Good bye Dreako

After 13 years we had to say good bye to our wonderful old Dreako this month. 

Adrian and I got him right after we were married in October of 2000 and he has been such a big part of our family. He helped me though 8 deployments moved three times, and welcomed and put up with all three of our boys, He was loved by everyone who met him. We couldn't have asked for a sweater or more wonderful furry companion!

He will be truly missed!

Happy BIrthday Tavin

Happy 6th Birthday to our little Tavin!!

For his birthday all Tavin wanted to was to have his traditional birthday doughnut and to go to Chuck E Cheese for his party. I did good with getting his party reserved but on the morning of his birthday I had forgotten his doughnut so I ran to the store while he was getting dressed to get if for him! I think by the smiles he forgave me!

 We had Tavins party a week before his actual birthday so he got two cakes, He loves the minions on Despicable Me so I did my best to make a minion cake!

He got lots of presents and even more cards form friends and family who love him.

Happy Birthday to our favorite Tavin!

FIrst day of school

I cant believe how fast the summer has gone and now it is time for a new school year! Mclane will be in Third grade and his Teacher is Ms. Christopherson.  Tavin will be in First grade and have Mrs. Zakrajsek. We have heard great things about both teachers and met them on the back to school night, the boys are super excited for the new year!

  

Update; these are the boys school pictures taken in September. I have two of the most handsome boys at that school!

 The school does a spirit week and I just wanted to add the pictures of their wacky hair day!

AF reserve family fun day

This year the family fun day was a bit different Adrian got stuck doing some work things and so the boys and I wandered around and did the morning stuff with out him. Luckily he was done by the time we went over to the park to eat and do the fun carnival type stuff!
