Summer Pictures

The boys and I joined the DeBoer's for a trip to Binder Park Zoo a few weeks ago. Joel loved the DVD player in my truck. We had a wonderful time at the zoo with Amy and Joel! The boys, all of them, loved feeding the goats, riding on the train, and feeding the giraffes! We wore Joel out! It was awesome. And it was really fun for Amy and I to hang out and watch these boys discover all the animals.

Last week Mel and Sheri came over along with all their kids! That was great. A toys hurricane had ran thru my house! They had so much fun. Everyone helped clean up before they left. Well, that night, we got ready for bed and Puppy, Kaden's dog that he sleeps with, was GONE! Oh no! We looked everywhere for it and no sign of Puppy. Finally, I put Kaden to bed with another stuffed animal and told him I would keep looking for Puppy and we'd find him in the morning. He didn't like that, but he was fine. I got to the bottom of the steps and I hear Kaden begin to cry. His little heart was broken! I felt so bad. Okay, where is Puppy! I have to find him. I did find him outside in the back of our toy Gator. I brought him up to his room and his little sweet face lit up! He hugged Puppy and said "Thank you Mommy!" Ahhh, my eyes just filled with tears. He then looked at Puppy, kissed him, and said "I missed you!". Ahh, what a sweet heart!



Kurt, the boys, and I got in a huge water fight last weekend! This pictures is worth a thousand words! Oh ya, this picture was taken after Kaden asked me if he could go swimming in our little kids pool. It took Kaden 20 minutes to realize that he was FULLY clothed! We laughed so hard!!


Here are some pictures from my 30th birthday party. I thank all of you who could be there and everyone for your wishes and thoughts!


The month of August will be pretty laid back. My best friend, Kim, and her new baby, Lindsey, are planning to visit us from Florida and I'm really looking forward to that.
