2 POSTS IN JULY?

This one is for you Paradise. Nathan, Joe and Angel came over the other night. Chris' sister also joined us. We had 9 big kids and 7 little kids playing, drinking and bar-b-que-ing. It was a lot of fun. It was so cool to see Alan. We eventually figured out that we had a 2 yr old, 3 yr old, 4 yr old, 5 yr old, 2-7 yr olds and of course Laci. They all played together nicely and didn't get to bed until after 10.... oops. Here are some pics of the event.

Sue and Thomas had a lovely wedding earlier this month and just got back from their honeymoon in Hawaii. Britten and Hailey did a great job with their roles but I don't have any digital pictures to share yet. Hopefully soon. Chris and I went Whitewater Rafting two weekends ago. It was so crazy and cool. If anyone will be around July 12-13 of next year, let us know so you can join us. It's an incredible experience.
Talk to everyone soon.
Happy Birthday to Ben and belated Birthday to Siven. If anyone talks to Psalms - I need her address and/or phone number.

HAPPY INDEPENDANCE DAY

Congratulations to Simon and Michelle on the birth of their son. I don't know his name yet but I'm sure it'll be a nice one. Can't wait to hear all about him and maybe even meet him and little Kyle one of these days.

We took the kids to the local 4th of July parade this morning. It was pretty cool but very hot. It was still over 100 degrees at 7 this evening. Jackson played in the kids' pool to keep cool.
Happy July and late June birthdays to Paradise, Austin, Amber, and Siven. Of course the new little guy will be right in there, 1/2 way between Austin and Amber - better give him an "a" name.

Susan and Thomas get married this weekend. How exciting. It's supposed to cool down by about 10 degrees so it ought to be perfect. Congratulations to them.

The first picture above is Hailey trying on shoes in my closet and the other is the kids and Jackson posing at the parade.
