Dad's Birthday Party

I know it's way past dad's bday, but I couldn't just let these pictures go to waste . . .
Even though everyone preferred the brownies over the cake, at least the cake made the pictures!
Cute mom, watching her husband turn 53!! (the candles aren't an accurate representation of the years-- I just forgot to buy more!)

Dinner with Grandkids

Hello everyone. Mom and I took a picture having dinner with the money that Danielle and Steve sent us to go out for my birthday. Just wished that they could be with us so we took a picture and set up some chairs for Ethan and Garrett. It was great. Thanks Steve and Danielle.

Utah or bust

Well everyone, I guess we better keep posting new stuff or you all will just quit looking at our blog. As you all know mom had a great Mothers Day. It was all nice to hear from all our children. (Even Derek) We just returend from Utah where we spent some time with Dawnia, Dana & Brian. We had a really good time. Oh I guess I shoud include my mother and Debbies brothers in our vist as well. We really had a good visit with everyone. Infact we had so much fun we want to move there. I'll keep you posted on our progress . Here are some pictures for you to enjoy.

Happy Birthday Dad!!!

Happy Birthday! Hope your day was FANTASTIC!

Sorry all the pics are of Dad and me or Dad and my kids...that's all I had! :)

Happy Mother's Day!

One sad truth about mom's life is that even though all her 6 children are grown up and out of the house, she never quite got away from the cheesy school-made gifts for christmas, mother's days, etc. One day I will grow up and leave the elementary school lifestyle, but in the meantime, as burdened as she is, she still puts on a big smile and tells me that she LOVES her handpainted christmas tree ornament shaped like a wreath with a school picture of her 24-year old daughter in the center! Just like when I was a little girl! Well, today, I have to burden her one last time as I glory in what I think is the most accurate likeness I have ever drawn of Mom as I prepared my class yesterday to do their Mother's Portraits. So mom, here you go . . . Happy Mother's Day!
