It has been brought to my attention that I failed to mention that along with all of the others that came to see Kaylin at the talent show, Tali and her OTHER best friend Stephanie also came AND brought us all some yummy donuts! So very sorry about my memory lapse!!!!
P.S. Happy Birthday Tali! :)

School Talent Show

Kaylin played the piano for the school talent show this year. I don't think I was ever brave enough to do something like that, so I am very impressed! She played a song that she wrote all by herself that was untitled at the time (she has worked on the song since then with her piano teacher and added a little more, and has named it Tami's Song after my friend Tami who ALL of my girls adore!)





Hailey and Lindsey were very excited to see Kaylin up on stage!




Tami brought her family to watch the great performance as well. Somehow, only the girls were lucky enough to be photographed!
Scotts parents made the 2 hour drive so that they could also be there and watch Kayllin. What a great fan club she has!!!







Hailey Preschool Graduation

Still trying to catch up on the old blog! Here are a few pictures from Hailey's Preschool Graduation. She LOVES her teacher Mrs Goodrich! What a difference preschool made for Hailey! She is not quite so scared of everything anymore! She made a few good friends and was even bravde enough to stand up and do her part. Night and day from when she started! Thanks Mrs. Goodrich!

Check out my little brother



I have been enjoying going to the state track meet for the 1A division for the last few years to watch my brothers dominate everyone in the hurdles. Taylor was the state champion all 4 years of his HS career and had the state meet record. Dillon entered the picture at the end of this career and let Taylor finish HS with a great record, but has since taken over. This past year he has beaten Taylor's record and the family still holds the state title. Dillon won both hurle events, took 2nd in the triple jump and placed in the high jump....3rd or 4th place maybe...can't really remember anymore! My brothers are awesome! :)

Hailey's Birthday Party

I do realize that this happened over 2 months ago, but I never posted anything from Hailey's birthday parties, a make up/hair party with her friends and a good old-fashioned family bday party.

Spring Sports


Kaylin and her cousin Sophie were on the same soccer team this last spring and Hailey decided to try her hand at t-ball. There are definately more t-ball pictures because they got to play at the Peoria Sports Complex for their last game and Hailey thought she was big stuff. Lindsey also decided to pose for a few pictures after the game. I loved the one where she is "stealing" a base!

Zoo Trip

So I am going to be posting some random events from the past few months in order to catch up on some of the fun things we have been doing.

A few months ago we took a trip to the zoo with my friend Tami and her kids, my friend Tali, and a couple of Kaylin's friends. We had tons of fun. The tiger put on a nice show for us by climbing up and down the tree...I captured most of it on my camera.
