Welcome To The World Ava

Our first Grandbaby was born Saturday morning June 11, 2011 at 7:45 AM. Her name is Ava Nicole and she came into the world weighing only 5 pounds 9 ounces and was 18 1/2 inches long. Yep she is a beautiful little peanut but very healthy despite her small size! She was supposed to be born June 14th (tomorrow by induction) but decided Friday afternoon that it was time to come into the world. We are so very excited to be grandparents and I'm sure she won't be spoiled at all! She is a very precious little girl and we couldn't be happier for Cole & Ashley. Oh and the fact that they only live a few blocks from us makes it even sweeter. I think they might just get sick of seeing Grandma in no time! I hope not though because I certainly don't plan on staying away. Welcome to the world little precious and beautiful Ava Nicole. We love you and are so happy to finally meet and hold you! Now be a good sleeper for Mom & Dad!

Hope she got to come home today! More pics this weekend - but more 'formal' ones. You come with them too if you can!

Ty Football 2010

So finally remembered to take the camera to Ty's game Friday night and snap some pictures. We won 45-0 and Ty had 3 TD's but one was called back. I don't know what his class will think when/if they ever lose. They haven't lost a game since grade school. Wouldn't that be awesome if they never did lose one? I think our varsity team will be a force to be reckoned with when they are juniors and seniors. Not saying that the varsity team currently isn't. They haven't lost this year either. Love football season but sad to see summer almost over! Go Wapsie Valley Warriors!

Happy Birthday Hildegard

Today is my sister in law Helen's birthday. I love this gal. We have been friends for a very long time, and we truly have a blast with each other. Thank goodness we can spend a lot of time together because we spend literally EVERY weekend together April through October at the river on our houseboats. We do crazy stuff, we cook awesome food, and we just hang out and talk. And in the off months or when we don't see each other, my car just seems to turn down her road when I am heading home from shopping. Even when Bruce has just waxed it and done the wheels. Right Helen? Oh well he washed it again quick when I got home. He knew I had to have my fix of "Hellie"! I love you Helen Hildegard like a sister and I know that we are having an awesome day moving and winterizing our boats for the season on your birthday! May we have many more river summers to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries with our friends and family. Oh, and this winter when you are having th...

Most Of Us

Okay I just had to post this picture even though I did post it with all the college move in slideshow pictures. This is the emotional morning that we left to move Kyle into his dorm. I think this is a really good picture of all of us except obviously Cole is missing. But he always tries too hard and "sometimes" messes up pictures, so I think it is safe to say this is a pretty good picture of Bruce and I with 2 of 3 favorite children in the world! See.....I said you are ALL FAVORITE CHILDREN!!!!!!! Just wait until there are grandchildren.....none of you will make the blog very often!
