Happy Father's Day Truman!

Elle made her Daddy this tie at Joy School & he proudly wore it to church today!

Here is the little sailor that made this cute guy a Daddy!

Elle sure loves her Daddy & she is sure lucky to have him. 

She is the first thing she asks for in the morning!

We have a Daddy's girl on our hands...

Here's some of the reasons we both love him so much:

-Truman can't wait to get home from work to see his girls

-He jumps with Elle on the trampoline while they listen to Princess music

-He dances with her and does twirls and dips

-He tells her as many Princess stories as she wants while she lays on him

-He takes her on bike rides 

-They play bumper bikes in the backyard

-He takes her for Saturday doughnut dates

-He changes them into swimsuits and will run through he sprinklers with her

-He takes her to the water park

-He takes her to the zoo

-He takes her on hikes

-He takes her swimming

-He'll build tall towers for her and let her knock them down

-He builds big forts & landing pads for her for chase

-He'll build dance floors for all her Princesses

and one of my favorites...

-He'll snuggle her in her glider many nights before bed & sing her songs as she falls asleep

We are both lucky to have this Daddy in our life!

Happy Father's Day Truman!

Disneyland & California Adventure Fun!

30 weeks prego & trying to squeeze in some family vacations before this baby boy comes!

We drove down to Southern Cal for a two day trip to Disneyland & California Adventure. Elle did amazingly great during the 8 hour drive with only a couple of stops. We came just the day before of the 60th Diamond Anniversary of Disneyland, this was purposeful! It was fun to see all the diamond decor but not dealing with the park being at maximum occupancy! Elle was in absolute Heaven and just wanted to see Princesses and go inside castles all. day. long. She loved Sleeping Beauty's Castle and loved all the other little girls dressed up like her. She still keeps asking to go back to "Lizleeland".

"I'm On a Boat"

Our brother-in-law Mark took us out in the boat he built to an enormous sand bar! You launch in deep water on the docks and then rode out about a mile or two and then the water gets this shallow! Truman towed us the rest of the way and we put the anchor down & got out to explore and snorkel.

The water was beautiful and clear

Elle loved that she could walk around in it and not get hit by any waves

It was fun to have a new adventure and do something in Hawaii we had never done before :)
