I'm going to let myself off the hook about the pictures though. Most of them are plain and simple crummy snapshots. Super crummy. And that's ... OK.
April
Ella turned three! We had her party in the backyard with a bounce house by the golf course.
Also, Easter was fun! Both girls ADORE Aunt Pat.
May
Avery finished kindergarten. She had the best year! I made a little side by side comparison of the first of the year vs. the end of the year.
June
Avery turned six! She wanted to get her nails done and have me put makeup on her. Her party was at "the gymnastics place" again.
July
Ella got to start taking gymnastics because she finally was POTTY TRAINED!!
The girls spent a ton of time together. Lost of fighting, but lots of loving, too.
(I never got around to editing these two, but I still think they're cute.)
August
Avery started 1st Grade!
(don't know why these colors are so horrible ... yuk!)
September
Ella started preschool again and I'm a horrible mommy and didn't take any pictures. So I'll just show some cute random ones of her I snapped. I forgot to mention that her tooth came back down! Praise God!
October
We had our family pics taken by a photographer friend ...
Went to an SFA game with all our alumni friends ...
Avery won a 67 lb. pumpkin from her school carnival ...
Picked out pumpkins ...
Trick or treated ...
November
Had our yearly Thanksgiving get together in Grapevine with the Conklins. I can't find any of those pics. (Seriously hoping I didn't delete them off the memory card!) Attempted to get some good pics of the three granddaughters.
And now we're back up to date ... sort of!!
I've been absolutely busier than I ever could have imagined with my business. SUCH a blessing, but also super time-consuming. Now that things have slowed down, I'm hoping to do a better job of documenting my OWN family's precious moments.
