Love sleeping on sheets that have been hung out on the line to dry!

Ten Years

Ten years ago I married my best friend and soul mate! It was the best decision we ever made! God sure knew what he was doing when he paired us together. We are so blessed and I love you more every day Jason Kyle! Here's to the rest of our lives together! Cheers!!! 

Before we headed out on our date!

Always laugh and have fun together!

Fathers Day

We had a great Fathers Day at the Strader house!  I got up early and cooked Jason breakfast before church (those of you who know me, know I don't do early.) HAHA!  We had a wonderful service at church and then came home and gave Daddy the day off.  He floated the river by himself and then spent some much needed time to himself in the hammock by the river!  My parents and Katie came over and ate dinner with us to celebrate the two best Dad's ever!  And you know, I didn't even get a picture with my Dad for Father's Day.  I love you Daddy, thanks for all you do!  Jason and I are so blessed to have such amazing Fathers and Grand Fathers in our lives!  We owe so much of who we are to them.  And a big special thank you to Jimmy Tone, Jason's Dad.  You have raised one amazing son, who knows how to be a wonderful husband and father because of your example!  We love you!   

Oaks with his new haircut.  He decided he wanted it all cut off and then would grow it back out in the winter.  I think he was getting a little hot this summer! 

Miss Lakelyn loves to swing!

Miss Avery loves to do stunts off the swings!

I just love this picture!!!

There was the most beautiful rainbow on Fathers Day.  Pictures just can't do it justice.

My family on Father's Day!  My how I love these people!  Thanks to an amazing father we have an amazing family!  I love you so much Jason Kyle.  You make me one happy Mommy!  Do you see Katie in the background trying to get all the kids to look and smile at the camera?!

I wanted a picture of Lakelyn's curls and I caught her picking her nose!  Oh well, kids will be kids, right?

Lakelyn wanted to give Aunt Kat one last kiss before she left.

15th Annual Birthday Bash

Wow, it's crazy to think 15 years ago I turned 18 and Jason turned 21!  We had an amazing time camping with friends this year.  We could not of asked for a better weekend or better weather!  We laid in the creek most of the time and soaked up the sun!
