Boys Will Be Boys

Corn On The Cob

YUMMMM....

More Boys...

Congratulations to my brother Bill and sister-in-law Michelle who recently announced they will be welcoming twin boys in February! Our family is ever growing. 3 more boys will added by early next year-- so fun!

Zoo

We were shocked to return to St. Louis and the temperature to be in the low 80's. Thank goodness! We thought we would take full advantage and head to the zoo.

I was laughing because for the first time Connor insisted we ride the train first thing.

Prayers

Please keep my Dad and our family in your daily prayers. My Dad recently has been diagnosed with lymphoma. He is waiting to hear back regarding when he will begin chemotherapy and radiation treatments. My Dad is such a strong and inspirational man. He has already beaten prostate cancer and melanoma and we are praying that this time will be just as successful. He has so many people backing him up with support, love, and prayers. We are praying that Dad overcomes this obstacle with ease. Thank you in advance for all of your thoughts and prayers.

Destin

We are back from Destin - sad :-( We had a wonderful trip! Connor was all in all pretty good, we had amazing weather, good company, and yummy food-- who could as for anything more? I can't say that Connor loved the beach, but he did tolerate it here and there. He did, however, LOVE the pool- especially because he can swim by himself (well, with his floaties on). We had SO much fun-- it is good to be home safe and sound, but oh what we would do for another week there.

Here are a some pictures-- sorry it is a lot, but it is hard to cram a week into a few pictures. ;-)

Not so much love at first sight

Connor's first time in ocean-- my camera was a little foggy

Connor and James on a "boat"

Packing the cooler

Our friends John, Marissa, and Avery were also in Destin last week. We met up for dinner and play time.

Connor and Great Scott

Loved jumping in the pool!!

If you're looking for us this week...

...We'll be right here.

3 Years

Mike and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary today. We went out for a delicious dinner date. Thanks Aunt Marla, Uncle Joe, Anna, and Elizabeth for watching Connor for us. Happy Anniversary Mike-- thanks for 3 wonderful years and an amazing little boy. I love you!!
