Flowers for me?!?!?

We went on a 3 day family vacation. It was awesome! We went to a indoor water park for 2 days and on the 3rd day we went to Kings Island. The kids had a blast. It was so much fun to see them having a blast. Luke got to ride his first roller coaster and he screamed like a girl. With a smile on his face. He LOVED it! Ryan is so chill he did not care if he was too short to go on a ride and Aubree got to go on the really big roller coasters and LOVED them. I forgot my camera but purchased a throw away camera. Once the pictures are developed I will add them. I got a call from a floral company saying they dropped some flowers off at the door. I called my neighbor and she put them in the house. Lisa ( friend from church)sent them to me wishing us the best with the birth of Braden. She and her family just adopted a little girl. It was so sweet and I was very touched. Braden is due in about 3.5 weeks. I used this weekend getting ready for him. Washed clothes, blankets and so on. I packed some bags so we will be ready to go as soon as we get the call. To keep it real I am a nervous wreck. I am not nervous about having another child in our family. I am nervous about the possibility of it not happening. I pray all the time for comfort and it really helps. I also pray for Christina. I have family who have placed their babies for adoption and I have felt the feelings of I am sure she is feeling. I just pray she has peace. That is what I pray for me and her. When and if Braden comes home with us I will always kiss him twice. Once From me and once for His first Mom. it's late and I am going to bed!

Welcome Baby Sullivan

Jamie's sister Julie added baby # 6 to her family!! He was born July 9th the same day as Luke's birthday! I think they were even born around the same time. Pretty cool!

My Hot Bod Sisters

My sister is in California visiting and it looks like they are having fun. I wish I was there. However, after seeing them looking so good I am glad my 12 year old figure is not on the beach with them.

Happy Birthday Luke!!!

Luke turned 4 today! 4! Where did time go? He had a small party today as well. He invited a few of his friends and they seemed to have fun! We had crafts, a pinata and a little swim time. It rained most of the day but

they got to dip in the baby pool for a little while.

4th of July Weekend

Papa (Jamie's Dad) came out to see us 4th of July weekend. His Mom is in Utah with his sister helping her prepare for baby # 6! Baby is due any day now. We love when Papa comes. The kids adore him and Jamie is always happy to spend time with his Dad. He's a great Dad, Father in law and Papa! We went to a car show one day and well here is a picture of us at the car show...

Here is Ryan falling asleep after a long day of sugar!

I got a cake for Luke to celebrate his birthday while Papa was in town. Ryan knocked the cake on the floor. It was still in the box so we could eat it. It looked terrible though.

Aubree loves to play pool with Papa and Dad. I played too and hit a few lucky shots. Jamie hates playing with me cause I wont let him teach me how to play.

Grandma

I was looking through my Mom's website pictures and found this picture of my Grandma. This was taken last summer.

Sisters

I have 4 sisters. None live close to me but we all keep in touch. There are so many memories with my sisters. Watching my oldest sister Deanna going on dates with cute guys and me day dreaming it was me. Admiring Delna the prom queen, cheerleader, popular senior. I was the dorky freshman. The older kids were nice to me when they found out I was her sister. She let me hang with her the 1st few weeks of school and then informed me I needed to find my own friends. High school freaked me out. Danielle the awesome singer. She really has a great voice. She also is really good with animals. She has a tender heart. Then there is Dawnette the one with the pretty smile. She loves to laugh a lot and is sarcastic. She is the baby of the family. They all have such good hearts. We are sooo different in so many ways but in the end we are still sisters who love each other. Oh and yes Dawnette. I stole this picture off your myspace. It is a cute picture!
