Goldfish Anyone?

I opened the car door to find this . . . (don't let that innocent face fool you) . . .

Audra apparently was hungry. And quite proud of herself.

My favorite part is that she kept lifting her legs up, as not to squish all the gold fish.

Birthday Wishes!

"Cheese"

We just wanted to wish Poppy a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! We wish we could be there to celebrate with you. Just know that we LOVE you very much!

These pictures were cracking me up so i had to get them up. Today we were working in the garage and the kiddos were enjoying themselves as well. Audra was quite enjoying some time on the quad. She was rocking back and forth trying to make it go. And can I just say she makes the most hillarious faces. All business.

Gavin had had enough of the car and hopped on the quad in front of Audra and she was quite enjoying it. Funny kids. This is one of my favorite faces that Audra makes. Too funny.

The Park

The rest of trip in Southern California was mostly spent being sick. Gavin & I both took our turn with the flu bug that Audra had on the way out. We did however have a wonderful lunch with Auntie Hannah & Uncle Jake & Uncle Cam & Grammy at Panera Bread of course, one of my favorites, and then we enjoyed an afternoon at the park. Gavin is always up for the park, some baseball and a few slides.

The Engagement

Since I have having computer troubles today, this post will just be of the engagement night. On Wednesday morning the kiddos and I drove to Southern California. With only a few minor setbacks (a few stops to clean up Audra's mess from throwing up all over herself) we arrived in time to have a late lunch with Uncle Jake & Uncle Cam. Which also meant I had time to wash miss Audra's carseat at Jake's house. We then headed to Laguna Beach where the engagement would take place. As we got in the car to head out the rain starting coming and coming and pooring and pooring. We arrived at the beach where the boys got themselves all set up. The kiddos and I awaited Auntie Mandy's arrival to help walk down the many stairs to the beach front. Hannah was at youth group the entire time where her small group was participating in a scavenger hunt that would lead her to the beach. She was of course blindfolded and arrived on the beach and took off the blind fold to see Jake down on one knee. She was so shocked she just kept screaming and jumping, I think she was quite suprised. It was all a very fun moment and so special that we all got to be there to witness the entire thing. After all the excitement we headed back to the church where it was time to CELEBRATE! Can you tell they were excited?! Gavin loved all the balloons and streamers.

And was loving being the life of the party.

Audra was also enjoying all the attention.

The Floch/Holt Fam (minus Kevin, he had to work)

They had good practice at cutting the cake.

And don't you just love that pink "Bride" sash, the lovely Mandy found that. What an awesome girl you are Mandy.

Showing off the beautiful ring.

Thank you Jake for letting us be a part of this moment, it was very fun, very wet, but very fun. And we look forward to the big day!

Congratulations!!!

The beautiful ring (I actually forgot to take a picture of the ring, so I stole this from facebook, but didn't Jake do an awesome job picking that out).
