Once a week our Doctors Hospital Spouse Support group gathers for playgroup and we LOVE it! Today we went to the "Bunny Fountains" in Dublin for some fun in the sun. 
Kelly, Angie and Britt bake in the sun as our kids run wild.
This year Brinley is having a Hawaiian Luau birthday party right in our backyard! Complete with a pool, tramp, sprinklers, beach balls, grass skirts, flower bracelets & necklaces and a tropical fish pinata. We hope the little girls will have a blast!
We are SO happy today to have Daddy at home instead of on call. This morning he and Brinley made pancakes and she specifically requested that he "make a Mickey Mouse pancake just like my grandma does." So here we have Brinley's Mickey Mouse pancake! Avery also enjoyed her fair share of Daddy's home made pancakes.
We are confident that our little miss Avery will be able to succeed at whatever she puts her mind to in life. Here is a little example of her everyday determination to get just 
She notices Brinley from across the room with a cup of water and makes a mad dash crawl over to her big sister.
As she arrives to her destination she attempts to grab the cup by crawling on top of Brinley.
Unable to reach the cup she wobbles back and forth, on top of Brinley, trying to stretch her arm out to the desired object and both girls tumble over onto the floor.
A fond farewell to my ladies who stamped these past 10 months with me in my first official Ohio Stamp Club! Even though 5 of you were out of town and others unable to attend our final club night, I will MISS those of you who are not continuing on in a July club! I hope you all keep enjoying Stampin' Up and I would love to have you stop by anytime, especially if you bring projects you have made! A portion of Brinley's bedtime prayer tonight:
"Heavenly Father, we are so grateful that Jesus is resurrected and will never have to be nailed on the cross again...or be hit, or be scratched."
Our Intern Year At A Glance:
What a wonderful time we had with Aunt Kelty last week! Right from the first morning Kelty was with us Brinley decided that she did not want Mommy to help her out anymore. Every time we would get out of the car, walk in the street, get dressed, etc... she would say "I want Aunt Kelty to hold my hand" or " I want Kelty to strap me into the car." Brinley loved creating amazing sidewalk chalk drawings of my little ponies with her artist Aunt and going swimming with her. I selfishly enjoyed having the extra help and it was nice to be relieved of my playmate role for a few days. One night Kelty and I went to the Melting Pot and relished a delicious fondue style dinner complements of Grandma Ginger! We miss you already Kelty!
