Gymnastics!

We've discovered a really great gymnastics studio that offers "free play" every Thursday. I think we'll become regular visitors! We had so much fun! The other girl in the picture is June's best friend in the whole wide world, Greysen.

And brother Max enjoyed it too! 

His friend (eating his head), is Greysen's little sister, Lilly.

Baby Max!

He's a keeper. Even his sister thinks so! Last night while she was sleeping, and I laying next to them both, she opened her eyes, pulled the blanket up to the baby's neck, and went back to sleep. It was a very sweet moment! We love to watch them growing to be friends!

And this is Max (7 months) indulging in his first attack-style watermelon feast. Yum! He lovveed it.

And June watching Max eat watermelon!

Summer fun is almost done!

Well, it's hard to believe summer is almost over! Despite terribly hot and humid days, we have had such a great summer, and made so many wonderful memories. The nearby boardwalk is never short on family fun, and has been one of June's favorite activities this year. They offer carnival rides, face painting, kid's games, music, and oh my, Dora and Spongebob characters every week! We'll miss those nights this fall for sure.

Welcome!

So, this post marks the first post in our new family blog! We just want our dear family and friends to be able to keep up with our ever-changing family whenever they want. We've had some whirlwind years as of late. Hope you enjoy!

First, Loren and I made a big move from our home in Montana, to set up roots in North Carolina. Although it has not been without its challenges, we are growing to love Carolina Beach. Not long after our big move, we found out we were expecting a baby! We were very shocked to say the least! But 9 months later we gave birth to our wonderful daughter June Anais, who is now a big 3 year old, and a big sister! Our much anticipated son Maxwell Edison made his entrance into the world in January of 2010, so he's still just a tiny baby boy. We feel so blessed and just, beyond words, to have such amazing kids. We couldn't be more overjoyed. Some things remain tight, but overall we are loving life.

Stay tuned!
