Especially when its nice enough to finally go out and play :) This summer we were all waiting for our downtown park to open and when it did, it was amazing!! The weather was perfect, not too hot like it had been all summer... just perfect! We met Greg and Kim with Dakota and had a lot of fun! Cannot wait to enjoy this park more this spring! There is so much to do down there!! I will add more pictures soon :)

other all day and be happy!!

Shave and A...

...Haircut, Six Pence...

Walker James got his first ever hair cut on Saturday!! After getting told our daughter was beautiful, which Walker James looks no where near like a girl, Michael thought it was about time to cut the long blond off . I didn't think I would ever be the type to care about a hair cut, but I am now that person! I know it will grow back but it was just so cute the way it waved it in the back... like my dad's hair!

Walker James...

...such a big boy!

He looks so big now...

...still such a sweet pea!
