A Day at the Pool

These kids love the water, and I could talk them up, but unless you see them in action, it's hard to appreciate. Little Jennie and Josie diving into the water is something to see. The video of Jennie diving doesn't do her skills justice - she was so cold at this point she could barely move :) But still adorable.

Papa's Birthday

Best part of his birthday, for sure!

I love the looks on Grace and Faith's face . . .hahahaha.

Hangin' With Shawn

LOVE Cheryl

He is a beautiful man. Gilles.

I taught Grace how to sway the cell phone light during a concert. A life-long skill.

Derrick and Julianne

Steve-O

Shawn

The kid off of Hannah Montana - big hit with the 9 and under crowd.

They Kinda Like Watermelon

We like watermelon. We don't like the devil.

You'll have to watch the video for that to make any sense.

It was Bible School week, and the kids are armed with new singing materials, so I don't mind this phase. It's like a million times better than the Lady GaGa "Disco Stick" phase. At least they know who the devil is.

Family Pictures

For those of you on Facebook, these are mostly repeated. However, if you are my mother, these are especially for you!!!

Taken on the Iowa State University campus. I took some. Eddie took some. Jessie took some. However, I don't have Jess's yet. So more to come. The editing . . .well I get ALL the credit.

Four more Cyclones on the way. Wondering if "ISUJOSEPHINE" will fit on her licence.

Dirt Roadin'

My favorite picture from that day :)
Jennifer was very sleepy.

Oh, how I LOVE to do this. Perfect day.

Mark and Missy's Engagement

So glad we were a part of the happy news right after it happened :)
