Can't believe that August is almost over and we will be starting school and all kinds of activities soon! The summer just flew by, but we are so thankful to finally be in our house in Gig Harbor, Washington! We celebrated Elizabeth's 4th birthday on August 17th, and will be having her birthday party this coming weekend...more pictures to come :) Aunt Cara was here for a week during Elizabeth's birthday which was so nice because Nathan had to leave for a trip! It was great to spend a lot of girl time together! The girls have been loving their new house and town, and we have even been enjoying the gym!!! We go to the YMCA here in Gig Harbor, and Elizabeth has been taking swim lessons! Carley is growing like a weed and will be 1 next month...WOW!!! I feel like I am randomly writing about everything, but we have been so busy with getting settled in and exploring that there is just so much to update!! I will post some more pictures soon of the party, the girls, and the house!! For now, here are some pictures of Elizabeth's birthday and some stuff we have been doing here in WA!

At the zoo on Elizabeth's Birthday!
We see deer just about every day here in the neighborhood, sometimes in the back yard and sometimes in the front yard. They really like the neighbors beautiful yard and bushes across the street :)
When Daddy got home from his trip we gave Elizabeth her big present, her very own BIKE! She was SO excited to see her bike and loves to wear her princess helmet and ring the bell!!!
Yep, there are the deer again!!!
Showing us that she can ride all by herself!!!
This is Carley with her crazy hair and happy face when she wakes up from her naps!!!
My good friend Katie Ellis invited the girls over to swim and play in the ocean at her parents house in Port Orchard, WA. To say it was a beautiful place is an understatement!!!! This place was amazing and so peaceful on the water!! The girls had an amazing time playing in the water, especially with their friends!!! Here are some pictures from the play date!!
Elizabeth loved playing in the COLD Pacific water!!!
