Girls day blessings......

Today we had girls day! Momma, Ava, Kerrigan and Megan! For a Momma that went through years of thinking infertility would never give me the opportunity to be a Momma...I'm still in awe of the blessings I have and enjoy every second we get to spend together!!!

We started with Ava getting a hair cut at Aunt Camy's (Amy's). When Ava was little she called her Aunt Camy....she doesn't anymore but I like it;) Ava left looking like a princess....of course!!!


We took about 3" off and added bangs again!!  LOOKS GREAT!!


She was enjoying this so much...she almost went to sleep :)
Kerrigan "helping" at the beauty shop

Then we ventured to Princeton...first stop Rural King to look at the baby chicks. Then off to find some flowers to plant! We got our flowers and a slushy from Sonic! Then headed home to plant them!

So much fun gettin dirty and planting flowers! WE love Spring!

Our little helper escaping with the flowers!

Wonderfully Blessed day!!!

14 blessings.......



It all started back on April 14, 1968.....My parents got married this day....AND my husband was born on April 14, 1968 !!!   So before I was even dreamed about yet.....the stars had started aligning to bring us together!

Many good things happen on April 14....Mom, Dad and Jen were baptized on April 14 a few years back
Dayne took his first communion on April 14.......AND today Ben took his first communion on April 14.

April 14 is very popular.....but 14 comes up A LOT in our family!
Tim's birthday April 14
Dayne's birthday November 14
Ava's birthday January 14
Ava's Gotcha day October 14
Kerrigan became a US citizen Sept 14

Its just kinda cool how 14 pops up everywhere!  If I played the Lottery I would play number 14.


So today our blessed April 14....we went to church and watched Ben do his first communion.  He looked so
handsome!    





Then we went home and had cake and ice cream for Tim's birthday bash!!



















Then to Mom and Dad's for Ben's party!  The girls had a great time.  Ava played with her cousins and dug for mussels in the lake!  I always said if I had a girl she would dress like a princess while playing in the mud.....WELL that's what I got...Ava was dressed in her skirt and out digging through the mud in the lake for MUSSELS!!!  LOL!!  Wonderfully blessed day!

Grandma and Grandpa Bogard came too:)  FUN!
