My 41st Birthday

We made cupcakes, the girls made me gifts and Jeff took me to a nice dinner at Buona Vita.  During dinner I got a call that Jessie fell and knocked out her 2nd tooth riding her scooter.  We rushed home and she was happy to show us her new smile.  I wanted to kill that little bugga who wasn't wearing her helmet.  How many 5 year old's do you know who've managed to knock out both of their front teeth?  By the next morning I was over it and felt bad for her.  Even with her teeth missing that girl is so damn cute!

4th of July

A day filled with activities and fun... bike parade, chilli cook off, hula hoop contest, pie eating, face painting, balloon making, BBQ, John Brown Band, and fireworks.  All with friends, family and neighbors.








Raquel's Dance Camp

We came to see Raquel's performance on her last day of camp.  The girls then went to Aunt Cathy's to make up and perform their own dance for us.  So cute!



Last Days in Hawaii

7 days just isn't enough.  We all would like to stay another 7.  Our trip to Kauai was a memorable one.  We had a lot of family fun and adventure and look forward to visiting again.  Aloha!






Our Day in Hanalei Bay


Well, this was our favorite place on the island.  Next time we come back we'll stay on the North Shore.  Breathtaking!
