So, today is actually the day! It's our anniversary!

Happy two years babe!! I love you so much and the last two years have been the best years of my life! You are my best friend and I am so happy to be your wife!

Happy 2 year anniversary!!

Wow!! The two year mark! We took a vacation and had a blast!

Well, we had to take a picture with Eowyn before leaving the little sweetheart. It was crazy to know that we were leaving for a whole week!

She gave us a wonderful pose before we left and we showed this pic off to a lot of people when we talked about missing our baby

We are on the plane. We were sad to leave Eowyn but not that sad : )

We had arrived! We decided to fly in and out of long beach and just rent a car so we could drive to Palm Springs and then end our trip at Disneyland.

While in Palm Springs we took this tram up to like 8,000 ft. It was awesome and about 20 degrees cooler which means it was about 80 degrees, it was crazy hot down below.

We took about a 4 hour hike and made it to 9,100 ft.

It was weird that it was still warm at that altitude.

The scenery was amazing from the top!

After 3 days at Palm Springs, playing tennis, relaxin at the pool and just hanging out we were on our way to Disneyland!!


We made it! All the way to the happiest place on earth where all your dreams come true : )


I thought these were cute. There were some newlyweds walking around with them on but we only wore them for a picture : )


Gotta love the 3D glasses for Its a Bugs life!


One of my dreams finally came true! We had dinner at the resteraunt that you see when you are on the Pirates of the Carribean ride. I had been to Disneyland 3 times and just always thought it would be cool to eat there so we did and it was awesome!


Riding on the Matterhorn


And thats the story!

Happy Father's Day to the Man I Love!

To the greatest father in the whole wide world! I love you sweetheart and am so blessed to have you not only as my husband but as a father to our beautiful daughter Eowyn.

Already lovin the fish! She would put it in her mouth if we would let her ( seriously, what is it with kids?! : )


This is one of my favorite pics! She is 3 days old and it is just precious!


Out searching for Christmas trees last year

On the top of the world with her daddy!

Ben also started a new job today at Mortgage Masters. He has been working at Kiel mortgage for the past 2 years and felt it was time for a move. He is such a hard-working, honest man that is full of integrity and I know he will do awesome. I love you sweetheart! Have a great first day!

Some fun in the sun!

It was so awesome to take Eowyn to the Tennis court and let her just roll around while we played some tennis. She has jellies on! So cute : )


I love the sun! We went to Koulon park with Cara, Justin and Daniel and had Ivars. We all crammed in one car which was a real treat ; )


A little daddy and son time at the park. Daniel was laughing so hard. Eowyn slept through the park experience. It's Justin's birthday tomorrow - happy birthday!


I absolutley love this kid. I am so happy that Eowyn has a friend like Daniel



I love you Cara! We are in for so much fun together with these kids

So, we were watching Daniel and we wanted to take the kids for a walk and he didn't have a coat so yes, we put him in pink! Sorry Justin


He still loved me and let me read him some stories


Dang she looks hot. (from Ben) Glade caught this and one more small mouth on dads birthday.


I absolutley love my little girl! She turned 10 months on her grandpa's 60th birthday!! This is her celebration shirt that grandma got for her. She cut her first tooth 2 weeks ago and the 2nd one just came through yesterday. The two bottom teeth.

The Hardebeck family hiking trip

Here are some pics of the family climbing Poo Poo Point in Issaquah.
This is where the paragliders take off from. The climb is 4 miles round trip and a 2000 feet elevation gain. Everyone made it up and down alive... Even Eowyn!

We almost had to leave Lili (Michelle's little dog) behind to be claimed by the mountain. Luckily Sherpa Tom risked his own life to carry her down.

(For the bottom picture) Everyone that made the trek. From left: Steve, Maverick, Alison, Janessa, Lili, Michelle, Galadriel, Eowyn, Ben, Patti (YEAH MOM!!!), Sherpa Tom, Melody, and Matt.
