Excuses, Excuses, Excuses...
Okay, here it is:
I am pregnant and feeling crummy (nonetheless hiding it for 12 wks)
We moved from Maricopa to Gilbert
My brother got Married
Parker started Kindergarten
Both my kids had b-days
Kirk started ASU's MBA program
So yes, I was busy and tired and I bailed on the blog!
A QUICK RECAP OF SUMMER WILL HAVE TO SUFFICE
TUKEE GIRLS
All my BFF's (except Bethany, we missed you) from H.S. together again - hasn't been pulled off in years. We were in the hot tub till early morning, lots of great laughs and stories. Oh what a night!BACK TO SCHOOL
Parker started 1/2 day Kindergarten! Notice the "classy" outfit - when your child's b-day is on the first day of school how can you say no to their favorite spiderman shirt. Picture day, however, mom is taking back dictatorship.
Parker's new obsession: Dinosaurs
Gracie finally got some new dolls, barbies, etc that are not filthy, naked or broken. Fingers crossed she will take better care of her new toy collection.
Zuchinni, tomatoes, bell peppers, cantaloupe and watermelon. I like to think I might have a green thumb??
BIRTHDAY TIME
Sadly, this is probably the last year I can get away trying to celebrate the kids birthdays together. Parker turned 5 and Gracie 3. No babies in our house anymore.

OUR FIRST GARDEN
One of the best experiences we had this summer was having a garden plot at a farm. We spent Saturdays seeding, weeding and picking fruit all summer.

Kris and I playing around before a serious white-knuckled tube run with the boys.
Grandpa and Gracie rockin their shades
It is bitter because we will never put in as much energy, time or personal manpower to any other home. I found a love for decorating and Kirk learned he was pretty handy. We will always have a little bit of pride in our first big labor of love.
Parker stole the spotlight everyday with his big ski run. I noticed that I didn't end up getting one pic of Kirk or I wakeboarding, this was so much better. This is the part of parenting that I love!
Taken just moments before we were ravaged by a storm in the middle of the channel. It was crazy, there were several boats that sank that day. All part of the adventure, right?

FAREWELL TO COPA

The sweet part is that we love being in Gilbert. It is perfect for us right now.
We really miss all our great friends in Maricopa and are happy to be close enough to come around and visit!

Congratulations!!! I am so excited for you and Kirk. What a crazy summer, but lots of good things going your way. Miss you and your family tons!
Doesn't life just seem to get crazier and crazier?! I'm just glad that we FINALLY live close to each other to share the craziness!
What you are preggers?? Congrats to you! Oh wow Gracie is seriously the cutest little girl. I remember her just as a little baby and she is not anymore. Crazy how time flies! Can't wait to see you! We thought Nellos at 6:30 on Friday. Does that work for you? Congrats again. Can't wait to her all about the pregnancy.
I am so in the dark...Congrats! We need to hit Sonic to celebrate. This calls for your own order of poppers!
P.S. fantastic taste with the children's first day of school wear. Reece sported the same!
