C1's first trip to the dentist

Is that fun or what? Caeden laid in the chair and got to watch a movie the whole time. He LOVED it!
Here is our cutie patootie getting his x-rays. Smiling before the pictures, not so much after. At our house we brush our teeth multiple times a day, eat pretty healthy and don't drink a whole lot other than water and rice milk, so I haven't taken him to the dentist before. He started to complain that a tooth was hurting so I got him in. Bad news... this poor kiddo needs 4 filings, a baby root canal and a crown!!! Oh my goodness, I couldn't believe it. We will be going for one appointment (they think they will tackle this in 2 separate appointments) on the morning of August 3rd. Mommy and bud are both a little worked up, please pray for us. :)

Things that have made Caeden smile lately

Our friends the Tuckers have a movie theater you can rent out at their complex and we brought Kung Fu Panda and had a great time!
The splash pad by our house is always a hit to stay cool and have fun in the summer!
C loves to tattoo himself. I think a big reason is because Uncle Dutch has so many tattoos. Dutch is still in South Korea and I think it makes Caeden feel connected to him.
Aunt Cora and Uncle Nick have a new puppy Boss that came for a visit and C fell in love with him.

Wonderful weekend!!

Jay and I stayed at this adorable bed and breakfast in Prescott this weekend to celebrate 6 years since our first date.
We played cards and scrabble,
took long walks into downtown Prescott, around historic neighborhoods,
and saw many adorable houses. It was a fantastic time! It was quiet and cool, with food prepared for us, leisurely strolls, reading, sleeping, talking. We feel so refreshed and the boys did great with Grandma and Grandpa so it was a win win for all. Thank you Lord for putting the many pieces together... we are so grateful and will remember it forever.

Worship at VBS

Last year Caeden just stared at Pastor David during worship and this year, he had the best time jumping up and down and singing all the words. It was really fun to watch. In the first video he is sort of in the middle in a white shirt and the one below he is right next to my dad which is easier to see.
