Animal Lovers!

Dax rode a horse! We are having him take some lessons and yesterday was his first! He did great, especially after Dax went over the side right at the beginning. Luckily his teacher caught him and only had a scare! I walked along side to make sure he stayed on. Shae found a friend while she was waiting with her Daddy. For some reason she needs to kiss dogs right on their mouth, it's gross and so cute! Brandon got to work on his photo skills Dax did so good brushing Stanley and was so excited that he was a white horse! (Well gray, but close enough for him!) We also watched this cute little guy the other day! I think we can call him my nephew. It was so much fun to have such a sweetheart follow me around all day!

Curls

I love this girls curly hair! She's such a wild child that it doesn't stay in place very long so we LOVE it when it's fresh! It also has a tendency to get out of control, and look like this!

Lovin the Bath

I know I've done pictures like this before, but the kids LOVE taking a bath and I can't help capturing it! For some reason they drink the water in any way that they can. Gross, I know!

Trend Alert!

Have you seen this new technique for toes? They're called Minx and are applied with heat to adhere to the nail. I had to try it out from the girls in our salon. There's anything from leopard print, rainbow, snakeskin, crossbones, chrome, plaid, camo, polka-dots, and lots more! I know it's kind of hard to tell from the picture but I went with the fishnet. I'm loving them, what do you think?

Someone is ready for the sun!

Dreaming for Dax

The annual "Walk Now for Autism Speaks" was this last weekend. We put a team together and called it, "Dreaming for Dax". Which says it all, and is pretty much the driving reason for doing it. For those who don't know, our son Dax has autism. This walk was actually one year from when he was diagnosed. Due to extremely good resources and therapy, Dax is a different kid from a year ago! The support of organizations like Autism Speaks and so many others, give families like ours hope. We appreciate everyone who showed up, hey there's no better motivation than popsicles after a cold walk! We bundled up in as many layers as we could and walked in cold rain and snow. This is actually the only picture we had from the day. I'm sorry we didn't get my dad who was taking the picture, Cam, Tia, or Barb in. You can't even see Dax, just his hat sticking out of the stroller. Oops! Thank you so much to everyone who donated!!! With your help, we were able to raise a lot of money! Every bit of that money goes to Autism Speaks, who does SO MUCH for Autism and families effected by it. We love you all, and while I'm at it, thank you so much for your prayers, support, and love this last year especially! We would be in a completely different place if it wasn't for it.
