April, Banzhafs & the 4th

I was thrilled to have April around for a bit in June! (We missed Nathan!)

Here we are visiting Mom's mom, Grandma Barbara.

Some of my cousins (Garcias) and their babies.

One of my students I've been teaching for 9 years did a senior recital while April was here to play piano for him. Here he is in his dress rehearsal. That was a special night.

We enjoyed a night with Ben & Britney while April was here.

Ben showed us where he works for now.

Hangin' out

 Aww, good to see them together!

We spent the lunch on the 4th at the Gilchist's house. For some reason I didn't take any pictures. We went over to my side for dinner at my Aunt Jane's house. Her yard is spectacular!!! Wish I'd gotten more pictures.

My dear, sweet cousin, Kathi, and her two boys, Hunter and Colton.

Family, family, family...it's good to have family!!!!

Early Summer

I'm way behind in posting, but I still have pictures to prove that we lived 

through June and almost all of July.  :-)

Enjoying a picnic at the beginning of the summer.

Little soccer, hand stands, & resting

 Happy tummy = happy Danny

Getting "airplane" from Uncle Pete

Danny was fascinated and scared of this sculpture. 

He kept touching it like he expected it to start moving at anytime.

Special times with Grandma

 The graduate!!
