Four minutes

Within four minutes, all of this happened on a random Saturday afternoon ...

Diaper change ...

"Airplane"

Just plain silliness!

Just a girl ...

... with her dog, on a potty, fully clothed in her swimsuit. Also known as Wednesday morning in the Kelly household.

Celebrating six

We celebrated six years together with a few days out of town, good food, and good times. A big thank you to Gigi for watching the girls, it's always easier to go away when you know everyone is in good hands.

We started the celebration at deSha's in Cincinnati on the anniversary of our rehearsal dinner at the Lexington location (RIP)

Dinner at Dudley's to celebrate six years! 

Mike's first trip to Natural Bridge / Red River Gorge ... this picture appropriately taken at Lover's leap : )

If you know me, you know I'm not very adventurous, but the girls have stolen my ability to sleep in and made me restless when, so we went hiking and had a great time!  

 

The gorgeous view on before heading home to the crazy, but wonderful, life we've created!

Seis

Six years ago we said "I do" and what a whirlwind life has been since then, in the best ways imaginable. In 2,190 days we've moved houses, added one (bad) cat and two beautiful girls, lived, laughed, and loved. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat! Here's to at least 60 more years of the same.

Playing hookie at the Zoo

We all took a day off of work and school the Friday of Memorial Day weekend and had a family day of fun that started at the Zoo and ended with running through the sprinkler ... what a great way to mark the official start of summer!

Bucket heads

The girls love the oversized buckets from Paw Paw and Maw Maw!
