It is a good thing that Abigail has an adventurous Papa, cause she loves to go and explore!!  Today we went out to Eklutna lake and walked around and threw rocks in the lake.  Later I asked Abigail what her favorite part was and she said the hiking!  I am so excited to have a hiking buddy once I can actually hike again.  This girl loves to be on the move!

A view of the lake.  Papa and Abbi headed down to go throw rocks

One of Kenny's favorite things to do is to throw rocks into water.  She will pick up rocks all the time and ask if we can go find a puddle.  She had a blast!

Action shot..........heave!!

I had to get this shot of two cute bums for future blackmail.

1....2....3...throw!!!

It is truly a gorgeous lake!!!

Finley getting in on the fun.  She picked up her own rock.

All smiles for this cutie.

After tasting the rock a couple of times, Finley decided her binkie was much better!

Can't see it here, but we thought we saw a bear across the lake.  Turns out it was a moose.

Snack time!

Headed home........how cute is that?

My adorable girls!  Sure do love when they are buddies.  

 It is not a trip without ice cream.  The girls had a great time posing for pics here.

This girls makes me laugh.  She was yelling into the bike rack for the echo.

My sweet baby.  Finley will crawl on anything, gravel, grass, concrete.  She is so different from her sisters.

What a fun time we had with Grandma and Papa today.  We are so blessed to have them so close by and that they love us so much!!!  Here is to many more adventures!

Abbi's Ballet Showcase

This year was our first year of dance and we loved it!  We decided to put Abigail in Alaska Dance Theater, which meant driving to Anchorage once a week, but it was worth it!  After dance class, Abbi would ask me...."how many more days until dance class?"  Dance days were the best days!!

For the end of season showcase, the girls performed at the Discovery Theater at the PAC.  This is a shot of all of the ballerinas waiting to go back stage.

This is Abigail with her teacher, Miss Erica.

In the theater waiting for her turn to go dance. 

Abigail's class were the birds in the story Peter and the wolf.  She makes one cute bird if you ask me!

Abbi is smack dab in the middle.

 Before she went on stage she told me she might get nervous.  We talked about having fun and just enjoying it.  Abbi is quite the shy little thing, so I was worried!!

Abigail did AWESOME!  She loved it!  After the show she told me, "Mom, I wasn't even nervous!"  So proud of her!  Way to go sis!!!

Finley Fun

My baby girl is growing up!!!  She is my most curious baby yet.  She loves to open drawers, cabinets, toilet, etc.  I have never had a curious baby.  Finley definitely keeps me on my toes.

 This blue eyed beauty has tons of personality.  She loves to laugh and dance.  Finley knows what she wants when she wants it!!!

 I LOVE her laugh!!

We adore our sweet Finley!!
