Going west!

A month ago we headed west on our yearly trek.  

Our first stop was to catch up with these sweet friends.  

Much too short....

Omaha to see Grandma Jean's new place...

Charlie's 10th

Charlie turned 10 last week.  

While he was pleased with his gifts, there isn't a whole 

lot of photo evidence...

We DID have a cake but we failed to 

blow out candles as he was as the Phillies game. 

So thankful for this guy and the blessing he is to our family!

My crazies:

May happenings

From Sports Awards:

  

Charlie finished memorizing the Children's Catechism and 

choose a shopping spree at Modells.

New sweatshirt, bat and socks.

Birthday at the Arboretum

Sunday the family humored me with a trip to one of my favorite places: the arboretum.

The pictures are always so lovely...with a hearty dose of goofy.

It was a lovely afternoon
