cute cousins

We are lucky to have great cousins nearby!  Over the holiday weekend we had Aunt Wend and kids come for a visit.

basketball #3

With most sports that our kids play we don't take pictures until usually the last game.  Sorry Aust, we have very few pics of you playing basketball this year.  He really did have a great year, they even won the championship!  He had a great coach and a fun team!

birthday

This year my birthday was on a Sunday.  Typically I don't love Sunday birthdays but this one was amazing.  My family totally took care of me.  I didn't have to cook, clean up and I even got to have a nap.  My favorite gift was a trip to Italy!  How lucky am I?

parker always makes these large creative cards (this one is a tree with a catchy slogan)

jelly bellies are my favorite (and hayd's and ain's)

award

Parker was given the RESPECT award for his class at an assembly for his school.  He was so excited and we were super proud of him.  He couldn't stop smiling.
