This morning...

I love getting up early...
especially for this :)
 
for those who missed it...





Have a fabulous day!! xo


Celebrating 3!!

Ranen turned 3 on Saturday!!
She was probably the most excited that she has ever been...
So fun to watch and enjoy!
She actually understood it all this year...
 
3 years ago we were blessed
with our precious daughter
7:02 pm on a Tuesday night, July 27...
Oh I remember the joy to hearing her first cries...
Love - it is a beautiful thing!


 
First birthday:

 
Second birthday:
 
 
Now she has grown so much...
friendly,
a little shy,
loves to bike,
swimming - her favourite,
talks a lot (maybe like her mom!)
says Cayden is her favourite
(but that I am still her favourite mommy (lol))
enjoys being mommy for her dolls
loves to sing,
still attached to her teddy/soother for bed
strong willed
loves to help...
 

Saturday morning Auntie Erica and Auntie Reina
came over for a bike ride and coffee... 


 
Ranen had to wait until Daddy came in from the barn
to open up our present...



 So our girl...

Then we had the Lindhout's over at night for a bbq/swim:
















 Oh, I love you so much...
 


 
What a great evening!
Ranen was spoiled... it was fun!
 
Now today, we have some friends coming this morning
and the Korporaal's come tonight for a swim...
Better go get some stuff done :)
 
Corina - her and Cooper just got hitched!!
Love it - what a great buy!! 

Love you sis!
 
Tomorrow - off camping to Cultus for 2 nights :)
Hoping for a fabulous week!
 
(hopefully more posts coming soon...  1 for family pics,
1 for our fence project, 1 for Ben's father's day surprise that arrived in the mail...)
but it will for sure be after camping!!
