Some summer pics

On the way home from MI, we stopped in St Louis at the Arch. Kaden and Collin were listening for the trams that go up inside the arch.



Figuring this out



OK, I think I may have this figured out. I have been playing around with things for over an hour.
Anyways, I will start by telling about our summer so far. We left for Michigan at the end of June and had 2 weeks there visiting and playing and just hanging out. A good time was had by all. Grandma Gini came back here with us and spent 3 weeks here and just left Tuesday to head back home. We enjoyed our time with her, but I know she didn't exactly enjoy the summer heat here!
Last Friday, we had to let go of our family dog, Keta, whom we got 4 weeks after we got married over 11 years ago. She was 11 1/2 years old and was in heart failure. It was a VERY hard thing to do and we will never forget her. She was a great dog. Some people questioned when we got her why we were getting a rottweiler due to their reputations, but we never second guessed our decision and never regretted it. She will be missed.




Our Family updates

Hi all. I have decided to set up a blog for our family updates now that we are living so far away from everyone. I had been kind of updating things on Kadens Carepage, but they changed their format and I REALLY don't like it, plus, that page is supposed to be about him and his health situations. So, welcome!! I am going to try and update this blog at least once a week so everyone knows what is going on with us! I am able to post updates and pics and really like the pages that so many of our friends have set up for their family updates so I decided to do one too.
