Memorial Day Weekend!

Memorial Day weekend is the official summer kick-off and we made sure to have a little fun.  Friday, Sara and I went to the zoo.  I think I'm going to have to go back a few more times so Sara can actually see the animals...she only wanted to play on the jungle gym this time!  Sunday, Owen and I celebrated 6 wonderful years of marriage.  Sara even cooperated for our 'Big Date Night'!  Today we spent the day in the Jemez Mountains and had a ball in the hot springs and going through the tunnels.  Our adventures have been added to the May album for you to enjoy!

Sara's 3rd Birthday/Mother's Day

I am one lucky mom today, remembering how I became fortunate enough to celebrate this day in the first place...today is Sara's 3rd birthday! We are celebrating with a day of family fun. We went to the park to play with her new tricycle, blew bubbles in the backyard, and created some great family memories throughout the day.

We would also like to share with everyone that the Yaklin family will be adding a new addition at the end of September..we are expecting a baby boy! So blessed to have this new addition join us this fall!

Sara's 'STAR' Birthday

Even though there were plenty of 'stars' at the party today, they did not quite aline for Sara's backyard BBQ birthday party. Mother Nature had other plans and gave us a late-afternoon burst of rain. Good thing we could see it coming and decided to setup for an indoor party. Even though most of the festivities were inside, we still had a really great time. Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy. Thanks to everyone who could join us in making it Sara's "best birthday ever!" Happy 3rd Birthday Sara!

Warrior Dash!

Owen has been training for the past 6 weeks for the warrior dash and yesterday was the big day! It was a 5k obstacle course where he climbed over walls, crawled through mud, and jumped over fire...it was quite the race. He had a goal to finish in 40 minutes, but all that training had done him good and he finished in just 32 minutes and placed 503 out of 8400 people! I only got a few pictures from the day, but I'm sure you will see what a warrior he can be!!
