Friday Nights

Friday nights at the Collins' household are just so crazy. Ha! 

But really, we have been loving our new yard. We had our very first camp fire in our very own backyard a few weeks ago. We roasted hot dogs, same some songs and enjoyed God's creation.

And the kids had a BLAST. 

It was the first, but I'm sure it won't be the last.

This kid...

...we can't take him anywhere.

Park Day

On Wednesday mornings while Olivia is in school, Ford and I will meet some friends at the park. After therapy every Wednesday morning, we will leave and he'll start saying "park, park, park." 

Smitten...

...that's what these two are. Not quite sure how all this started and wasn't really expecting this quite so early. They love each other and are just so smitten. 

May the force be with him if it were to wok out in many, many years 

(I'm sure his mother would say the same thing.)

Jammie Day

We had a jammie day a few months back. Now I can't even remember why we were all home. I think it was a Friday and I let Olivia skip school for fun. Anyway, I took pictures all day of them and the fun we had. I know with big girl school around the corner these days are numbered. 

That makes me SO sad.

We took full advantage of our relaxing day.

Time could pause right here and I would be just fine.

Sweet boy.

Annual Beach Trip

We took our annual beach trip a little later this year. We had a rather busy summer so we waited until fall break to take this trip. This is always a CRAZY trip but it is filled with laughter, love and fun times. 

ALL four were asleep at the same time. That, folks, is pure luck.

We missed our daddy. 

Face time is good for the soul.

Last beach trip of the summer and this little fishy decided he could float in the water all by himself. 

It has been a LONG summer of momma and daddy floating with him....we were all so proud!

These four....

they give us a run for our money.

The Fair (enough said)

Date Night

This sweet girl loves a night to have her daddy all to herself. She gets all dressed up for him, picking her outfit out all by herself even down to the accessories such as her Hello Kitty necklace. They have such a good time together. 

So...when they get a night out, I get a night in with this crazy fella. 

We have a pretty good time ourselves.
