our summer

so as you can see by the many photos below, we have been very busy (either that or i am just a slacker at keeping things posted). this summer has just flown by, I am not sure where all the time has gone. we would have loved to do more than we actually did, but there never seemed to be time. we are both still busy with work. brock has been doing side projects as well, the biggest has been my sister's wedding. he was the photographer and did an amazing job, and because he is a perfectionist, he is still not finished working on her photos....he has spent countless late nights making them all look awesome! Addison is growing like a weed, and she is not a baby anymore she is a "BIG Girl". she is miss independent and soaks everything in. we have a few videos that i will try to post one of these days. she can count to 13 (that is the number of stairs we have to the basement). she knows her ABCs and her colors are coming along. she loves to read books and help mommy in the kitchen. we are still working on potty training...that is not going so well. she just doesn't really care. she will go on the toilet every once in a while, but only by accident. she loves to sit on the toilet and "try" to go to the bathroom to get a piece of candy, but doesn't actually go. everytime she sees a baby, she tells me that she is going to have a baby sister on saturday...not sure where that came from. maybe someday. she loves wearing pretty dresses and would wear them all day everyday if we let her. she is such a blessing to us and just looking at her makes me smile. well, that is enough about out little kiddo for now. i hope you all enjoy the photos.

Yellowstone Park





We made a quick weekend trip to Yellowstone National Park with my little sister, Nichole and had such a good time. we could have stayed there for a week and still not seen everything we would have liked to. here are a few shots of what we did see.
