These are my lovely children on Christmas day.....and my respected parents with Ryan's underwear on their heads....lol

This is the snowman the kids made last week when it snowed. Awwww, how cute!



We had a wonderful Christmas and hope all of our friends and family had the same. We love you ALL!

Milestones: Boys to Men

Well we celebrated big birthdays this past week. Zack turned 21 and Josh turned 18. Wow! How did that happen? Aren't they handsome? We celebrated together with a big family lunch and presents. It was fun having the boys and the girlfriends and the Gram and Papa over. Tostadas and cake and ice cream...o my! I've enjoyed watching them grow up and now I'm looking forward to watching them develop as the young men God created them to be.

Halloween

Ryan was a Tigger this year. He wore this costume a couple of years ago also. This will be the last year since it won't fit for much longer.

Shelby made her "Pirate Princess" costume herself. She took an old princess costume and attacked it with scissors. We bought a hat and an eyepatch. She borrowed the sword from her brother and the look was complete.

This is Shelby and Ryan (in the middle) with some of their friends at Halloween. Remember wax lips? What fun we miss when we "grow up!"
