First Ice Cream Cone


Joseph enjoyed his first drive through trip at Dairy Queen when he actually got something of his own. He has always had bites when we get home, but the last few trips were hard to watch through the rear view as he screamed and watched ava and ryan enjoying their treats. Cheers!!

Dempsey Wedding

Ryan & Ava made it down the isle. Ryan was a little embarrassed he had to walk with ava. Ava did a fabulous job with the petals. She was literally tossing them up in the air so she could walk through them. Tommy was still at work and I had the kids by myself. I needed to be all business so the very last thing I said before we got out of the car was "I expect you two to behave and get along. If you don't walk down the isle like you were asked we will NOT be going to the pool at all this summer and it is supposed to be hot!!" Looks like we have a long nice summer at the Pool!!

Our picture seems so small without Joseph. We gladly accepted grandma Jody's offer to take him off our hands for our busy day. Ryan and Ava were flower girl & ring bearer for Uncle Mike & Aunt Heather Dempsey's wedding. The kids had so much fun and danced the night away. Ryan's got some great moves!! Ava paired up with some older girls and Joseph weaved in and off the dance floor with binkie and blankie in hand. Thanks to all for a fun week, weekend, and party. We welcome family anytime to come and stay. Congrats Mike and Heather. Your tuxes got back to your tux lady safely and on time!! We love you.

Tommy and Jim proudly displayed their double whammy after an early morning turkey hunt back behind the house. The kids were all over the turkeys. Sadly, a few days ago Ava found the turkey feet on a shelf in the garage while trying to get to her barbie bike. She asked who's feet and why they had no body. I said dad had saved them after the hunt and she replied "oh, that's too bad"

Bird dog


Ryan is becoming quite the dog handler. Moss spent most of his Sunday retrieving decoys the kids hid in all sorts of places. In this picture, Ava had hid the bird on top of the trailer and Moss is being sent out by Ryano to fetch it up.

Happy Easter 2008!!


All the kids were so good this year the Easter Bunny decided to make a suprise visit!! YOU can tell Ava is so in love with the pink nose and whiskers. Kaleb and Ryan decided he wasn't real because they could see his collar in the back, skin around his gloves, and socks next to his paws. What party poopers.

Joseph is not so annoying to them and they love trying to get him to do new stuff. (like a pet) This is Joseph's first attempt of Jumping on the bed. Knock on wood we have had no broken bones or stitches!!

My little Ponies


Ava's newest love is the old my ponies we found in rubbermaid containers last week when we went through toys. I think almost all of them are from her aunts!! She dresses them up with bracelets and calls them each princess. The artwork displayed is a CASTLE!!! oooohhh!! A few minutes after the picture Joseph walked through and kicked the ponies over. boo hoo.

1st Zoo trip of the Year

Joseph enjoyed being pushed around the zoo. I let him out a few times but he was perfectly happy to take in the sights from the comfort of his own stroller. Living the life.
