Looking Back...

i actually posted this on June 20th....I felt it was worth another look...Sometimes when I am having a rough day-like today, I like to remind myself of the important stuff in life, the things that give me joy..Looking back on the way God has blessed me helps me to be more positive about whatever is bothering me in the now.....

Sometimes life is kind of crazy...
Today I was thinking about how only 2 years ago, if anyone had told me that I was going to have another baby, I would have laughed at them....
Having a baby was definitely NOT in the cards for us at all. Kendal and I had been married almost ten years, and raised three teen girls before we realized that maybe we did want another baby after all...and now, I can't imagine life without Jeremy! Even all the dirty diapers, and no-sleep nights are worth while..I would do it all over again if I had the choice to make..and not only do we have Jeremy, we are actually considering another one in a year or so!!!
Life sure throws us some curve balls!
Fortunately, once in a while...they are good ones!

Jeremy's first time in the lake....

The Buffalo Days Parade....

Here is Jeremy being stabbed by a pirate....

Here are some pictures we took of the Buffalo Day Parade....We had some cool moments, but overall we were pretty disappointed...Parades just aren't what they used to be....Mostly it is just advertising now, and barely anyone really puts a lot of effort into their floats. They also don't hand out candy anymore which they used to do....but I guess it kind of puts a damper on things when a kid gets run over by a horse....The weather was pretty nice this year though...

Bree wants to join the armed forces and become a pilot,
so she wanted her picture taken with this guy.....
