When Little Brothers Graduate

Nothing makes you feel old like watching your little brother graduate. So proud of him! Can't wait to see the amazing things that lie ahead for him! Congratulations, Kyle!

“Out there things can happen
and frequently do
to people as brainy
and footsy as you.
And when things start to happen,
don’t worry. Don’t Stew.
Just go right along.
You’ll start happening too.”
—Oh, the Places You’ll Go! 
(Dr. Seuss)

Here's a little glimpse of the kind of talent this kid has - he welded this on his own outside of his shop class - just for fun! Pretty amazing, huh?? :) That's my bro!

New Beginnings

I am a little slow on posting this, but my Dad got married last Saturday! So happy to be able to be there on his special day! So excited and happy for them both! :)

Giving Thanks

Looking at this photo just makes me smile! We all stood there like that for a good 20 minutes as each person's camera was switched out so everyone could take the picture! Thank goodness I remembered to bring the tripod this year - it helped! Though we need 5 more so we could use all the cameras at once!

My Dad's side gathered together this past weekend to celebrate Thanksgiving and my aunt's birthday a little early this year - it worked out in most everyone's schedule to do so. Was able to enjoy turkey and all the fixings plus a lot of good family time - all un-rushed! The holidays are more hectic for us as we always have multiple functions to attend in one day. Having one Thanksgiving ahead of time definitely helps!



If the first pic made me smile, then this one makes me beam! As per tradition, my Grandpa knocks out cold after a hearty meal - hehe!
