Blessings

I am so excited to finally get this together. We went to the beach last week with Jon's parents for a vacation. We decided to drive since Soley did not have a good flight experience last tim ( I don't know if you could even call it fair, considering she screamed for the entire 2 hour flight and I cried right along with her knowing we had another 2 hour flight coming. Oh ya, if you are wondering she screamed for that entire flight too!) Anyways she did great in the car on the way there we made it 5 hours before we stopped for the first time, we stayed the night 7 hours into the trip and on the way home we drove straight through. Overall she did great!

This video shows almost everything that we did that week, we had the best time and we were so sad to have to come home. Soley just loves Jon's parents, she played every minute of the day with them. Jon and I even got to go see a movie and dinner one night, we have not seen a movie out in almost 2 years! It was so much fun! We hope to go back again next year to the beach.

I titled this video blessings because that is truly what Jon's parents are. I can't imagine Soley's life or ours with out them. Soley is totally in love with the both of them and enjoys every minute that she gets with them. They truly are christ centered people who love Soley more then anything in the whole world. We hope and pray someday that they will join us here in Kentucky to make even more memories. Steve and Karen I hope you love this video, what great parents you were to Jon raising him to know and love the lord. I can't wait to see how you influence Soley over the years.

Keeping busy in the car on the way to the beach!

Soley can already work the ipad! She is so smart!

First day of school???

The other day I helped out at a mothers day out program in the 1 year old classroom, since this was Soley's first official day of "school" with her mommy as a teacher we took her picture before we left! She was by far the smartest and cutest little girl there. She had so much fun playing with the other kids, it was a little overwhelming at first but she did great. I have been working with Jon on the idea of homeschooling so we will see how it goes this fall in our preschool that I am doing at home with her, haha! So much fun!
