Lola Learning to Ride on 2 Wheels

Lola wanted to try her bike without training wheels. We tried for a while before Daddy got home but Mommy's back was killing her from holding on and running up and down the sidewalk. So we tried again with Daddy's help. Soph decided to take pictures this attempt.

Here Daddy is explaining how its done.

Billericay Park

Sophie was so proud this summer. She finally got the "hang" of the monkey bars!

One of our many fun days at the park!

Shane's Soccer Game

Shane's team played several games up here in Noblesville. I was excited I finally got to see him play!

Most of these pictures were taken by the girls. They found the soccer game to be boring so I had to find something for them to do so I could watch Shane play.

Sophie wanted a picture of Cindy and I with the heart shaped leaf she gave us.

Beautiful Lola and the Beautiful Sky

Cindy's Birthday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CINDY!!!

Don't laugh at the cake....it was done quickly...we were hungry.

Sophie's Last Day of School

I realize I haven't updated in a while...this picture is from Sophie's last day of 1st Grade! She is wearing her 100 Club shirt for getting over 100 AR (reading) points.

Shane and Sam School Pictures

Shane just finished 7th grade.
I can't believe he will be in 8th grade next year - that makes me feel old.
He is an awesome soccer player and his team just went to State Finals. They lost to Carmel Academy but I still think SWISA blue and yellow is the best team ever!

This is Sam's 5th grade picture. I know, she looks too old in the picture to be a 5th grader. She will be a middle-schooler next year! How exciting! She is super sweet and my FAVORITE niece! My girls think she is so cool!

Sophie's Spring First Grade Picture

This is Sophie's Spring First Grade picture. I don't remember having school pictures twice a year when we were younger but I guess that's the thing to do now. She definitely looks older than when she started first grade.

ConGRADulations!

Our cousin Olivia just graduated from High School. She will be playing soccer for the University of Evansville next year! Go O!
