So I have finally updated my blog with everything that's been going on for the last 5 months. There are a lot of posts to follow but bear with me. I will try to be better.

Tonsils

Kenli got her tonsils out 2 weeks ago and is finally starting to feel better. This was her before picture and as you can tell, she was really happy to be there. She thought it was so awesome that she got this turtle. She was really brave and did a great job.

After her tonsils she was not nearly as happy. I felt so bad and was pretty much helpless. She was so cute though. She just kept trying to share all her stuff with the nurses. She even shared one of her popsicles with her post-op nurse.

Halloween 2010

We had a great time at Grandma Miller's for Halloween. Thanks Grandma for all the fun.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

We took a trip in October to Pennsylvania to see Darin and Janey. We had been planning it for three months and was able to keep it a secret from Darin. Janey picked us up at the airport and when we got to the house Darin's response was priceless. He had absolutely no idea we were coming. We enjoyed the week together and got to see some fun things. We took the kids to the Children's Museum, Schramm Farm, Swimming, and rode the Gateway Clipper. Thanks guys for such a great time. We had a blast and can't wait to see you again.

This was all of us waiting to board the Gateway Clipper. We road the ferry for a tour around the outside of the City of Pittsburgh. It was really cold but so worth it!

The view from the Ferry was amazing. We circled the city of Pittsburgh and were able to see Heinz field and all of the beautiful, old bridges.

These two missed each other so much and had a blast playing together. They totally act like brother and sister though.

We took the kids to Schramm Farm to pick pumpkins. It was really cute and they had a great time.

This is us at the Children's Museum in Pittsburgh. The kids had so much fun. Kenli asks me all the time when we are going back.

We went to this huge, beautiful park where there was this enormous slide. The kids thought it was so much fun. The best part was watching these random adults try the slide. We stayed at the bottom to catch the kids because it was pretty steep. However, the adults didn't have anyone to catch them and it was pretty hilarious to see them fly off the end of the slide to the ground.

Justin had a very fast deer hunt this year. He left at about 6am and was back by about 1pm. Nonetheless he returned with a decent buck. Good job babe!

1st Day of Preschool

Kenli's has been dying to go to school and it finally came. She loves it.

Great Grandpa

My Grandpa came to visit my parents and it has been a long time since we last saw him. My kids absolutely loved him. Kenli wouldn't leave his side for about three days. Grandpa is a man of very little words, so after a few hours of Kenli talking his ear off, I think he really needed a break. He was great though and just let her follow him around.

ZOO

We took the kids to the Zoo for Kenli's birthday. They absolutely loved it, but it was extremely hot. Next time we will for sure go on a cooler day.

So I guess this will come as no surprise to those of you who know his daddy. Yes, he absolutely loves working on the trucks with his dad....and what else besides a FORD!
