Happy 5th birthday to our beautiful princess Kaitlyn and handsome prince Colin! We love you so much and could not be more proud of both of you! They had a fun day! Stay tuned to see what their big present was from the entire family!!! Thanks to Auntie Kristina for coming over while mommy wasn't feeling too well and bringing a special treat of donuts for dessert for the kids!!!
Yum!!
The kids had a big surprise when Edible Arrangements came to deliver a yummy fruit cake from Aunt Shari, Uncle Jim, Nicole and Danielle. THANKS!!!
Our tradition is to go to Olive Garden for dinner on their birthday. Its their favorite place! The kids ate lots of yummy pasta and enjoyed opening some gifts from Grandma and Papa!


Thanks to our neighbors Tom and Beth for the trios! We brought them to dinner and the kids had fun building!!!

KC & Rachel's Wedding

This is probably my largest post ever...45 pics! But it was such an exciting occasion I have so many pics to share! We drove to Manhattan, Kansas 2 weeks ago for Cams brother KC's wedding. We were so excited to welcome Rachel into our family!! Despite Colin going to the treatment center for an ear infection and myself ending up in the emergency room we had a wonderful time!! Here are the 4 cousins at the rehearsal dinner. Ike, Everett and Colin were ring bearers and Kaitlyn was the flower girl:) Kaitlyn LOVED Auntie Rachel's red shoes!!!

Giving Auntie Rachel and Uncle KC a gift that Kaitlyn and Colin made especially for them!

They loved it! So much that they put it on the gift table at the reception and K & C were so excited to see their gift on display!!
Kaitlyn getting her hair done for the wedding!

My 2 favorite boys getting ready for the wedding!

This was too sweet! Kaitlyn was helping Colin fix his tux:)

How cute do they look?!?!

Ready to go!
Walking thru Kansas State campus to go take pictures.
Don't they look adorable?!?!
My favorite pic of the 6 cousins!!! They all look SO nice!! Kaitlyn is the only girl on both sides of the family but seems to hang pretty well with all of the boys:)

Poor Jay....Kaitlyn was trying to give him hugs and chasing him around during pictures:)

Craig, Jill, Reid and Jay....I love this pic:)


Showing their muscles:)


We had a lot of time to kill waiting for the wedding to start....the kids decided it would be a good idea to zig zag thru the isles to pass the time:)
Love this pic of K and her Papa!!!
2 important things before they walked down the isle...use the potty and refuel with snacks:)

And their off......


Colin was too cute during the ceremony. He started waving to me! I waved back thinking he wold stop but he just kept waving away:)
Congrats KC & Rachel!!!!
Cousins!!
Between Reid's new iphone and Jays Nintendo DS the kids were having fun playing:)
Grandma, Papa and their grand-twins:)
Great Grandma Boots!
Kaitlyn was a dancing machine along with Ike and Everett!!!

Jay, Reid and Colin were too cool to dance:)

Dancing with Grandma!I love how Kaitlyn is looking up at Auntie Rachel when they were dancing!!
The next morning.....Kaitlyn woke up with her hair still in place so we popped a bow in and she was good to go!
My little monkey's ready to pack up and head to the next hotel. We drove about a total of 24 hrs in 5 days. 3 hotels in 5 days. I have to say that Cam and I are so proud of how well Kaitlyn and Colin did! What a fun trip! Congrats again to KC and Rachel!!!!
