I guess all those papers in college still manifest themselves...just in different ways!

Sister's Graduation

I know, it's weird, I don't ever call my sister by her name. She's just "sister" to me. I meant to post these pictures a while ago, it just never happened, so here you go! It was kind of difficult keeping Owen entertained during the ceremony...I think this picture represents the only time I was successful.

Congratulations Sister, I'm so proud of you! It was so fun being with you on that special day. I feel like for that last couple of years, you've been the one there for me at all the important times in my life, and it was really nice for a little role reversal. I can't wait to support you on other important days of your life.

Maybe a Little Weird, but Bear With Me

So, I was looking through some pictures on my computer of what to post, and I had a bunch of Kailey and her best friend Caden. As I uploaded them to my blog, I couldn't help but notice something. See if you can guess.....


What do you think? When else do you possibly take a carriage ride, eat cake (maybe get it all over your face), and then top it all off with a hot bath? I don't know, Heidi and Curtis, this may be a foreshadow of what we're in for in twenty years! I hear wedding bells....


And of course, they live happily ever after!

Summer Fun Snapshots


The kids really like playing on the mock 4-wheeler. We gave this to Kailey as a present the same day we brought Owie home from the hospital - we were trying to "soften the blow."
The kids both love jumping on the tramp! We really need to get one in our backyard. This is at their Nana's house.

It''s No Wonder He Won't Eat His Green Beans

I was in my bedroom folding clothes and the kids were being too quiet. I walked out and found this! Kailey had so beautifully shared her treat with Owie.


This was Owie at Kailey's birthday party. It looks like I'm going to need two birthday cakes for him to satisfy his sweet tooth!

I'm Two!

Kailey's birthday was last Tuesday, and we had a blast! She really enjoyed turning two and having all the birthday attention on her. Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure!Her Daddy got her some balloons, and the Tinkerbell one was her favorite - she's really into Peter Pan right now.
I had to put this picture in, because I'm really proud of that quilt I gave her. I made it - impressive huh:)...atleast for me it is! That cute rocker is from her Grandma and Dennis and she's opening a kite her daddy got her. They flew it the next day, and the string broke, and the kite flew away...so sad!
Her Nana got her that butterfly puzzle. She loves doing it, well she makes me do it, but she tears all the pieces out.
That's her butterfly birthday cake. It turned out pretty cute, despite the fiasco we had baking it the night before. (see previous entry if you don't know the story)

Too Many Cooks in the Kitchen

So, we're having a birthday party for Kailey tomorrow, as she's turning 2 on Tuesday, and I needed to bake her cake. I thought it would be fun if she helped me push the buttons on the mixer. WRONG! Actually, it worked just fine until she got a little button happy. I was pouring the water into the bowl, and the mixer was in the up position, and she thought it would be a good idea to turn it on. I can't say a whole lot more about it other than, I almost peed my pants! Here are some pictures...ENJOY!
