Florida Trip

We just got back from a wonderful and relaxing trip to Florida. We split our time between theme parks and relaxing by the pool. Enjoy the photos!

Halloween

We had a great time at her class party. She is currently eating a Gobstopper while sucking on a sucker. Her teeth are screaming!!!!

Noa and the Animals

I think that we need to get Noa a larger bed. She is all of our animals favorite and they all sleep with her. The poor girl is usually hanging off the bed when we check on her.

The Tooth Fairy

Avery is eagerly awaiting her first visit from the tooth fairy!!!!

First Day of School

Avery was ready and FABULOUS for her first day of Kindergarten. Noa was excited but a bit nervous to be starting at a new school. Avery got quite a few stares and comments as we walked into school. THANK YOU GRANDMA FOR SUCH A GREAT SKIRT.

Crazy Hair Day

High Dive

[click play to watch]

Noa is working on her diving at Dive Camp. In this video she is diving off the high dive which is around 10 feet high.

Tiger Game

Avery and I went to the Tiger game on Friday. A rain delay in the 4th inning cut our night short but we still had a blast. Dan







Most people say the People Mover was a terrible idea but Avery would disagree--she could have rode that train in a circle all night long!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

We had a wonderful Mother's Day! We went to lunch with Grandma and Bompah, weeded part of the yard, and enjoyed the sunshine.

A happy Saturday morning with Avery. The bottom picture was taking in the middle of her daily tantrum. For some reason she still thinks that these meltdowns will get her what she wants. How could we dare go to Noa's soccer game and actually want to watch soccer instead of playing on the playground with her?

"...your photos will be destroyed"

About a year ago we dropped off a roll of film at Meijer to get developed and forgot to pick up the pictures. After 6 phone calls reminding us, the lady at Meijer said, "if you don't pick them up by Sunday, your photos will be destroyed". Just look at the pictures we would have missed if they would have destroyed them.
