The North Pole

On Selah's birthday we went to the North Pole - a Christmas themed amusement park geared toward smaller kids. It was so much fun!! GiGi and PopPop came with us as well as my Aunt Susie and her grandkids - Devin and Zander. The best thing was that Gabe was able to ride most of the rides - and he tried them all!

Daddy and Gabe on the World's Highest Ferris Wheel!
This Rocket went so fast! Gabe held on with all of his might and kept his head down the entire time. But when it stopped, he was ready to go again!

Gabe and Zander being Firemen!

Devin and I spinning like crazy!

This was Selah's favorite! It is this HUGE winding slide - she would giggle the whole way down!

PopPop and Devin driving the mini cars.

Memaw and Gabe share this facination with nutcrackers. You should see Memaw's collection! So when we saw this bigger than life nutcracker - we had to get Gabe's picture with it!

Selah's Birthday Cake!

We celebrated Selah's birthday on Monday (July 6th) by going to The North Pole (a Christmas Themed amusement park) and then we had Fajitas and birthday cake that evening. Selah LOVED her cake! I got so many cute pictures!! Here are a few:

A princess cake for the birthday princess.

Not quite sure of it yet....

"Ok, I'll give it a try..."

"Hmmm....that cake is pretty good!"

"But the icing is better!"

"Here, Daddy, you try some."

"I think I'll try the plate now!"

"Now there's a party in my tummy!"

Happy Birthday, Selah!

Selah turned ONE on Monday, July 6!

More pictures of her party, Gi-Gi and Pop-Pop's visit and a visit from the Froese boys (our nephews) to come!!

Are we bored-or what?!?

Ok...I took these a few weeks ago. This is what happens when you are stuck inside during a long, cold winter!! We had a blast trying on our fake facial hair and taking pictures of our goofy selves!!

Gabe actually took this picture. I helped him hold my big ole camera, though.

Winter is finally about over here. Although I woke up this morning and it was 35 degrees outside. Our highs have been in the low 60's with lots of wind...we are definately ready for summer!!

11 months old!

It's hard to believe that Selah will be one year old next month! Where does time go?!? She is such a sweet girl. She loves baby dolls and rubber duckies. She is walking all over the place and trying to keep up with big brother. She is still tiny, weighing in at 16 pounds and still wearing 3 to 6 month clothes. She is our princess!!

10 month Tiny Dancer

Selah is 10 months old today! How did that happen? She is walking and pulling up on everything. And she has - get this - EIGHT teeth!! Enjoy the pictures of our "Tiny Dancer".

Look at her foot resting on the bar .... I think she may have a future as a ballerina!

Such a precious gift that God has blessed us with!

Cinco de Mayo Celebration!

In March we celebrated St. Patrick's Day with yummy food, games, and music. Yesterday we celebrated Cinco de Mayo by joining the Eberhart family at the restaurant Casa Grande where Nathan performed in a Maraichi Band!! They were great, the food was great, it was an awesome way to celebrate Cinco de Mayo!

Nathan singing and playing violin.
Gabe joined in by playing the shaker! He knew at least half of the songs they sang!

Singing "De Colores"

What a fun time! Wish you all could have been there!
