40th Anniversary Party




John and Judy celebrated their 40th anniversary on Sunday and we (all the kids) threw them a party. We were able to visit with lots of relatives and old friends from all around the country. We had a great time but are definitely in recovery mode. Timmy is definitely tired of pictures!

Another Fair Favorite



Petting the sweet little chicks at the petting zoo-who wouldn't love that?

Lucy's favorite thing at the fair


One thing has remained constant for Lucy and that is her love of ducks. Who knew a little girl could love ducks so much? Is there anything cuter than her face in that picture-pure delight!

A New Tradition





I was so bummed to miss blueberry season last year. We are a family that loves blueberries! So this year I have been anxiously waiting and watching for the farms to open up. The kids and Idrove up there on Wednesday and spent about an hour picking blueberries. Timmy did great and I know he had fun because he talked nonstop. When he starts talking nonstop it means he's really happy! Lucy ended up mostly eating as we picked. We ended up with 6 pounds!

So far we have made: smoothies, blueberry pancakes (twice), blueberry pie (we took some to share with a few of the older widows from church), and blueberry cookies...now I'm working on freezing some.

4th of July 2009



It was wet and dreary but we made the best of it! We still grilled out with friends and did sparklers while it was misting...we did skip the fireworks. The kids were just happy to be able to hang out with their friends and get in some good playing time!
