A Touch Of Tyrell

Today is Everett's birthday… but first I must post what we did the day before he turned 5. First I took Everett and Breckie to the first movie of the summer movie program which was The Lorax. We met the Miller boys and Julia there.  As soon as that was over we met my Mom, Bridget, and Braxton in the parking lot. They had driven from Colorado to spend a few days with us so second, we went to lunch.  We went home, let Breckie nap, made cake and cupcakes for Everett's party, and then picked up Jake on our way to dinner and goofy golfing.  Jake + Breckie = TWINS!!! Dear dinner, I loved you. Love, me.  I didn't know it before, but behind Joe's Farm Grill is a garden so we walked around and took a few goofy pictures after dinner.  After we were stuffed and had 28 new misquote bites each, we went goofy golfing. (Also known as miniature golf but I've always called it goofy golfing and no one ever knows wha...

Everett pulled out a few great "tricks" during his 5-year photos. After that picture I wanted to call it quits because I knew it'd be my new favorite picture. I just love it SO much it's ridiculous! My heart melts looking at how handsome and mature he keeps getting. It's almost like I want to slow down time (even though I've been waiting for him to be 5 for so long!) I absolutely love all of those pictures but his funny pictures are even better. I (obviously) didn't ask him to pose in any of these and I wasn't even prepared for 90% of them… he did them all on his own. After a few pictures he had to stop for a potty break and came right back out and then told me he was all out of tricks! Here are the funnies: I feel like everyone should get the opportunity to raise a little person. Your heart is so unprepared to love someone so much!

For the past few Saturdays Jake has been working on a project for me so I took the kids to Schnepf Farms to check out the peaches and play on the farm while he worked.  We've been crazy lucky this year and it hasn't really gotten HOT yet. Saturday was only like 82 which is totally unheard of so we had to take advantage of it.  The peaches smelled amazing but we didn't actually end up picking any (which I'm regretting!!). We did take a lot of selfies though and I'm not regretting any of them :) If you'd like to be entertained then just scroll through them and look at Breckie! I wasn't planning on taking 'nice' pictures but I had my camera and these two are just so hilarious...  Oh Breckie! She's a professional nose-picker. We left the peach trees and headed for the main farm. I asked her if she wanted to smell the flowers... Everett kept in...
