A visit with Spongebob

The kids saw on tv that Spongebob was going to be at the mall. So we trekked up to quincy, walked the entire mall until we found him, took a picture and left. HA!!! it sure made it sound alot more fun then it actually was on tv! But, here is there big amazing pic of spongebob ( marlee was totally creeped out so shes not in the pic!)

Soldier Tag

So my kids have been blessed this summer to play outside almost constantly. This particular night, they had fun with some of the neighbors and they played soldier tag when it got dark... all you could see was the little glowstick necklaces we bought them bobbing around in the dark as they chased each other and laughed so hard! I think they look pretty cool dont you!

spending the night with cousin angie

dylan and marlee went to cousin angies and spent the night with her and andrew and alex. they had alot of fun from what i've heard!!! they stayed up really late and played hard! of course Marlee came home with fancy hair, she loves when angie does her hair! Im so thankful they get to play with family and spend time with them.

Playdate at the River

sydney has made friends with the little boy across the street who is just her age! we took the two of them downtown to the river for a little playdate. Candy bars, throwing rocks in the river, seeing fish scales, and waving at the people on the boats, they had a really great time! Plus they are just dang cute :)

Keith's 30th Birthday

So, I love my husband. He's a hunk and quite an awesome guy. Did I mention he's a great dad? Well, for his 30th birthday I invited family to Madison park in quincy and we had a big dinner and tons of fun! So many people showed up, I was in awe at all the people that love my Keith !!!!
There is about a million more pictures I want to add on here, but alas, no room :) I love you Keith Landon!!!

Dylan's 10th Birthday!

Wow, it is still hard to believe that I just typed in that Dylan is 10!!!! He had a harry potter lego birthday and it just so happened that his birthday fell on the same date as the barry firemans chicken dinner, so we got to celebrate big time! We headed to grandma odie's and aunt ruth and uncle bobby and eric and mark were there and uncle rusty and aunt kim and we had a blast!!

Spending time at Aunt Sandy's and Uncle Bob's

The kids love visiting aunt sandy and uncle bob! they love to eat dinner around the table with them and play with the kittens and their poodle claudine!

Marlee's Birthday continued

For Marlee's actual birthday, we went to barry and had dinner with aunt sandy and uncle bob and then went to grandma odie's where she had prepared a special pink angel food cake for marlee!!!

Marlee's Baptism

My beautiful daughter marlee sarah beth was baptized!! It took her a long time to do it, because she has autism and is terrified of water, but her sweet spirit is strong and her testimony is strong! It was one of the most spiritual baptisms i have ever attended and the fact that it was my daughter made it even more special!
here are some pics!

Catching Up!

wow, i am soo behind as usual ! so many neat things have happened this past summer! My babies each had birthdays, Marlee was baptized, we did alot of neat things. It was a fun summer! So I will try now and get things caught up, in no particular order haha!
Love, JL
