I Am Thankful...

He never lets a day go by with out showing me how much he loves and cares for me. No one else in the world can calm and center me better than he can. He never tells me no to any request I have ever made. He is an amazing father and a loving husband and I am grateful for him everyday.


His imagination makes everyday interesting and fun. Kenny is full of passion and has a real zest for life. He is very smart and a keen observer of the world. And he is an amazing big brother- especially with James.

He has such a sweet spirit about him. He is calm, thoughtful, and has a little streak of stubbornness. He is very loving and in tune with other emotions. If you ever need a hug, Nathan is the first in line.

He sure does have a mischievous streak but he brings joy to my heart and puts a smile on my face all the time. He has such a bright smile and a wonderful twinkle in his eye. I could sit and just watch him all day!

I love my family and I love being with them. I am also very blessed to have amazing in-laws. My family means everything to me and I would do anything for them.

I am grateful for many, many more things. I am truly blessed.

Pine Wood Derby Time


Kenny drew the design and put in the work (cutting, sanding, paints, etc.). He was incredible proud of his accomplishment. He took it to school and paraded it around to EVERYONE! I don't have any pictures of the actually event because we forgot the camera and the cell phone died. He didn't win, but he got a ribbon anyway and he learned a lot. He was a bit sad at first that he didn't place but we were able to talk to him about being proud of what he did and how much of the work he did himself instead of Daddy. It ended up being a great experience for him and he is excited for next year.

Air Show

Yes, we are still here Just very busy with school and life. A few weekend ago was the air show. Having a close connection to the airport FBO we are able to get free admission and tickets for free catered food and drinks. It is always a lot of fun.


We got to see the Thunderbirds F-16s. It was a good show, but they took a little while to actually take off and the kids got restless. We had ear protection for everyone except James who was too little for the ear plugs and who wouldn't wear the headphones. I just covered his ears with my hands and he put his hands on top of mine.
This is inside the NASA plane that carries the space shuttle piggy back across the country when it lands in a different place other than Florida. In the second picture you can se the clamps on the top of the plane.


This is Kenny and Nathan (James was sleeping in the stroller) enjoying some time in a few private jets. I think I want on e of these.

We got to see one of my favorite planes the B-52. Wewalked through the bay where they have the bombs. Totally cool. I love the HUGE planes. Look at the kids compared to just the wheel of this plane.

Ken likes litte, loud, and VERY fast planes. Go figure.
