Happy 7th Birthday to my special girl!  She is sweet, sensitive, intuitive, slightly sassy, funny, caring, a great big sister, a truly loving daughter and we are so proud to be her parents!

We had a yummy lunch of cheese and chicken quesidllas made by Daddy!  Cara spent the afternoon playing with her new birthday toys with Grandma and Grandpa Abbott and then we celebrated her birthday at PF Changs with Grandma and Grandpa Fox, G & G Abbott,  and Aunt Cyndi.

 Will never stays asleep after we get somewhere and get him out of the car seat but he was apparently exhausted with celebrating all day

 Everyone came back to the house to celebrate with a homemade cherry cheesecake and homemade ice cream (requests from the birthday girl!)

 What a fun day spoiling and celebrating our little love!  She is growing up so fast but we are loving every minute!

Swimming at Camp Abbott

Can't get enough swimming while we are there! Will loved using the kickboard and swimming around and Cara has been practicing her swimming strokes and loves racing.

Weekend away at Camp Abbott

 Scott made this custom corn hole set for Grandma and Grandpa Abbott's birthday! (thanks to my mom for making the corn bags)

16 years ago!

16 years ago we said I do!  Today he is still my best friend and our love has grown deeper and deeper with all life has thrown our way!  I am so happy to be sharing my life, heart, and soul with the love of my life!

Happy Anniversary Love!

Cousins!

How hard is it to get 6 kids looking the same way and smiling at the same time, apparently now that hard because we got some cute cousin pictures! 

Cousins and best friends!

My boys!

Mike and Lisa hosted a cookout for the whole family on July 6th and it is so fun to see the cousins interact and play together!
