Peach Party

It was time for one of our favorite summer highlights!  We got new shirts again for The Peach Tree...KEEP CALM and EAT A PEACH.  They turned out so cute!

Our favorite Mimi and Auntie BB!

These are some of my favorite girls EVER.

Loved seeing you B&C out there at the Peach Party!

These are my cousins kiddos with our kiddos.  

Our older two have had an adorable bond that goes way back to when they were babies.

Now our little ones melt our hearts in a whole new way.

They are the cutest!

 One of our favorite babysitters, Miss Julie!

Ice cream with some of our sweetest friends.

I can't get enough of these 3 girls together.  Love them!

Our cutie patootie loved his snow cone a little too much!  HA!

The month of May

May brought some fun relaxed memories.

We still enjoy our walks to drop sissy off at school.

Sometimes it is just the kids and I,

 other times it feels like a mini party!

Those are our favorite times!

The month of May brought sweet family time...

with the Smittcamps,

and the Penner's...

(More on the family trip to Alameda is on Allie's blog HERE.)

Some work at home...

and at The Peach Tree (our fruit stand)

More work at home.

A broken sprinkler leads to this...muddy fun!

Our sweet friend Brooke visited for a week.  So thankful for her!

We got a cute pic of Austin with his favorite Opa

 and his favorite cousin Jedidiah at the park.

Mother's Day fun...

And some good ole frosting fun making cupcakes for...

 one of our favorite girls, Julie.

 Aubrey Rose loves to find new friends in our yard. ;)

Her worm she named Muddy.

She named her frog Swimmy.

Her caterpillar thing (I don't even know what this was!) was named Hairy.

Her grasshopper was named Amber.

(The name Amber through us off a little bit.  

It was the first normal name she gave one of her friends.  HA!)

And we managed to fit in a little bit of play as well...

June has come too quick.  We are looking forward to all the swim fun ahead, with not much scheduled.  :)  Well, besides peach season of course!  As much as we love peaches, it also brings a very busy season for Blake.  Time to gear up for it!  It is almost here!

Peach Party tonight!!

Tonight in Old Town Clovis we are celebrating our annual Wawona's Peach Party!  Come say hi and enjoy some samples of our favorite fruit at the Farmer's Market tonight from 5:30 to 8:30.  Can't wait to see you there!  :)

Lots of updates!

We have been a little MIA here on this blog.  Definitely not intentional!  I am not quite sure if I have a good excuse, but one thing I have realized is when you take a break, it is easy to think blogging is just one more thing to do in our busy world, so why do it?  :) The thing I do LOVE about blogging, is this documents our world, our life, our memories.  I started our blog 4 years ago when Aubrey Rose was born and I absolutely love being able to look back at sweet memories.  Even more so, I would love for my kids to have a place to go to see the fun things we did as they grew up.  So I press on!

And where best to begin?

We will start with a picture of my two favorite little ones.  These two precious babies have been keeping me on my toes and there is nowhere else I would rather be.

Our sweet 4 year old girl...

Our busy one year old boy...

We have had lots of walks and park fun...

some of our favorites are with our cousin Jedidiah.

 

 But our absolute favorite is when Daddy can meet us for lunch on his golf cart!

At home, we have been doing a ton of work, especially in the backyard...

One more view...

We are finishing the brick work this week!  Almost done!  YAY!
Another thing that has taken up WAY more time than I would have ever expected was landscaping.  There are TOO many options!  Once you choose a flower, then there are a bunch of varieties to choose from too!  Felt like never ending!

Outside of the home, we got to work a shift at our family fruit stand, The PeachTree.  The kids loved it!  And I loved watching Aubrey work because she wanted to, not because she was asked.  :)

At the end of the day, I asked her what her favorite part was, she said, "That will be one dollar, two dollars, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!"  Hahaha!!

We got to help Daddy at his work too.

In the midst of the work days, we have had some sweet family time as well.

U is for Underground Gardens.  AMAZING opportunity here in our valley!  We loved it!  We HIGHLY recommend you check it out.  The kids loved it.  Well, maybe not the 1 year olds, but the 4 year olds did!

One last project is one of my favorites.  Blake's mom and I started a little business.  It is called My Sweet Threads.  We specialize in personalized embroidered anything!  Towels, baby clothes, burp towels, bibs, t-shirts, swimsuit cover-ups, anything!  Check out our Facebook page HERE for more ideas.  The possibilities are endless.  If you see something embroidered that you want to replicate, check with us, hopefully we can help!

I loved these cute Valentine shirts Linda made for Aubrey and Austin for Valentines Day.  We have some fun 4th of July options too!  So fun!

Like I said, the possibilities are endless!  :)  

So hopefully I caught you a little up to speed on our world.  Lots of fun in between, but at least you know we are still here.  :)
