I was going to try to update my blog on everything that has happened this summer but that seemed like too much work. So instead I decided to post a throwback photo of Adam & me. It is actually the fist photo of us taken together as a couple almost exactly 8 years ago. We were just babies back then! :)
Adam ran dam to dam! It was his first race & he did a great job. We went to cheer him on which became a story to tell! Haha. Let's just say it involved loading six kids & 2 moms in a 10 passenger van at 6:30 am, a 7 month pregnant lady running a mile while pushing 90 lbs of child/stroller (couldn't miss out on cheering my hubby on!), making it to the finish line within 2 minutes of Adam crossing, losing our husbands, realizing we locked the keys in the car, waiting for someone to bring keys downtown (only later to find out that one of the doors was left unlocked), free sandwiches running out right as we get to the front of the line (resulting in 6 starving children & 4 starving adults), the possibility of needing to take 4 more adults home to Ankeny in our already over capacity van, & a whole lot of laughs ( & maybe a few cries). It was so worth it though! Life is always an adventure with children!
Brunch & coffee date with my Havee Bells & my momma, watching many of my dear friends' children get dedicated, lunch with Adam's family, walks & sushi picnic at the park, Haven learning to ride her bike, Roman learning to drive :), & a scavenger hunt to find my new sewing machine! As Haven would say, "Best day ever!" Thank you to our moms for all of your hard work & dedication in raising us & thank you Adam, Haven, & Roman for richly blessing my life daily! So blessed & happy to be called a daughter, wife & mommy!
