Desert Fun

Jack has been BEGGING to see Luke and Collin for months now. He was over the moon when he got a chance to spend the day with them Friday. They played at the park for a while and then we all enjoyed a delicious lunch at Pizza Vino. Great food, great company!
Extra bonus was seeing Great Tutu on Thursday! We grabbed deli lunch on our way into town and descended upon her quiet home with our motley crew. The kids were wound up from being in the car for a few hours, but Grandma Dotte handled it with her usual grace and charm. It was so wonderful to sneak a few hours in with her.
Now finally home after too many days away. Nothing like tucking into your own bed after several days away.

Christmas Kisses for Shannon and Lauren

This just melted my heart this morning....watching Shannon and Lauren give each other Christmas Kisses.  A memory maker for sure.  Merry Christmas everyone!

Rude Language

Sometimes Mommy and Daddy just need a good laugh :-)

Happy 5th Birthday Jack!

Five years ago today, our beautiful little miracle boy came into our lives and changed it for the better.  In light of what occurred last Friday, I can only say that we are especially lucky and blessed to have him in our life and we cherish every moment with him.

Happy Birthday Jack!
