Rilee's Baby Blessing

Our sweet Rilee Mathilde was blessed this last Sunday.

It was a very special day.

The blessing dress that Rilee is wearing

is the same dress that each of our girls have worn. 

Tyler's Aunt made it. 

We then have made a bow for each of them

and my sister-in-law has made them each a special little bracelet.

happy baby Rilee

Rilee is such a sweetheart!

We love having her in our family.

Alexa and Karli can't seem to get enough of her,

and Tyler and I think she is a little angel.

Three girls has gone well for us so far:)

They are each so different and fun

and make life CRAZY and full of JOY!

Isn't Rilee cute?  She is getting so big! 

It is so much fun having her around!

Our canal in behind our backyard has now been filled in with a big pipe.

They have plans to put a couple of trails there, but for now we call it the "dirt hills!" 

We've had fun going on little walks back there!

(that's where we were going in this picture)

We sure love making little Rilee smile!

Cousin Jade hung out at our home the other day...just like the good ol' days...

Summer is here and the weather is right (finally) and we are excited!

Oceanside May 2011

We had a great time in Oceanside

with our Shelley side of the family!

It was great getting together with everyone

(minus Garrett--missed you!) for a whole week!

Cute little Rilee spent most of her time all bundled up in the stroller!

She took some great naps!

A guy at the beach one day taught Tyler how to surf

and let him borrow his board for a little while.

Tyler LOVED it, and has been craving it ever since!

Everyone was headed out into the water...

well, Tyler beat everyone in by sprinting and doing a great big dive

...or belly flop...

Digging for sand crabs

The girls thought those were pretty cool!
