CHILLIN' AT THE GREAT ESCAPE...

This lil nephew of mine couldn't be more in his glory loungin on the raft. Drew Drew thought he was sittin pretty with Addy right there by his side!

WHO NEEDS A POOL WHEN YOU GOT A BUCKET????

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!!

I cannot believe that this little man was once.....

SO ITTY BITTY!


On July 16th Jamison William will be ONE YEAR OLD!!!! Crazy to think that he used to fit into daddy's hat. He a busy lil man now getting into everything, but i must say that his favorite thing to do these days is BUG and TEASE his sister Jersi!!!! what a little dandy he is...and he knows just what he's doing cause he thinks it's SOOOO funny when she say "DON'T JAISON!" She leaves out the M in his name...TOO CUTE!

MORE picnic pics...

Why is it that everywhere papa goes he finds a little friend...this is one of Jamison's favorite buddies at school, they are the same age, but this little boy is a little more advanced and i think J.J. is learning a thing or two from him.

He learned to patty-cake this weekend...thanks to grandma and IS HE PROUD!

Great Grams enjoying the action and my busy little boy behind her causin trouble.

With the dedicated teachers they have i think Jamison will be walking in no time.

School picnics already...how old does that make ME???

Jamison William

Even Great Grandma made it to the big event...it was a hot one.

McKenna's favorite thing!

Lunch time in Jersi and Jamison's Room. It was a fun day for the kids, they were so proud to show mom, grandma, papaand great grandma their school.

Cousin Jaedon

Jaedon and Great-Grandma.

Bill and Jenna were able to skip up for a quick trip for the wedding. So fun to see them and the girls were overjoyed to see Jady-bop again. Although we didn't get to see them a whole lot being that i was busy with the wedding the three girls somehow managed to cause touble. At my mom's on friday, the three of them were playing upstairs and dumped a FULL gallon of paint onto the kitchen floor up there and didn't tell anyone. Luckily Jenna went up there or it would have dried like that. Bless her heart, she cleaned it all up and yes we have a picture of her cleaning up the mess but i'd like to stay on speaking terms with her so i will not post it :) When we asked the girls who did it they all said "not me" I dunno" or just stared blankly so in the end nothing was ruined and nobody got in trouble. Can't wait to see what they have in store for us next time!

May 15th 2010...

Karen and Jim's wedding!
What a fun and busy weekend. Can't wait to see more pictures.

Me and the bride.

Doesn't she look happy!

Bridal table.

The flowers were gorgeous...thanks to Jan.

SICK!!!

SAUNA ANYONE????




McKenna has a new thing about wearing ONLY flip flops and dresses lately. And normally she throws on the flip flops and where ever they land is where they stay. Someday i'll get a picture of them in btwn her middle toes.

This is our little man Jamison. He's 10 months already and quite the busy little boy. He's crawling and pulling himself up on furniture...or anything that he can get leverage on. Wow when everyone told me that boys are so different than girls i didn't believe it...but now i do!!! Don't mind the pink stroller...didn't feel like pulling out my huge double so he's gotta sit in that when mom's too tired!

How is it that they can get soooooo dirty in a matter of minutes?

This little tom-boy is by far my dirtiest but the eyes are ever enchanting even if the face is mucked up!

The one eyed wonder...

A story i couldn't resist sharing...

Last weekend my brother Dave got a puck right in the eye while playing hockey with no face mask...so to all of you who have husbands that play without one make sure they get one now. Anyway. the bad part was he was close to losing sight in that eye, but his son Max who is McKenna's age (3) brought some light to the situation. He was playing on the living room floor and yelling at Dave, "DAD WATCH ME" and repeated that a few times. Noticing that he was being ignored he said " DAD WATCH ME WITH YOUR ONE EYE" Hee hee! I just think that without kids we would all be miserable creatures amoungst one another. :) But Dave is now recovering well and has about 50% vision back in his eye so let's all hope he recovers fully soon.

Jamison William...

This is our happy "mini Corey" He's finally learning to roll over and gets what he wants when he wants it from his sisters, somehow they know what he needs its so fun to watch.

I can't find the words for this one.

Let's vote is it you tube worthy or not???

Don't mind Corey's camera skills... :)

Oh the memories!

This was one of our usual spots to take the kids to playon the playgrounds when we lived in IL. McKenna was asking to go to the park with the boats today. :)

oooh the memories.

Jamison's extemely distant cousin...

Don't even ask me to try to figure out how these two are related but somewhere in the blood they are. I see the resemblence.
So who are they you ask. Jamison and Bradley.
Bradley is Carolynn and Bruce P.'s FIRST Great-Grandson.
He is such a honey and we were so excited to meet him when we were there for thanksgiving.

Sledding with daddy....

Our princess...

Tis is Christmas morning and McKenna did not dress in this in the morning, SHE WENT TO SLEEP IN IT. Since we spent the week and Jaedon's house she has been begging for a princess dress, so Grandma and Papa H. got her one complete with the crown and shoes. She is so thrilled. Needless to say i wasn't too thrilled this morning when she woke up in it covered in puke. So yes we have the flu bug but it goes fast so hopefully it will run it's course in the next couple days through the house and be done.

Corey's Christmas Panukukua

note: Corey also got a new shaver from santa and it tore up his neck... so he's not tired he's just in pain.

What a wonderful cook.

I must admit when it comes to making breakfast its Corey to call in our house.

Sending out a special thank you...

THANK YOU THANK YOU
The girls were so thrilled about their new outfits and dolls from Grandma and Papa L.
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas out that way. Jamison's outfit fits him perfect too, but was in the wash.
Thanks again!
We love you.
XOXOXOXOXO Hugs and slobbers from your Yoopers.

Who wants MORE chocolate?

Isn't Christmas grand?

Jersi and McKenna are so facinated by Christmas, we had a tree, but it was only 4 feet tall so they were just thrilled to lay with mommy and look at all the lights. Jersi kept running around saying " SANTA, HO HO HO, PRESENTS??"

The story behind the crazy hair...

Miss Jersi went through a (short) stage...which to me seemed like a lifetime of pulling our her own hair. and when she finished that, this is what we ended up with. Corey named it the 80's rockstar look. Well in the end her hair is growing in quite thick and even, but am i glad my mom thought to capture a picture of this!
