Heading to Indiana


Grammy and Madelyn decided to head to Indiana earlier than Papa and I. Madelyn had such a good time last summer with Grammy she convinced her that they should travel together, so we rearranged our plans to appease Little Miss...as always. ;)


Grammy and Madelyn were there for five days before we got there and they had lots of fun, mostly helping Auntie Kim prepare things for Mac’s graduation party and senior recital. There was a lot to do so Madelyn decided she should make a list so no one would forget anything.


She also labelled Auntie Kim’s desserts so no one would be confused.


Grammy and Madelyn worked on other projects, too, in between helping prep for graduation. Some crafts, and some writing and coloring…


Papa and I soon got there, too. It was fun travelling together. We hardly get to do that anymore so the time was definitely treasured.


We were excited that my Aunt Kathy got to spend some time with us while we were there, too. Madelyn thinks she’s pretty cool. They both like sparkly jewelry and the color pink! They had some fun with “selfies” in the car:


The weather was beautiful, so we spent a lot of our time outside enjoying everyone's company.

Bella Update

Bella has grown so much since we brought her home in December. Take a peek at some pictures from the last few months...

 Clearly too big for this bed...

Student of the Quarter

Once again, Madelyn has earned the Student of the Quarter award. I am so proud of her! She is such a great kid and a great student, too.

What a great way to round out the year!

Happy Anniversary, Grammy & Papa!


We were so very excited to celebrate Grammy & Papa's 50TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY! What an accomplishment! They have been such great role models for all their girls, and we couldn't be prouder of them.

Their pastor did a special blessing at mass:


And then we headed to Ah-So for a special dinner...
