it has been a really really really long time since i have posted on here because i rely on Facebook to share photos, but i thought i would do a little updating now :)

 Paige turning 8 and Jaydin turning 4

 Paige got her ears pierced for her 8th birthday

 The only proof that there was a moment that Raylan was this close to Uncle Matt and not crying or giving him a strange look as he passed him at a "safe" distance :)

 Raylan loves Coco

 Raylan loves to watch the geese and ducks (especially the babies) outside our complex

 Raylan's first Meijer horse ride ... worth the penny that someone so gracious left there

 "TWINS" :)

we went camping @ holland state park this weekend without Jaydin ... of course Zahn came out to visit with his new family.

PAIGE: "mom, take a picture of me like this so that people think that

i don't know which way to go."

On friday the waves were 5 - 8 feet .. we all got wet standing too close to the edge of the pier :)

ficano's pizza

downtown Holland - a huge zinnia plant.

Paige trying to learn to skate ... she needs more practice :)

Zahn and his new family, the Dresinga's came to visit us.. we had a blast :)

Paige and gavin (6)

john and zahn

i kinda forgot just how big he was :)

Tunnel park... April 2010 ... 80 degrees outside, water was 58 degrees.

we went to hagar park this march, it was 80 degrees!!

we blew a tire in Kentucky just 20 minutes past the last Discount Tire until we got home, lucky us is all i have to say :) so we got two new tires because we had replaced two when we got the van.

we went to Ruby falls on the way home from our trip to N. carolina. this is the view from the top of the Lookout tower.

we went behind the falls, it was pretty gusty.

they turned off the lights and did a little light show on the falls.

paige as indiana jones :)
