Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day...our girls are so blessed to have you for their father.

In need of a good laugh

I didn't know what to post following the pictures of the tornado. So, I thought I would refresh everyone of my favorite You Tube beauty salon clip.

No one slept in Manhattan last night...

new backside

so, for an investment of $50 bucks I receive a new pair of shoes and the potential of having these legs...I'm really stoked about my new fit flops.

my first dilly bar

It's true, I've never devoured a dilly bar - just not much of a chocolate coated ice cream fan. I always went for the cherry Mr. Misty's instead...until, Monday night, our family dug into the dilly bar box and now we've all tried this tasty treat.

Hospital HillSSSSS

Our family had a splendid time this past weekend in KC for the Hospital Hill run. The only problem, besides the heat and wind, it was not Hospital HILL it was Hospital HILLSSSS. Oh well, it made for a great experience and memories that I will never forget. Here's a few photo's of the weekend:

accomplishments

I can't believe the family I used to babysit are now empty nesters. The youngest boys graduated from high school the last weekend of May. I started babysitting Kristen and Aaron when they were the ages 4 and 3. The twins came along a few years later. Kristen is now working in Texas, Aaron is finishing college in Emporia and Kyle and Kurtis are off to college at K-State and Arkansas. Amazing...

Good Luck Boys.

Last day of school

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know the last day of children's day out (AKA preschool) was almost a month ago but I just rec'd the picture this afternoon. I guess that's what happens when you're not the one behind the camera, you must wait for the taker to send you the picture. I'm still waiting on the gal who took a few pics when I chopped 9 inches off my hair. She's holding out on me. I digress...how cute are those kiddos and how did they achieve all those smiles?

15 monther

I can't believe my baby girl is 15 months today - just days away from being a toddler. INSANE.

in a matter of seconds

Today was officially the hardest day in Josh's 6 year history of being a State Farm agent. I realize it could be a lot worse...I can't imagine what ALL the employees were feeling when the softball size hail hit the Tech Park. Here's just a sample of a few cars that were remaining tonight.


Really, these are the nightmares that Josh has at night and today it became a reality. Thankfully, the girls, my niece and nephew were safe at Panera eating bagels, sipping on a coffee and playing "where's the lip gloss" to pass the time. It's extremely unfortunate for the hundreds who were at the Tech Park and at other locations around town working when this hail storm hit with such fiery.
