Little of This, Little of That

Friday before last was the kids last day of school. Last year, we got Braums. This year, they requested Buffalo Wild Wings, which has turned out to be their favorite place to eat.

The next morning, we took Jordan for coffee (because he is old enough for that now, apparently) at the Brass Bean, which is our local GP coffee shop. There was this nice group of people there and this man read the girls a really cute poem. He was so very nice.

I say coffee but it's really more like lots of creamer with coffee in it.

One of my dreams as a parent is to be able to be home for a summer and take my kids to the water park. I guess it's because I have a lot of great memories of my mom taking us as kids. This might be the only summer I get a chance to do this so I am going to take full advantage. We got passes to Hawaiian Falls and have already been four times! It's definitely worth it and I am looking forward to going more!! Avery makes a friend every time we go.

We bring snacks and eat and play. Then eat and play. Then eat and play!

Jordan and Sophia got to go with us, which was great fun!

It was a very good day.

I love it when God smiles upon us. I mean, He smiles upon us all the time. But sometimes, it's like sunshine, and Christmas morning, and rainbows, and babies, and awesomeness. On steroids. And I know that those times are not always permanent, so I learn to really wrap myself in His goodness, to take it all in, be happy, and just sit back and wait to see what He is going to do in my life.
We have been struggling so long. I knew it was only a matter of time before things would be OK again. Where we would feel a little stability. Where we would take all of the things we learned while struggling and apply then when times are good.
We have alot of great things going on in our lives right now. Some really great things. Some amazing, mindblowing, off the grid kind of great things. I wish I could share more, but for right now, let's just say that we are incredibly blessed with some great opportunities God is putting in our lives.
I leave you with a gorgeous picture of our biggest blessin…

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best. So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System. This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This system really exfolia…

Dancing With Dad

I have been working on a project these last couple of weeks for my previous company. Yesterday, I was working on my computer and heard roaring laughter coming from Avery's room. I walk in and found Jason and Avery dancing and singing away.

By sheer coincidence, this popped up on my Timehop today. Avery was only 1 in this picture.

Boy, are these kiddos lucky to have such a great dad! It makes me heart melt.
