More Summer Pics


Since I am not finding much time to post this summer, I figured I'd at least get on here to put some pictures up. Here's a handful of the things we've been up to :)...

Jacob's 8th birthday party :)

Several hikes on the paths through our development (we're loving our new home and new neighborhood!)




Fun family times
Bon fire for my birthday. Smores and this new neat creation below over the fire. Yum!

Beautiful flowers from my in-laws :)

A day at Cedar Point!




Our best bud - Jerry and the kids





The kids loving on each other :)



Life has been good! We are very much enjoying our summer! Abbey is 6 months post treatment and doing beautifully. I can almost say that life seems pretty much back to normal. God is so faithful and I feel so blessed to be where we are today. Thank you faithful followers for checking in on us. Blessings to you all :)!

New Do :)


Abbey has a new do! Doesn't she look adorable :)?!!!


Before

During

And After :)

The last few months that Abbey was in treatment, her hair started thinning again. Her chemo was upped and as a result her hair started coming out some again. We weren't too worried about it because we knew it was the very final stretch and in no time she would be done with it for good! When her treatment was over in January, a ton of new growth started coming in. We were amazed how much was coming in because although we noticed it was thinner, we didn't realize how much she had lost again. As time went on the new growth started sticking up all over and quite honestly it looked pretty crazy and out of control most of the time. So last week I made an appointment with my sweet friend and hairdresser Kendra for her to shape her up. The new hair is blending so much better now and a few more cuts and it should be all back to 1 length :)! She looks at least a year older to me, but other than me feeling like my baby is growing up, I just love it! And Abbey thinks it looks pretty great too :)!
