Sunday Spotlight - on Monday

It was a very busy weekend...to busy for a Sunday post!

\

On Saturday

(after spending the night at Aunt Kristi and Uncle Shelbys Friday night!

YAY for date night!!)

Ava got a few belated birthday and gotcha day surprises!

She thought it was SO cool to get a package in the mail from the Clark family - 

 a watermelon swimsuit!

Alec said to me when she tried it on...."hey we eat those!"

And this shirt from Aunt Carol she thinks is amazing as well  

 Her reaction "Hey momma - we are holding hands to each other!" 

Saturday we worked around here all afternoon - raking and burning

and raking and burning some more.

On Sunday we roadtripped to The Clark household to install a dishwasher, hang out with our kiddos 

and meet the new addition to their  family - Miss Sophie!

(who is a rescued pup from one of the wonderful safe streets that Aaron patrols)

 

Erin was prepared for the wild threesome and had a pool for them to get crazy in. 

And I do mean crazy!

Sophie kept her distance while those 3 were being wild... 

And Claire just watched. 

But the minute they dried off - the attack was on! 

And Ava was ready!

Ayden of course screamed and jumped on the nearest chair.

Alec just ignored them.

The box from the dishwasher was great fun. 

When the older kids went shopping with Dad - Alec helped us finish up our landscaping project!

He must have made 10 trips with this watering can! 

Our end result was not perfection - but then again - it was an imperfect medium - and a pregnant lady and an old out of shape lady...and two dogs and 3 kids working on it - so not so bad when you consider that.

It will look really cool this summer full of blooming color!

This pregnant lady looks super amazing - due in just a couple months....

We are all just over the top excited to meet our newest family member

Miss Raena Joy.

Fun times indeed!
