June Madness..

June came and went and i hardly felt its presence. ever have that feeling? Its like time is flying so fast with so much going on that i didnt even take time to savor it.  Not that there is much to savor about 100 degrees with 65+ humidity:). its been so long ill just start at the top...and prepare yourself....there are more than a ton of pics below!  this month started off with a crazy keiser family reunion in Navuoo Illinois. we spent just a couple days there seeing the sights. Family drove through on there way to my bro in laws dental school graduation so we got to see them for  split second which was nice.  Gray mastered crawling in the right direction (forward) and is already walking along furniture and standing on his own. so proud of that sweet baby! Brig is still saying the funniest things ever and amazing me with how smart he is. he now knows articles of faith 1-5 &8! Me and the boys spent a weekend in Iowa city with Brooke and Flynner then they came here for the remainder of the week to play while her hubby was gone fishing.  Our crib got recalled so we have been in  a mad scramble trying to find one we liked for a price we can afford before we have to turn ours back in..call me sentimental but it makes me so sad to give up my boys crib..there are lots of memories centered around that little hunk of defective wood! we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary as well. I love looking back through life's journey. Seeing all the joys, heartache, excitement, trials and how much we have grown. I feel as though from the outside people might thing i haven't accomplished much but in reality i have what most spend there whole lives dreaming and wishing for. A family with more love in it than i ever could of imagined. My hubby is my very best friend, not in the mushy sense but in fact. there is no one i confide in, rely on, laugh more with, or love more than him. He supports and encourages my dreams..even better he works to make them a reality. The last five years have brought so many changes both in us and in the world we knew, i cant wait to see what comes in the next five..ten..twenty..! Seth got a week study break for boards! it was heavenly because he is not taking his boards this summer and has opted to take them over a holiday break this winter..sssooo...we had lots of much needed daddy play time. OUR BOYS WERE ON CLOUD NINE! its so fun to watch their faces when they wake up on mornings when seth is home, its shock-excitement-confusion-and sleepy eyes all meshed into two chubby little faces..its priceless:)

i am the worst at picking a few pictures to post.the more the merrier i say! plus pictures say so much more than words..

baby loves are the best, and Brig gets a hundred times more than anyone! lucky boy!
 
Brig does this all day long at the pool. he is always cold in the water so this is how he warms up. its in and out in and out playing then looking for dry warm spots. im just glad he hasnt heard the joke about peeing to make warm water!
 
this is what i get when i say brig smile...goof ball..
