Daddy's little helper

Abi loves to do anything that John is doing.

What's Happening???

Abi turned 1 on June 4th and we had a great weekend celebrating her birthday. She loved crawling through tunnels at Auntie Chrystal's house and stuffing her face with birthday cake at the Kangas' house. I can't believe over a year has gone by. Abi has a bright, fun personality and she is always full of life. She is always ready to give a kiss and a hug and a bright smile just when you need it. She loves digging in dirt and working with daddy out in the yard or in the house. As you can see from the pictures she keeps me busy, but every minute is worth it. I know she won't be this little for long so I try and treasure every moment we have together.

John started his Excavating business last Nov. and has been keeping busy ever since. He loves what he does, what man wouldn't love driving heavy machinery and digging in the dirt. He has also been busy with the new Church plant here in Scappoose, preaching every once in a while and coordinating events as well as setting up and tearing down since our church "Branches" is meeting in the park during the summer months.

Erin (I) spend most of my time in the Kitchen. I know that sounds bad but honestly when Abi eats 3 meals a day with snacks in between a lot of my time is spent there. Thankfully we have a lovely new kitchen with lots of space. Actually I have loved living in Scappoose because there are always wonderful women to go walking with or shopping with. I spend many hours hanging out with friends and I love it.
