Noah's Blessing

Noah Shane McFarland was blessed on July 24, 2011.

His arms are in there somewhere. His outfit is a double extra small, but I barely got it to button around his neck. I guess he has a big neck. Most of the time I had it unbuttoned because I was afraid he'd stop breathing! He's such a quiet sleeper (during the day!).


Harley loves being a big sister!

I wanted to get some cute pictures while he was still in his blessing outfit, but he wasn't cooperating very well. He was hungry and let's face it, his outfit doesn't look that comfortable.

I did get a pretty good "serious" pose.

We had a little Barbeque at my parents house after.

This is our friend Raechel. She happened to be visiting from California that day, so she stopped by.

Here is Morgie, she's been so much help. I'm gonna miss her when she moves away to college!

If you couldn't tell, this is Shane's dad. We'll see if Noah carries as much resemblance! Harley sure does.

Lagoon Trip

We took Harley to Lagoon in July while my sister was in town. She didn't know what to think at first, but it didn't take long before she was having a blast.

The park wasn't busy at all, it was great. The first ride we went on we were the only ones on it, it was the kiddie version of the tidal wave. It was funny because it broke at the end of our ride, so we had to wait a little while before we could get off. A little while later, Harley and I got on this little ride while Shane went to get our cooler for lunch. We waited in line for a little while then when we finally got on the ride it broke too. We sat there forever it seemed like before they finally let us off. I guess we're bad luck!

It was great to go with my sister because her kids could ride the kiddie rides with Harley. They had so much fun together!


This is my sister's new baby, Taylie. She is adorable. Apparently she loves apples, but doesn't have any teeth yet. So it was just really slobbery!

Here she is in the boats with her cousin Moroni. They loved ringing that bell!

Watch out! They are both crazy drivers!

This is her cousin Miriah

After our lagoon trip, we decided it was time for Harley to lose the mullet look, so she had her first official haircut!

Now she's got a cute little bob!

Still Framing...

The house is all dried in and we are framing inside now! It hasn't rained since!

We finally have stairs so I don't have to climb the ladder to get in!

This is a view of the front door and the bedrooms, the hole is where the stairs to the basement will be.



This is the entry from the garage. I have a pantry, a laundry room, and a little bathroom!



Here is how far we've come...
