Family Celebration

We celebrated WHK's "real" birthday with a taco dinner, presents and cake! Mum, Apa, Aunt Jenny and Ava were all able to help celebrate (Grandy was out of town). Here are a few of the highlights: opening his BIG gift, a Nintendo DS, and having cake. More celebrations to follow this weekend.

Happy Birthday To My Sweet Boy!

Wow! Seven years ago our lives radically changed with the (very dramatic) entrance of our sweet, sweet WHK!

Happy birthday Buddy! Daddy and I love you so very much!

Our Summer Thus Far...

It is wedding season at work, and there are flowers everywhere! It is lots of work, but lots of fun.

We had a wet and wild week at VBS. Here is WHK and his good pal, KK enjoying the fun. E-mail me for a link to our crew's awesome blog for a slide show of all the craziness, I mean, fun!

WHK had an excellent report from the nephrologist! Woo hoo!

We went to the most beautiful wedding of the flower girl from our own wedding fifteen years ago! For more photos of this cute couple, click here.

WHK has hijacked my hutch to make his first ever Lego Hall of Fame. Get your tickets now because this is a limited showing!

We made a refrigerator swap with my parents. WHK is enamored with the ability to get cold water and crushed ice cubes at his convenience. Life is good!

Our Trip In Pictures

Our Trip To San Antonio!

We had a most wonderful trip to San Antonio more photos to come soon (it is VBS week!)...here are some fun facts about our trip:

• Daddy had to work, so we played! My BFF (since 1985), Amy, and two of her three boys came along to join in the fun!


• We stayed at a wonderful hotel that served Texas shaped waffles every morning for breakfast!


• Our hotel was so close to the Alamo, we spent many a night enjoying its beauty while eating ice cream and letting the boys play.


• We spent two fun-filled days at Sea World visiting Shamu and friends! We were able to feed and pet the sweet dolphins both days!


• We enjoyed the beautiful River Walk and ate delicious Mexican food every night!


• We saw (and remembered) the Alamo! We listened to a fascinating lecture and buffed up on our Texas history. Fact: 30 men with WHK's namesake gave their lives at the Alamo--isn't that interesting?


• We had a brush with fame! We met Big Brother (season 5) contestant Nakomis! Amy is a loyal follower of the show and was quite excited (photo to come soon...).


• We came home and jumped right into VBS...it has been a crazy time and we are ready for some lazy days of summer.
