Happy Birthday Heidi!

Cousin Time

RIP Remi

 Today our family was woke up with sad news...our dog, Remi, was hit by a car. Remi was a wonderful dog and great friend. Remi protected Kenzie and was very playful. Even though Remi lived such a short life 1 1/2 years, we had the opportunity to create memories with her. It all started with going to the city and Kenzie picking her out from the rest of the puppies. Heath got to take her hunting (she got hung up on a fence and tore her leg open), she had many swims in the pond, walks with Kenzie and I and recently mothered the 3 kittens.

We are all going to miss Remi greatly.

Happy Independence Day!

wheat photos

The combines are rolling so I wanted to get these photos before Papa's wheat got harvested. Kenzie is quite the girl. I love her so much!

I {Love} Summer!

 Kenzie loves the pool and the water. She is now going under and keeping her mouth shut. She loves jumping off the slide and going under.

our family

 We added 3 new members to our family a couple weeks ago! Kenzie has loved having these new friends. Last night she was carrying them around and really playing with them. Before she just wanted to pet them and watch them. She loves to watch them play on our deck.

 Kenzie and I participated in a graffiti 5K a couple weeks ago. Kenzie loved getting paint on her! This last weekend I went to KC with a couple ladies from work and we did The Color Run. It too was a lot of fun. We had a lot of color blasted on us!

Kenzie and I got to participate in a community block party. The excitement was having her face painted. Her daycare was doing this as a fundraiser and since I am on their board, I got to help with it too!

Kenzie: Besides playing with her kitties, she has started a new daycare, become potty trained, began playing more independently and for longer periods of time and talks a lot more! Her speech is clearer too.

Heath: His summer is based around softball and fishing which he seems to do a lot of!  The weather has been decent. We get a lot of rain at one time and then it dries up some before we get more. He told me that his potatoes were blooming in the garden and we have had radishes and lettuce so far.

Jen: I have been busy with work and running from events and meetings. This week I start classes. This will be different for me. Luckily it is just a 9 week program, but I haven't been to school for a while.

We'll be supporting my mom in the Relay for Life this weekend! Mom has been free of cancer now for 2 years! PTL
