Hannah Jo's First Birthday!

Our sweet, sweet baby Hannah is now one! Over this past year she has won all our hearts. Hannah is a good baby girl. She loves to play with her brother and sister and follows them all over the house. She also loves to explore independently. Some of her favorite things: water play, music/dancing, bananas, pacifiers, and books.

Summer Fun

We love to play in the water! Especially in Summer!Here are some pictures of recent adventures in the water :).

We got some frozen custard from Bolivar's famous 3 Gennerations Angies Frozen Custard.

We love to play outside on the cooler days...

...and on warmer days we get creative inside :). Here is a fort the kids made together. These three sure love each other.

The kids are growing too fast! We sure love them. They are each unique and hold a special place in our hearts.

4th of July

We went up to Kansas City and spent the Fourth of July with David's Brother and his family. We had loads of fun. Peter asked to live in Kansas City so he could play with his cousins all the time. He loves his KC cousins! Evelyn and Hannah had a blast too. It is always fun to visit the KC Reynders :).

Swimming!

Sparklers!

Bubbles!

Play Time!

Little people!

Evelyn feel asleep on Peter while watching a show. So sweet :)

Six Memories

Our little Reynders family just had an anniversary. Six years ago we founded our own branch on the Reynders Family tree. On June 28, 2008, David and I were sealed in the Fresno, CA, LDS Temple. We have grown closer together with each passing day. We are grateful for the past six years which have helped forge us together and have made us stronger as individuals, as a couple, and as a family.

Flash back! Pictures from before we were married:

When we decided we were actually dating :)

Here are six memories, one from each year of our marriage:

1. Planting flower bulbs and growing giant, alien-looking, flowers.

2. OK, I have 2... Being a ma and pa for the youth Pioneer Trek and expecting and welcoming Peter into our family.

3. Finishing our undergraduate courses. 

4. Expecting and welcoming baby Evelyn into our family.

5. Moving half way across the country to a small town (pop: 10,000), Bolivar, MO.

6. Welcoming Hannah Jo into our little family.

The last six years have been wonderful and we look forward to the many years, the eternity, ahead.
