Little Bits of Summer...

The first little bits of summer, according to my iPhone...

We went to our first Diamondbacks game last week. It was so fun. Great stadium, great fans. I think I found my new favorite National League baseball team. I love that baseball has two separate leagues so I can cheer for the Mariners AND the D-backs and not feel guilty.

Oh, and we got free VIP passes to stand on the field for a David Crowder concert after the show. Can I just say that David Crowder is one of my favorite music artists of all time? I remember seeing him at UBC in Waco when I was just a wee little freshman in college. And in case you were worried that there would be no more good music from Crowder after his band broke up this winter, worry no more!
His new music is amazing.


Baby Claudia is here {that's hot mama on the right}. Surprise gender. Surprise name. Adorable newborn.
{P.S. I get giddy when I see Micah hold a baby…}


Pedicure. Yes, please. This is how I like to celebrate the start of summer.


We hosted a big breakfast for dinner at our place last weekend. Waffles, pancakes, cinnamon rolls, sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs and coffee… at 7pm… best meal ever. And, yes, Kim and I are romper twins.


Two big sisters just taking pics on the iPhone…


Red Robin chocolate shake… splurge! So worth it.


Just got my first rolls of washi tape from Etsy. So excited to use them!


Feeding Sadie K. her first strawberry in a weird little net thing that she chewed on to get the juice out. 
I have so much to learn as a mom…


Hope you are having a lovely start to your week!
Also, I am sharing my heart over at Covered in Grace today. I'd love for you to stop by!

Glad to see you are having fun! Jealous you saw David Crowder, and happy to hear good things about his new music (definitely not expecting anything otherwise though!). Hitting up a Diamondbacks game will probably be one of the first fun things we do once we get there. I've already decided I'm going to love the D-backs (my new #2 team), thank goodness they are National League. I could never root for an AL team against my Rangers!

Where did you get your washi tape?? I've been wanting to get some for a while now but just haven't yet. I was looking at Freckled Fawn because I love all the bright colors!!

And ps- I've never heard of that mesh net thing either. There are all kinds of crazy contraptions out there now!

Ok this is so random but I think I saw you at LGO this morning. I was with a friend and her mom and saw you sitting at the table next to us. Ha. I had to come home and check your blog to see if it was you. If it wasn't, I think i found your twin. :) If you're ever going back to LGO again we should meet up.I'm always looking for an excuse to go eat there.

Hello there, found you through the blog hop. That pic of you and Sadie at the bottom is Soooo cute! What a doll. I cheer for two teams also, Mariners because we live in Seattle and Bo Sox because my family of origin is all from Braintree MA. They are opposing teams and usually I defer to Bo sox because the Mariners usually lose :( sad but true. Great pics. Happy to be your newest member here.
