Husband of the year

Jer surprised me with a new camera and I was so happy I cried. It (the camera not me) takes the most amazing pictures. And now maybe I can actually get a picture of my girls looking at the camera and smiling at the same time!

A new adventure

I have been too excited for Ashley to embark on her new adventure and start school to feel sad about my little one growing up, but I have to admit I felt a twinge of panic as I dropped her off for her first day. Nothing quite prepares you for the moment you realize that she is growing up fast and that she will only be your little one for a blink of an eye.

We went out on a date the Saturday before school started and she picked out her own outfit for the first day. Had to have the headband and the purse to complete the outfit.

Summer fun

We had a great summer with lots of fun adventures!

Jer painted the house...


My girlfriend taught me how to cook a turkey, so we had Thanksgiving in June...


The girls got to be in a parade...


And then got drenched in a summer storm!


And we had lots of fun visiting family...


And friends!
