Lake Tahoe and Wedding Pics

We stayed in a great condo at Lake Tahoe for the wedding. It was fun to spend more time with family. Here's our welcome....

Too funny. :)

Some of the cousins.


So much to explore....

Cute little Amelia

Playing at Lake Tahoe.



On Friday we went to my Cousin Dustin's wedding to Tori. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the actual wedding. Just before and then at the reception. It was a beautiful ceremony.

My cute little family.




The groom

Mother of the groom Maree with Finley and I.

Aunt Maree gave all the little girls Bride Barbie's.....


And teddy bears for the babies.

The Best man (and brother of the groom) Beau toasting the newly married couple.

The stunning newlyweds.

Mother/son dance

My cousin Beau with his cute girlfriend (and Maid of Honor) Dixie.

Finley with her awesome Grandma. You can tell she loves being a grandma, huh!?


The wedding was a 40's theme and here are Bridget and Maura dancing to the cool swing band.



I love these last 2 pictures with my girls worn out after the wedding and sleeping with their bride Barbie's.

Welcome to Reno

When we arrived in Reno 2 days before my Cousin Dustin's wedding we were welcomed with a BBQ at my Aunt Maree's house.

7 Peaks Water Park

We took the kids plus cousin Ashleigh to Seven Peaks water park in Utah. It was nearly 100 degrees and we stayed for over 6 hours so there were a few sunburns, but it was worth it!!

Finley loved the wave pool. It was so cute to watch those chubby little legs kick with excitement!


Best buds Bridget and Ashleigh.


Avery doing her best model pose with the slides in the background.

Darling Ashleigh.


And here's my sweet Bridget too.


LOVE this baby!


Hot hubby. ;)

Our Trip Part I

We've returned from our first driving vacation in 5 years. Our drive was one big loop-- home to Salt Lake City; SLC to Reno; Reno to Tahoe; Tahoe to Sacramento; then back home again. We were a little nervous about how the kids would do. Finley had a bit of a rough time, I believe because she is still rear-facing in her car seat, but all in all the kids did great!

Avery with her neck pillow.....$2 well spent!


Finley--8 1/2 months old

4th of July


Just a few snapshots from our fabulous 4th of July....







Girls Only Movie Night....(plus dad's)

We had our fellow 3 daughter family over for dinner, movie and games.


These girls love each other....so cute.

1/2 Marathon #4

Here are me and my girls shortly after completion of the half-marathon. I finished, but about 10 minutes slower than my previous 3 (pre-Finley). I'm running another one in October so I have 2 1/2 months to cut down on my time.
