One long entry...

Alright, I have neglected this blog for so long! I took my trip to Kansas and had a marvelous time! Here are some highlights:

Jackson scored 3 baskets this game! It was so much fun to watch! Raegan and I had fun in the furniture store while Mom got a new loveseat and chair!I had a ball spending time with the Cryer family!
I finally got to meet my nephew Joshua and had the privilege to see his amazing jumping abilities! He was such a joy! I also had some sweet moments with Hannah and Hudson. They have such loving hearts! I don't know how many times I heard "I love you Aunt Meli!" It was precious! Yes, we had some funny times, too! What's more fun than taking a funny picture!?

It was such a blessing to have Adam and Becky in Kansas again! I got to be reacquainted with my little princesses! I love it! Toby is too active to pose for pictures!

Bathtime Buddies!

Bellybuttons are so much fun! I can't believe how big Cambria has gotten!

Dress-up is the best with a friend!

I took some of the nieces and nephews to see our puppy and her older brother! I think we all had fun, but Ally/Allie seemed a bit overwhelmed by all the attention! Gus loved it!




I got to spend time with Marc and Katy and see them perform in their youth group's dinner theatre!
I was even able to see my grandparents! They made a detour and came over for lunch.


Before I left, I had to do a very Aunt thing and get my nieces and nephews these giant lollypops! I didn't get a picture of the Cryer's with theirs, but rest assured, they did get them, too! I asked not to have the dental bill sent to me - besides they are baby teeth still, right? Well, except for Sydney and Jackson...!

What We've Been up to...


Yes, we have been mostly in puppy play times! It has been so much fun to play and work with Allie (I don't know how they are spelling it!) When the last of the puppies left us, we made a pen for her under the table. It worked well, and even now the dogs both enjoy the little "den."
In an effort to give Rowdy a break from the pup, we have allowed him to get up on Pat's chair. I think he likes it!
We are really loving the puppy phase again! She plays hard and then crashes in our laps! It is the sweetest. She likes to crawl into my lap, but when Pat's home, I encourage her to love on him too!
