can't resist the stache..

Mark Richard Neilson. 
there's no one like him. 
solid solid solid unshakable rock of a man. 
Yesterday he turned 55.
wahoo! 
so the dudes shaved for comedy and celebration...
just a reminder: dad's had a mustache since he was like a toddler. 
so. there's that. 

it was such a fun day. 
we ate dinner on the table he made 
with his bare hands from a tree that fell down.

something true


Psalm 16:11

The Message (MSG)


 11 Now you've got my feet on the life path,
      all radiant from the shining of your face.
   Ever since you took my hand,
      I'm on the right way.

moms birthday - iron goat trail + campfire shenanigans

we went on a solid hike yesterday for mom's birthday. 
LOVED it. such a pretty trail. 
Im so glad we could celebrate mom, 
because it was a really memorable one this year.
plus there was a picnic lunch, 
and possibly the best kabob i've ever had. 
no summer is complete without kabobs. 

at one point when we were passing by some people on the trail, 
joshua turns around to us, and says:
'you guys remember the routine, in case they wanna have a dance off, right?' 

seriously though- what if a bunch of girl scouts were like 'break it down. let's do this.' 
& then like..joshua does the worm or something. 
while sarah and I shout the new coldplay song.
I dunno..just scene we thought of.
outrageous scenerio humor.
I guess you had to be there..
almost fell down laughing. a classic happy kayla move. 

I love you, nina ten. You're the most graceful loving mother.

sarah's pajama themed birthday

on july 14th 1986 sarah nicole was born. We loooove her. 
She makes us happy. 
also, fact about sarah: she loves breakfast foods. 
So, naturally... we had a pajama party. 
and we ate eggs and bacon and pancakes for dinner. 
It was fan.tastic.
