Tiptoe through the Tulips

We (minus Stu) are leaving for Kansas tomorrow for our summer vacation so I thought I better catch up on blogging.

Shelby had her dance recital mid-June. Her class did a ballet to the song Tiptoe through the Tulips.  She did such a great job.  It has really been a blast watching her grow as a dancer and get more confident on stage.  And of course, she loves it.  Especially when she gets to hang out with her best bud, Chloe.

Wedding in Mazama

Last weekend we headed to Mazama, Washington for TJ (Quinn's cousin) and Jen's wedding.  Mazama is located in north central Washington and is a good 4.5 hour drive from where we lived.

Grandma Mary and her two sisters, Anne and Janet came out for the wedding.  They got in Thursday night and then them and the kids headed to the wedding Friday morning.  Stu and I worked a full day and then made the drive.

It was a great weekend of being with family and an absolute gorgeous wedding.  We all had a fabulous time.

Bradan loved the mariachi band. He would dance to every song and clap for them at the end of every song.

  The beautiful bride, Jen. 

 The Koehler Clan that was there.  Eight out of the 13 isn't bad.

 This guy turns 60 on the 21st.  Nope, nobody gave him a hard time about that one.  Happy Birthday Uncle Jerry!  - We love you.

 There was plenty of grass and dirt to farm.

 The cousins.  It was good to see everyone.

 What a pose.  Shelby had a fun time playing with cousins and hanging out in the play room at the wedding.

 I love the look on their faces as they are dancing together.

 Yum... Cupcake.

 This little guy was a hit on the dance floor.  People were circling around him and taking pictures of him while he was showing his moves. 

 Dancing wore him out.  He fell asleep on Mommy shortly after this picture.

 It didn't take her long to crash either.

The creek near our rental.  Saturday morning the creek was dry and by that afternoon the first melted snow of the year was running through it.  Shelb had to go in it a couple of times even though it was freezing.
