Insta grams!

 I have a lot of old instagrams that I have been meaning to post. I love catching little things Parker does so I can remember them. He is turning into such a big boy! 15 month post coming soon!

he thinks it's the most awesomest thing when he can "help" with the dishes. He usually ends up grabbing knives and other scary utensils so it usually doesn't last long.

Where has the time gone?!

Tahoe, Round 2

Camping at Sugar Pine Point with the Blodgetts was a blast. It was good to be back in the dirt camping again. Parker ate his fair share of dirt, and was covered in filth 95% of the time- but it was a lot of fun! 

These are a little late~ but still fun to share :)

Snippets of Lake Tahoe Vaca

My families annual Lake Tahoe Vacation was a blast, as usual. This year however, we opted out of usual campground camping to stay in a cabin just around the corner from the campground in the city of Tahoma. 

With the babies, and Nora only being 3 months old- we thought it'd be easier then camping in the dirt and bugs like we usually do. 

And with a busy 1 year old, I'm sure glad we did!

 Parker looooves the water. It didn't matter that it was 60 degrees or lower, he wanted to be in until his little feet were getting purple! :(

Beautiful Tahoe, with our favorite dock

Sweet little Parker decided he wanted to be an early riser on this trip! I think it had to do with the fact that his pack n' play was in the room we slept in, so he liked standing up at 6am and seeing us sleeping. Then he'd yell at us until we woke up and got him out! So in order to let the rest of the house sleep, we went for early morning walks. :)

"Want to try some sand mom? It's delicious!"

the beach was a lot of action for baby Nora!

Travis and abby enjoying the view together ;)

Of course a vacation would not be complete without a girls lunch to sunnyside cafe... so delicious. Carrie braided my hair all cool for the outing.  

My lunch- steak salad, yum

Brett is always amazed at how much dessert my family can pound in- this was no exception. this hula pie was so so good!

My crazy hubby going for a dip at 8pm- so cold!
