A Bit of Spring

I know, yes I have slacked on my blog! But so much has happened so I thought I should try catching up! This spring has already been so busy but it has been super fun as well! We have had weiner roasts, BBQ's, camping(at multiple places) picked up our English Buds, Fathers Day, horseback riding, birthday lunches, quading in the flooded river bottom, swimming and much more! Looking back at how fun our spring was it has me pumped for summer! Andin and I love to spend as much time as we can with our families and friends so I imagine its gonna be 'epic'! I love the way summer makes me feel, the way the sun can bronze your skin and make you look and feel alive after a long brutal winter! I love spending time at the cabin (we are off to there for the weekend today and back in Raymond for the 1st!). Just being able to be outside on the lake in the sun all day just makes me a much happier person and I am sure everyone agrees with that! But to explain my spring I thought I would do it with pictures as that's why people are here to look at that!

 So funny story we thought it would be a good idea to catch a seagull so we put Jimmy (then Parker) under this blanket with bread on top and the birds swooped... but never bit. We threw the bread on Jimmy though and he thought it was a bird and I haven't ever seen him jump up so fast and so scared! Priceless!

 More campfire fun

...and last but not least Happy belated Father's Day to the best dad I could ask for! I think saying I am a daddy's girl is a huge understatement. I love getting the quality time with my dad even if it is just running into Raymond to grab a treat we just love to spend that 1 on 1 time together! I trust my dad completely with everything and know I will be getting the best advice when I ask for it! I still, with new things in marriage and such feel like I need daddy's approval to make sure it is a good decision. It is crazy how one person knows everything and always has the right answers! My dad taught me so much and I was lucky enough to have him as a coach as well which I felt extremely blessed for! My dad has the ability to make me laugh with ease! He may look stern and a little scary if you don't know him but those that do know he is one of the funniest most outgoing people when he is comfortable! I also feel super lucky to have my dads light blue eyes! When I was a kid I used to put my eyes next to his and say see mom look me and dad have the exact same eyes and I was so proud of it! I am lucky to have such a hard working dad who worked two jobs my whole life so we could do the things we wanted as kids and support each other always! he has truly taught me how important family really is and I will be eternally grateful for that! Love you dad and I look forward to many more fun years with you!

Love, Kenz
