Katie just had her first ballet recital. She did so well, we were so proud of her. She wasn't afraid at all to go on stage. I don't know who had more fun...me watching or her dancing. We love you, Katie!!!


Trip to Arizona

I went to Scottsdale to visit one of my best friends from high school, Tippy. I had so much fun!! I couldn't believe how beautiful and HOT it was there. Average temp was like 110!! Despite the heat, there were so many beautiful flowers. Tippy usually comes to visit me during her spring break, but this year she flew me out there. We ate A LOT and basically just hung out. Perfect vacation. Thanks Tip!!

Dempsey (one of Tip's babies)


Ana ( her newest baby) they rescued her from a puppy mill, where she spent the first three years in a cage having puppies. She didn't set foot on ground until she was freed. She is the sweetest little girl.

CONGRATULATIONS KATIE!!!

Katie's "continuation" celebration was today. Tomorrow is her last day of Kindergarten. I can't believe this year is over, it went by so fast!! Katie loved school, and her wonderful teacher. Mrs. Varner continuosly told us how sweet Katie was, and what a good girl she was. Hello!!! Of course she is!! I am so proud of Katie. I am sad at how fast she is growing up, but it sure is fun knowing this girl.

Riley and Katie
He lived around the corner and would bring Katie home from school. He is moving and we are so sad. She keeps trying to tell us he is her boyfriend. But she only says it when he is over playing. I don't think she knows what it means. They are pretty cute together.

Katie and Shakira


Icouldn't get a picture of just Katie, she wanted Isaac in it with her. I love how close they are!!

getting her "diploma"... they even switched sides of the cap with their strings.

Happy Easter!!!














We took these last week, I love that they are such good friends!!

Happy Birthday, Isaac!!!

I can't believe Isaac is 4 years old. It has gone by so fast, and been so much fun. Isaac is such a sweet and tender little boy. He LOVES his sister, and his favorite thing to do is play with her. Last night we were asking Isaac what were a few of his favorite things, and this is what he came up with.
1. He loves Katie
2. He loves cars and trains. (couldn't decide which one he liked better.)
(and by cars I mean Pixar Cars, and trains is Thomas)
3. He loves pancakes.
4. He loves Daddy more than Mommy. (this week)
5. His best friend is Nathan.
6. And his favorite movie is stil Cars. (shocking, i know)


Isaac loves to play on the computer. For not being able to read he navigates it like an expert.


He cried when Katie went to school. It was pretty hard on him, he loves her so much.
He loves listening to music with Daddy.
Turned 3 with a Thomas party.

4th of july2008
He put out a sparkler with his hand, and got burned!! It was so sad.
He took a digger on a skate board, and cried a lot. He is my kid that will cry over a little thing, you give him a kiss and he is fine. All he needs is a little reassurance, but he needs that little hug. He is so sweet.

Turned 2 with a Cars party at Chuck E Cheese's.


Just a cute little picture right before his B-Day.
They have ALWAYS loved to snuggle with eachother.

This was the summer of 2007, he was already obsessed with Cars.


I love this one of them.
