Man oh man...I honestly don't know if I am going to be keeping up with our blog on a regular basis...but is therapeutic to look back through and see so many wonderful memories.  So...when I can, I will blog. :-)  This summer ended up being very busy.  Busier than usual.  My grandma was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer, we threw her a 90th birthday party, and she passed away August 10th.  It was that fast.  Then we recently went on a family vacation of a lifetime to Orlando and brought the girls' grandmas with us.  That was incredible.  As a family we suffered another loss, when our dog, Pizca passed away.  Looking forward to 2014 and hoping everyone stays happy and healthy!

Wowee zowee!!  We have been busy and more is to come!

  Summer is the time we travel and enjoy life with our family.

 Aaron and the girls before the big ballet show!

 The family here to celebrate the big ballet recital.  The girls were both in James and the Giant Peach...an incredible mix of a play/musical.  This was Ava's first big show and she shined!  Malia stepped it up a notch and did both ballet AND hip hop.  We heard a rumor that she has been recommended for mini company next year which is a huge honor!

 Love these girls!

 Auntie M came to Malia's special bbq at our school.  She even wore her uniform which had Malia feeling SO special!!!

Pretty much every  month we have a sleepover.  We are SO blessed to have two incredible families to do an overnight swap with.  The girls think the sleepovers are the best thing EVER!!!!

 

 MY GIRL!!!!  Hard to believe when I was a senior at Wilson High School, Jazzy was just born.  Now she has graduated from Wilson and I couldn't be more proud.  LOVE LOVE LOVE my practice daughter! :-)

 Auntie and the goddaughter!

Looking forward to our first trip to Chelan in a few weeks....these girls LOVE their cousins!

What a wonderful life!  With the beauty of facebook updates, many people are able to stay informed about our family. :-)  However, tomorrow marks a big milestone...Ava turns 4.  It is such a gift to watch my girls grow and become best friends.  We have had many wonderful experiences...here are some pictures to share the joy.
