Happy Father's Day!  God couldn't have given my kiddos a better Daddy!  We love you Rob! 

Squash from the Garden

Aiden was thrilled that his squash plants produced their first harvest!  We picked 4 beautiful summer squash and fried them up for lunch!  Yum, yum!!!

Family Vacation 2013

We were so excited to be able to take a few days of vacation and go to the beach.  We had such a great time and made lots of great memories.  We visited Ripley's Aquarium, took a helicopter ride and made a huge sandcastle on the beach.  Aiden learned to swim under water on this vacation making it even more memorable!

Graduation Day 6-7-13

On 6-7-13, Shay graduated from 8th grade and Aiden from Kindergarten.  Unfortunately, their ceremonies were at the same time!!  So.....Daddy went to Aiden's and Mommy went to Shaelyn's. We took lots of pictures.  Congrats to our two wonderful graduates!  We love you both so very much!!

Kindergarten Done!

Aiden has had quite a year in Kindergarten!  He has amazed us at just how much he has learned!  We are super-duper proud of him and know that he will make a terrific 1st grader!  I just wish he wasn't growing up so quickly!  (sniff, sniff). 

8th Grade - A Stepping Stone

It was just yesterday that out plane landed in Charlotte and we made our grand appearance with the most beautiful 7 month old baby girl.  Okay, so it wasn't actually yesterday, but it sure seems like it was.  I just can't seem to wrap my thoughts around the reality that the tiny baby girl is now a beautiful  young lady!  Shaelyn graduates from Middle School (8th grade) on Friday.  What?  This is crazy!  I'm sure that I am not the only mother who has wished to reverse the hands of time if only for a moment.  Today was her school's 8th grade banquet and Friday will be the graduation ceremony.  We are sooo proud of the young lady she has become!  We love you Shay.....forever and
for always!
