Our two Buckeye "nuts"!

My friend, Morgan Zoeller, from Twysted Yarn made these hats for the kids. She does amazing work! Go Buckeyes!

Coshocton County Fair!

The five cousins - Ethan, Amaya, Colvin, Caleb, and Kale!

Ethan won "Husky" from throwing 15 consecutive darts, hitting the target each time. Husky goes with us everywhere now!

The boys riding the ferris wheel...all bundled up!

Showing off the biggest pumpkin, just his size!

Josh carried around his little "papoose". It was really chilly!!

The three boys at the bottom of the slide! They had a blast riding together!

The three musketeers...watch out! Amaya and Caleb will be joining you very soon :)

While Kale and Ethan were enjoying rides together, Josh and Stacy rode with Colvin on the big rides this year!

The last two days of the fair really warmed up! Ethan got to ride with his buddy Caleb.

Miss Amaya watching everything around her....she sure takes it all in!

Watching with Papa...

We had another wonderful year at the fair!!

Holden Beach

We had a wonderful vacation at Holden Beach, NC! The weather was perfect! It's so nice to step away from the busyness of life sometimes and cherish each and every "small" moment. The kids thoroughly enjoyed spending so many days with daddy (and I did too)!

Our sweet little girl!

Ethan LOVED the ocean, the crashing waves, the sand...you name it! Amaya, however, was a little apprehensive. She would rather sit and watch! She didn't like getting her feet "dirty"!

One of the many gorgeous sunsets we saw...isn't God amazing?!

The name of the house we stayed in was called "Sandy Feet", so I felt it appropriate to take these pics :) Amaya did not like having her feet in the sand...can you tell she is pulling her feet away?!

Ethan stepping in his daddy's footsteps....priceless. He really DOES want to be like his daddy, in every single way it seems. Love it.

Our two muchkins...loving the outdoors!!

The love of siblings :)

Loving the breeze!

More sandy feet...

Ethan loved that he got to sleep on the top bunk...so every night, daddy had their Bible study on the top bunk. Love making memories!

Taking a break to watch daddy surf the waves...

I can't begin to express how much this little boy LOVED the ocean! The bigger the waves, the better! He was jumping, boogie boarding, and swimming under the waves. Ethan did learn to swim on vacation! He is holding his breath great! I hope these videos turned out....enjoy!
