We heart summer!!

"Mommy, can we go outside?!"

This is Sawyer's favorite place to sit. She absolutely LOVES to be outside! So, when we're inside... this is the closest she can get I guess.

Sprinkler time...

"WooHoo!! We're OUTSIDE!!!"

Even tho' she doesn't appear to be happy in any of these pictures - believe me, she was! She really likes the water! She was just in a somber mood this day. ?

She eventually grew tired of the sprinkler & found something else to do... like eat grass! Such a crazy kid!!

Fun at the pool!!

This past Sunday (Father's Day), the entire Vrbas family hung out at the park all day. A bunch of us took the kiddo's over to the pool for a swim. We needed to cool down for a while 'cause it was H-O-T!

Playin' with Picnik!

Found a fun little editing program on Facebook called Picnik. I could spend countless hours just messin' around with photos in this program. Thought I'd share some of them with you...

Just a quick update on the Vrbas'...

~(since there's really nothing too interesting going on in our lives right now)~

Joe is keeping busy, as always! Between RJ Const., the Fire Dept, and his 'hubby/daddy' duties - he lacks very little time for anything else! (But don't worry - he wouldn't have it any other way!)

Peytie is enjoying her summer off from school. She's excited for it to start staying warm & keeps asking me when we can take the boat out to the pits & do some swimming! It's always either that or asking when we're going to the zoo.

(We're planning a little mini-vacation to Omaha sometime this summer. She. Is. Stoked.)

Sawyer is growing up SO fast... she's been pulling herself up on things & doing a little furniture crusin' now for a couple weeks. And she's ONLY 8 MONTHS OLD!!! Aagghh!! Daddy & sister are elated, but Mommy would like her to slow down! (Except for the 'cutting of the teeth'. Man, I wish those would come in already!! ;o)

As for me... just pluggin' along - staying VERY busy!!! I've been at my job now for 8 years and I truly love it! Even tho' the thought of a summer vacation sounds just DREAMY...

(I knew I shoulda' become a teacher!) =)

Well, we hope everyone's having a SUPER summer!!

I will try to update with new pics very soon.

Love you all!

Our girls...

We love books!

Our little Miss Sawyer "might not ever sleep thru the nite...EVER" Jane Vrbas. Yeah, we've added a new middle name. We know it's a bit long, but it's pretty fitting... =)

Cheesetastic!

Miss Curly Sawyer

I do believe we have some BEAUTIFUL girls!

Sawyer photo shoot!

Our little babe is 7 months old already! She's really starting to get quite a personality. An ornery one! (The apple didn't fall far from the tree there... the 'tree' being her dad of course!) She scoots around everywhere now. She's close to figuring out how to actually crawl on her hands & knees instead of on her tummy. We had to go get a baby gate today! She's growing up way too fast!!

Gotta' love conversations with a 4 yr old...

The following is a conversation between Peytie & her daddy:

While playing their nightly game of Old Maid, Peytie looks down & notices bruises on her daddy's legs. She says,"Daddy, what happened to your legs?"

Daddy: "I was working cows today and I got kicked about 85 times!" (He embellishes a little I think!)

Peytie: "Why?"

Daddy: "Well, you have to push a whole bunch of baby cow's through the chute & they don't want to go through the chute because they know what's at the other end."

Peytie: "Yeah... LAUNDRY."


;o)
Well, not the right 'chute' but close...

Haircuts & Field Day...

Peytie & I got "much needed" haircuts last Tuesday before heading to Field Day in Wauneta. Thanks Ashli! We love 'em!!

Peytie had a blast at her 1st field day! The preschoolers did a few events. (Foot race, sack race & an obstacle course.)

Peyton & Halle Bardsley were attached at the hip all morning. It was pretty cute!

Getting ready for the sack race...

Run, RUN!!!!

Cuddling with Nana

The whole group, listening to Mr. Wilson explain how to do the obstacle course.
