My little helper

Kinsley asked me if she could wash Maverick's bowls for him. What a sweet girl, and a great helper!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

Happy Father's Day to all you dad's! 

Life is nothing without you!

One day vacation

About 2 weeks ago Keith, Kinsley and I visited Grandpa and Grandma at Amelia Island. We had lots of family fun! We decided to rent a paddle bored, which we all got to enjoy. We even took turns taking Kaleb and Kinsley out on the board. With all the stress we have going on, it was nice to have a one day vacation. 

Here are some pictures from that day:

I love this one:

The happy couple:

I even got to snap a quick picture of Nole:

Kinsley's first ballet recital

Kinsley had her first ballet recital on May 31st, 2014. We were beyond proud of her. Knowing how Kinsley is a shy and reserved little girl, I was worried about how she would do. She proved me wrong and then some. She did amazing. It honestly brought tears to my eyes. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. She is growing up so quickly. 

Here is my beautiful ballerina on her special day:

Look at that pose. Talk about someone coming out of their shell:

Here are the girls coming out onto the stage. Kinsley is the third girl from the left:

(the pictures are that good)

The song they danced to was called the Airplane Song. Kinsley is still third from the left:

And they are off and flying:

Look closely at those ballerina toes:

After the show:

5 year anniversary

Keith and I just celebrated our 5 year anniversary on May 30th, 2014. I can honestly say it has been the best 5 years of my life. So much has happened in the last 5 years. I got a career vs a job. I got my health back thanks to Keith. Keith has become a paramedic. He placed high on his promotional exam and is next in line to be promoted within the fire department. He has also gone back to school and is still there and on his way to becoming a nurse. We had Kinsley, the greatest milestone of all. We brought our first home together. We lost a member of our family, Bacchus. We have traveled to places we have never seen. Tried things we have never tried. We have done so much in 5 years and we have done it all together. I am looking forward to the next 5 years and many more!
