Father's Day

On Sunday we celebrated Father's Day by taking a mini roadtrip to Stillwater. We watched a bike race, ate ice cream, grabbed some treats at Trembley's Old Fashioned Sweet Shop and Jack even took a swim in his clothes in the St. Croix!
I missed my Dad on Father's Day and wished I could've spent the day with him! 8 more days till my Dad, Barb, Mikayla and Blake come for the Summer! So excited to see them!

4 Year Anniversary!

I can't believe that I have been married for 4 years already. Ben and I have been together for 7 years now!! Crazy!! And to think that we have two children already is nuts..

On our anniversary my Mom took the kids so we could have a night out. We went to Uptown to the "Cafeteria" restaurant. They have an awesome outdoor patio on the rooftop and it was a beautiful summer night to have dinner.

Ben-You are such a devoted husband, loving Dad and you amaze me everyday. I am such a lucky lady! Love you!

House Remodel!

BEFORE

AFTER

Over the last couple months we have been doing lots to the exterior of our home. I have "before" and "after" pics of the work we have done. In late April new windows were put in throughout the entire house, Ben (and Mike) finished the backyard fence, new siding and shakes were done on the front, the entire house was painted and veneer stone was added onto the front.
We are so happy with the way everything turned out! It's so nice to drive up cause it looks like an entirely different house! Houses are so much work but it feels great now that its over...for now :)

Henry Walking!

Henry took his first steps on Wednesday, June 1st. One week before his 1st birthday! :) I am so proud of my babe!

Henry 1st Birthday!

Henry Michael Christensen is 1 year old today. This past year has gone so fast and I literally blinked and a year has gone by. Henry is really starting to take off walking. Still a little wabbly but getting around great. His first word was, "Hi". He will just about eat anything I give him! He absolutely adores Jack and thinks he is the funniest thing alive. He follows him around all day long.
I am so thankful that I get to be at home with him (and Jack) to see these awesome milestones unfold. :) From the time he arrived everyone has said, "He looks identical to you Amanda!" Ha I just love hearing that cause Jack was a little Ben! He's my little pumpkin and we are so lucky to have him in our lives.
