Lauren's Almost 11yrs Old

Okay- Lauren doesn't actually turn 11 for a few more weeks but she insisted on a pool party. So we had to do it before the water changed temps. The party was a big hit! Only 18 girls showed up and one lonely brother. Now she is counting the days until she really turns the magical 11!!

Alaska can keep the white stuff!

I just got back from a quick trip up to Alaska this week. As you can see, it snowed a few weeks early this year and it almost felt like Christmas.

My Three Little Princesses

Just thumbing through some old photos tonight and came across " PRINCESS PATRICK". He used to spend hours letting his sisters dress him up. Sadly, he would have made an adorable little girl. Let's just say that this is one of many incriminating photos his girl friends will see. He better pray that he never runs for president.

Family Night Out at DIAMONDBACKS Game

The kids had so much fun learning about the players, eating junk and staying up really late on a school night. They earned it though so good job reading kids. Keep up the great work.

PROUD TO BE AMERICAN

After recently spending time in a foreign country, we had the humbling experience of remembering what a wonderful country we could go back to. So take a moment in your day to be thankful for the little things you have and those that you hold dear to your heart.
