Monumental Catch-Up!

Over Memorial Day we went to Uncle Jay and Aunt Nicki's house for the weekend. Makes me so sad to post these pictures since that was one of the last times we saw our Blair....

Always the mother hen.


Her way of making him not cry anymore.


The Fab Five



Checking out the scenery


Yet another attempt at a good shot of my two together!


...and another. I give up!


While at Uncle Jay and Aunt Nicki's - we celebrated Ashleigh's birthday with a little party.

Alright with the girls stuff already! We're bored!


Ashleigh - surrounded by family and all that birthday loot!


Just the first of many times Barbies will be played between these two!


CAKE!


Post-Sugar FRENZY!!


Aunt Nicki took Ashleigh and Jalynn for a ride in the bike carrier - they loved it!


Cowboy Alex


Jalynn and Milo - just relaxing. Unfortunately we had to say our goodbyes and head back home....We'll be back again - we had a blast!


School ran so late this year due to snow days - Vacation Bible School started before school was even over for the year.

All ready to go in.


Alex and Ashleigh with Alex's pre-k teachers Ms. Iverson and Ms. Merrick


He is going to get me for this one some day!


Trying to get a good shot of the two of them for a Father's Day gift for Mark - a pic for his desk. Ain't easy!!

My silly Boy!!


My angels - right before a wrestling match ensued!


The car masterpiece. My boy sure does love to line up cars!


On July 4th we decided to rent a boat and go out on the lake.

My girl sure loves her daddy.


Mama's boy!


One of our favorite spots to play when it's 100 degrees outside!


Tuckered kids -- time to go!


You never know what Daddy is going to do. He keeps us laughing!!

Rest in Peace, Bugs



On July 4th, our 11 year old niece Blair (far right in the picture) was shot by a stray bullet and unfortunately it did so much damage, she is no longer with us. It was a senseless random act and I hope that the KCPD catch up with the person responsible before my brother gets ahold of them.

We love you Bugs. Look down upon us from time to time little Angel.
