8 Months

Lane is 3!

Lane turned 3 at the end of July and because family is so spread about and schedules are busy she ended up having four separate events focused on her little self! As you can probably gather from the pictures, Dora is a big hit around this house.

This is the cottage celebration when both sets of grandparents were there. This was a very fun weekend and as you can see, Lane did not lack in the gift department.

Phelps side get together. Paige, Brooklyn and Madison also celebrated birthdays in July!

Borchert party at our house. Dora themed everything.

Greta Elyse

At the begging of July, Chris and I became an uncle and aunt for the 8th time. Greta is baby #4 for Katie and Justin. Welcome sweet girl!

Karissa and David's Wedding

July 16, 2010 was a gorgeous day. We all had a fabulous time and everything turned out great. My little sister is a married woman!

Bachelorette Party

This past weekend we celebrated my sister, Karissa's, bachelorette party. The picture directly above is a game we made her play where all the guests had to bring a pair of underwear that best represented themselves and she had to guess who brought which pair. Sadly, I represented myself by a toddlers, princess themed, pull-up diaper.

The party was a lot of fun but I still have a hard time believing my little sister is getting married! I really felt my age the next day when I basically had to take several naps to make up for rolling in around 2am. How embarrassing. Oh well, onto the main event....only a few more weeks till the wedding!!!
