It's been a LONG time...

So, this summer has brought lots of ups and downs for our family. I just want to say how thankful I am for family-my husband, my daughter, my mom, my sister, my brothers, my sister-in-laws, brother-in-laws, nieces, nephews, mother-in-law, and father-in-law. I'm also so grateful for good friends. These are the things that matter most in life. I am so grateful for every moment I have with them. This life is too short to not take advantage of the time we have together.

The classic little girl picture...dressed up in mom's clothes (This was not prompted at all by me. I walked into the livingroom to find this...so sweet!).

Innocence.

My brother (#45) is a big star on his football team. Go Vikes!

As you can see, my brother has (HAD-he cut it and looks so handsome! He was the talk of the football team on the sidelines and at school) very long hair. I submitted a little blurp into the Rachel Ray Show about annoying long boy hair and we were runners up for being on the show. This is just one of the pictures we submitted.

We went camping with Rob's family in July up by Strawberry. Of course part of it was fishing! The boys fished and the girls enjoyed the ride-except Kaitlyn. She loves fishing too.
