tortillas...

I work with the best people! We have so much fun together. My friend, Francie, made homemade tortillas with her class one afternoon and was kind enough to send home the extra and her tortilla press for my boys to try it. First I had to get a lesson at school so I knew what I was doing. It was really fun! I'm glad I know how to do this...


Thank you, Francie!

my y tri

Nels and my dad came down to celebrate Nels turning 27! Steve and Nels also did the My Y Tri at our YMCA. Their goal was to not stop or die, and they both met that goal! My dad and I took the boys to the mall for the Preschool Day so we had no part in the Tri.

matching shirts...

nice numbers...




We also had some birthday cake. I love this picture of Knuckles and his helpers!

We love you Knuckles!

Christie

My dear friend, Christie, was able to come and spend some time with us in Iowa. We had a great time! My highlight was spending the night in Des Moines at a hotel. It was so relaxing and fun to catch up and giggle! Steve (aka "Super Dad") stayed with the boys so we could get away. She is such a blessing to my family and I. She is preparing to move to Africa at the end of the month, and I am going to miss her like crazy.

We celebrated her birthday early, and Steve made a special brownie for her.

We love you Christie!
