Holy Toledo A LOT has happened!

~We sold our house!!
~Nolan started reading a few weeks ago, it's so crazy, and has been so much fun!  He's 5, it's brilliant!
~Olivia and Nolan both finished school and are officially on summer break, yeah!
~We move out of our home in less than 2 weeks.  Very happy yet equally sad.  I love our home!
~Leo is inching towards 2 years old, talks up a storm, talking in complete sentences now, is such a funny little guy, is so loving/compassionate... and wants to be a big boy in every way!  I will try and post some videos soon.  His tiny voice is so sweet!
~My cousin is getting married(I am in the wedding) in a month, lots of family coming into town from Canada. 
~Olivia had her Dance recital, she loves dance, I love watching all the dancers, especially Liv :)
My life has pretty much revolved around packing and moving.  Like 24/7!  The kids have been pretty darn good considering.  The big kids have had a lot of fun packing up their things, they like taping boxes shut and labeling their goods with a black sharpie.  This has been a HUGE help to Shane & I.  For our breaks we've been taking lots of walks, ice cream shop visiting, and playing outside.  Packing with small children around is a funny thing, it's like a revolving door at times so I feel like we've been trying to get packed up forever. 
So glad it's SUMMER BREAK!  We will spend our summer at the lake soaking up the sun, playing in the water, taking long bike rides, trampoline jumping, hanging out by the campfire, and hopefully the kids can do lots of fishing with their Dad=FuN!
*Pictures pretty much go hand in hand with what I just wrote

My favorite girl & I headed out for Liv's dance recital

We heart dancing!  Isabel & Liv
Oops pictures got a bit out of order.  This was Liv's diorama of Nordstrom.  So cute!

SO EXCITING!  Our Realtor is amazing, truly!

Each time we load up our storage unit it's like playing a real life Tetris game
The best BiG sister!
Hip Hoppers!  With their sweet instructor Katie Bri~who is also a dancer at the studio, she wears many hats.  Was in several performances, she's amazing!
He Loves Art!  I had the worst migraine this day.  So the patio was perfect because I needed fresh air :/
This 5 year old boy is a joy!  He also says some of the cutest things.  The other day when I was really struggling with my allergies he said "mom everyone is allergic to pollum" I love it when he things he's pronouncing things the right way ;)
Love their shoulders!!  Um, their hair is so different, too cute!
Ice Cream break!
Enjoying the simple things in LiFe =)
