We hope you have a great birthday and we love you so much!!

Summer is here!! Let's hit the pool!!

Mom and Dad recently had a pool put in the backyard and it's GORGEOUS!!!!

They put water in it this week so Ross and I headed over for a swim!

They still have to finish thepainted stone, fence, and plants around the pool but mom is so excited water is in the pool that we can all finally go swimming!!

The lovely waterfall

I jumped right in!
Ross and Dad decided to join me for some pool fun!

This is where we will be on our off days!! :)

aren't they just so cute!!

The past few days Ross and I have had some time off to
enjoy the sweet summertime!

I went to the pool with Alina and had great girl time all morning long!! We brought snacks and enjoyed getting a tan in a little bit cooler weather thanks to the rain!! Later that day Ross and I rented Unknown on DVD and had a night that was simple and fun. He made pink lemonade that was amazing and I made fresh guacamole dip which I love!! Loving summer with pool days, staying out latw until the sun goes down, running when the sun comes up, great times with family and friends, and truly enjoying life!

(plus these two things help me out as a runner right?!! haha! let's hope so!)

Happy Father's Day!
For my Dad who taught me how to have fun, be silly in serious times, and enjoy the slower pace lifestyle! I love you Dad and am so grateful for you being my friend and my dad in the happiest of times as well as the toughest of days. I hope that someday you will take Ross and maybe in the future grand kids fishing and hunting so that you can show them the great things in life that you truly enjoy! I love you and can't wait for more fishing adventures together!!

Happy Friday! This morning I got in 9 miles with a friend and it was a great run! I could breathe and ran about an 8:20 pace which is very nice! :) Took Parker to the dog park where he didn't play with any other dogs and then some how he ended up with a treat at petsco!? how did that happen? I give in to easily!! haha!! Had a great lunch date with Alina and now trying to make Ross some cookies!! Happy Friday everyone!! Enjoy!
