Happy 75th Birthday Dad! I love you soo much!!! Love Connie

Last weekend we went to the Octagon Barn in the thumb area of Michigan. We all had such a great time and the turnout was HUGE! We will definitely will be putting this on our list of tractor shows to attend next year! Thanks Mom and Dad for all the work you put in to make our visit the BEST! Love Ya!!!

Mom and Dad's beloved dog Scooter passed away peacefully on September 5, 2008. He will be greatly missed for all the love and protection he gave the family. RIP Scooter.

Even Aryana likes to play "Dress-up"! My neighbor gave me this dress for her and she looks so beautiful in it!!!

Today, I saw this amazing white caterpillar on my driveway and showed it to Collin. He was quite impressed by it! On our walk we found this empty body of a bug attached to a telephone pole. I guess it was our bug day today!!!

Heather, Aryana and I went to Open House at the Oakland County International Airport. We saw Jason and Kristina for just a few minutes and Collin was very excited to see us. The open house was fun and Aryana was able to charm herself onto a couple of small planes!!!

Collin and Nathan pose in the new outfits Aunt Heather got them!

Collin, Nathan and Aryana LOVE playing in the Dubble Bubble Bucket!

Today I put Aryana in the Dubble Bubble bucket and she literally stood up! I couldn't believe it. I told Heather she is going to walk before she crawls! She has absolutely no use for tummy time!!!

Doesn't Nathan look like a Pro!!!

Aryana just loves Grand-Auntie Debbie's green beans!!! She says, "They taste better than the ones in the little jars"!!! Thank you for the beans Debbie!!!

Also, Happy Birthday to you Debbie!!!

The kids had a lot of fun playing on Great-Grandma's garden kneeler. Her friend Susie got this for her at a garage sale and I put a little spray paint on it to spruce it up. This is what she really wanted for her birthday! And now that her leg is healed, she can finally get back to gardening!!!

Aryana updates her MySpace page!!!

The kids had fun playing in the toy bins outside! Aryana always seems to wave her hands around and she has so many expressions it is fun to put words in her mouth!!!

Cute pictures of the kids in the backyard!

I went over to Jason and Kristina's today and the boys showed me how they ride the rocking horse their mother got when she was 3 months old! Boy, they were a little rough! This little horse has been around for a long time - right Kristina!!!

We proudly present Heather's Five Generations Photo!!!

Happy 1/2 Birthday Aryana!

Look how adorable our little Jessa is! Her Mom bought her a belly dancing dress and she loves to play with all the buttons on it. You can just tell she feels so beautiful. I miss you Jessa Lou!!!
