Swim Lessons

Today was the last day of swimming lessons. Since we moved here we have continued up the ranks with Lenexa Parks & Rec. Here are just some cute pics of this mornings last class. Haylie passed Level 3 and there are just 3 technical items Savannah has to pass off in Level 5 so we'll try again next year!

Kansas Storms

As you all know, I love the weather in Kansas. I like not having to drive through months and months of snow and I really love the rainstorms we get. When we get rain - its not woosie rain. Its big, its hard, its loud, and there is lots of thunder & lightning. We've had our share of wet this spring. These are a couple of pics from our backyard of the storm clouds we had a few days ago.

Marvin

I am a cat person. My husband is a dog person. My two girls wanted a dog. I caved. This is Marvin. He is now 12 weeks old. He is a Zuchon which is a hybrid mix of Shih Tzu/Bichon Frise.

LORD HELP ME GET THRU THIS POTTY TRAINING!!!
