It was a great evening hanging out with our Stars Family at the Drury Inn pool. The “Star-ettes” are always up for a picture.

The boys never left the pool.

We need to make sure we enjoy this weekend. We may not get another one this year.

It is time to measure the height of the kids again. John has grown over four inches in the last year and nearly 6 inches in about 16 months.

Laura has not grown nearly as much, but she has gotten taller.

I really love looking at these marks on their doors and I am so thankful that Andy thought to transfer the marks from our old house. Someday, our grandchildren will look at these marks and I bet they will compare their heights to their parents!
It was a tasty dinner from COMO Smoke and Fire to celebrate the kids’ birthdays!

A big HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY to the boy who made our family whole! John drives me nuts a lot, but life would not be the same without this video-game loving, baseball-playing, continually-growing boy. I hope your day is fun even though it is a small celebration this year!

Happy Golden Birthday, Laura! I cannot believe that I have had the privilege of being your Mom for 14 years now. You start Hickman High School in just over one month and, while I am so excited for all you will experience, I am sad that we are only four short years from college. Your Dad and I love you to the moon and back!

Be still, my organization-loving heart… Andy told me we needed some food storage in our basement, so I began slowly stocking up. Well, I could not find anything on the shelves, because there was so much food. There was also a lot of wasted space above the food on the tall shelves. So, I went in search of organizers on Amazon. This is the result, and I still have stackable wire baskets to arrive! Of course, I did realize that I had not stocked up on nearly as much food as I thought…
