Luke Turns 10!!

On December 4th 2011, our Luke turned 10 years old! Luke is such an amazing boy and we are so blessed to have him in our family. We couldn't have asked for a better big brother to our other boys.
We LOVE you, Luke!!

Ashlie and Joe's Wedding







My niece Ashlie married Joe Estrada on November 26th 2011. It was a wonderful wedding and Ashlie was such a beautiful bride! She and Joe compliment each other very well and I am so happy for them. Ashlie and I have grown so close over these past couple of years and I consider her one of my very best friends. She has grown into a strong, amazing woman and I am proud of her. I know her mom is proud of her, too. I feel very blessed to have been a part of Joe and Ashlie's special day. I'm happy that I was able to be there to help Ashlie in ways that her mom might have, if she were still alive. It means to world to me to be able to help fill Carrie's shoes and to be there for Ashlie as best as I can.
Congratulations, Ashlie and Joe!!
Now on to the next milestone....baby Chloie (due November 2012)!!!


Don't Look Back

When all of the photos that I had put on this blog got erased, I was so ticked that I couldn't even look at the blog without fuming! After all of these months, I finally decided to just move forward from here and forget about my erased pictures.

I retitled the blog because our family is just beginning to experience many adventures in many different places and I want to document all of the fun and not so fun times! It's never a dull moment in this family, so buckle up, and enjoy the ride!!

Squinkie Wedding

Jake got a hold of my camera the other day, and this is what I found. I cracked up!!! Especially after he explained to me that the Squinkies were getting married in these pictures! He also put a Lego helmet on the Wolverine squinkie just for the wedding : )

Luke Gets His Bear Badge

Luke earned his Bear badge and was awarded it last night! He really does enjoy Cub Scouts and I'm grateful for the values, life skills, and responsibility it has helped him learned. When he turns 10 in December, he will be moving on to Webelo's! Way to go, Luke! We are so proud of you and love you very much!!
