4th of July!

We had so much fun on the 4th of July! We started the day with a parade in Marlton. Mackenzie loved it! Both the girls were decked out in outfits I had bought for them at the end of the summer last year... I didn't even know I was going to have another girl, but I was hoping!

Gotta love the bow!

After the parade we went home and took naps then we went over to the Lockharts' house for a surprise party for our friend Justin. He was totally surprised... and so was his little girl, Elise, who cried and cried after we all shouted surprise! Poor thing, we really shocked her!

Shana is my friend that reminds me of myself because she totally adores her husband, Justin, as much as I adore Jake! She is a constant example to me of speaking highly of your husband to others and appreciating him for all of the hard work he does. She has a baby that is barely a month old, but she's been planning this surprise party for him for months now since she knew she wouldn't be able to do much after the baby was born. She set up a whole special email account and delegated everything so she could bless her husband with a wonderful surprise party even though they just had a new baby! Way to go, Shana!!

Babies, Babies, Babies... here is Aubrey with her friends Avery and Sophia (they are cousins!)



Here's Madison and Aubrey together with the two "look alike" dads!

Here are our girls together again! We are so excited to raise our kids with the Palmers... we love them so much!

Here are SOME of the babies that God has blessed our church with in the past 4 months!

They were all so cute. They're all at the stage where they can't control their arms yet and they kept hitting one another in the face!

Who are all these babies you may wonder? Starting with Aubrey and going left: Aubrey Moon, Sophia Park (she is the oldest, 4 months), Eliana Mall (she is the youngest, 1 week), Eli Williams, Isaac Baloche, Alaythia Lockhart, Avery Chung, and Madison Palmer.

If you're looking for a church with lots of young kids... look no further!!! Three of these babies are first borns, two are second borns, and the three families at the end on the right just has their 5th, 4th, and 6th kid!!

That night we got the girls all bathed and dressed them in their froggy jammies... Mackenzie loves matching Aubrey whenever she can. Then Mackenzie insisted on playing with Aubrey. She takes Aubrey's hand and makes her spin the little mirror around. She is such a good big sister!
