Father's Day We spent Father's Day at my Dad's house. We had a blast! They have 3 horses, 3 going on 4 dogs, a 4 Wheeler, and lots of land. We spent the day outside playing. I have so many good pictures it was hard to choose (it may look like I didn't chose, but I did leave some out!).

We went to our neighbor's wedding today at Blair Acres. It was a very beautiful outdoor venue not too far from where we live. Thankfully the weather cooperated, but we got nervous a couple of times. We took Taylor to the wedding with us which was so cute to watch. Taylor is going to be the flower girl in her uncle Brian's wedding in August. We took this opportunity to teach Taylor about weddings and give her a visual of the flower girl's job. She had fun practicing walking down the aisle throwing flower petals. Taylor was so sweet when the bride walked down the aisle, she turned to us and said, "Daddy I LOVE her dress!" A very precious father/daughter dance. The reception

Taylor got her 2nd haircut. This time we "chopped" a little more off to even things out and make her hair look a little thicker. She's got her mommy's hair! A little special daddy/Hailey time. Kevin has been working in California so the girls are thrilled to see him when he's home on the weekends. Last Friday we took advantage of our regular weekly BBQ time to focus on a special birthday, Kevin's dad, Ken. We had family and friends here to celebrate. For those of you who have yet to join us we're extending another invitation - every Friday at 6:30pm (rain or shine) and no RSVP needed. Opening presents. He's still a kid at heart! The Moberg family with the special soon to be Mrs. Moberg, Brian's fiance Susanne.

Updates Hailey Well our baby is 9 months old! At her 9 month check-up she weighed 15lbs 13oz putting her in the 6th percentile and is 27 3/4" long, 45th percentile. The doctor wasn't overly concerned about her size, but would like to see her in another month to do a weight check. She said at this stage they burn so many extra calories by fighting gravity as they learn to crawl/walk. Her prescription - more food! What a problem, right? In fact, we are supposed to add butter to her rice cereal, doctors orders. We aren't concerned in least, she is a very active, happy, busy girl. She doesn't have time to eat she's got a big sister to keep up with! Taylor Taylor is now 2 3/4 years old! This morning Kevin asked Taylor, "Taylor when are you going to go potty on the toilet?" Taylor's response was, "When I am 1 year old!" Kevin said, "Taylor you're already 1. You are 2 and 3/4." To this Taylor exclaimed, "I'm missing a quarte...

Hailey's Dedication Sunday, May 31st was Hailey's dedication. Kevin and I were asked to chose a verse for Hailey and we chose Colossians 3:17 which says, "And whatever you do or say, let it be as a representative of the Lord Jesus, all the while giving thanks through him to God the Father." Our prayer is that Hailey will lead a life that glorifies the Lord in all that she does, living as a representative of Christ. We are so blessed and thankful that God has trusted us with two precious children. I messed up and posted the pictures in reverse order (I know you've heard this before=). This is the family celebrating afterwards. We took this specific picture to capture 4 generations in one gathering. On the left is Great-Grandma Florek, Tabitha and Hailey, Great-Grandma Smith and Taylor, Grandma Debbie. The gang! Thank you all for coming to covenant with us! We had a great day with you! Praying for Hailey
