Back in February we went to Marshall, Minnesota to see our nephew Jordan. He goes to school @ SWMSU & works there as an athletic trainer.  It was great to be able to spend time with him. The kids just love him!!

In March I chaperoned Sydney's band trip to Branson, MO.  They performed On Stage Live in Branson as an opener for the actual show. They did a great job. While in Branson the kids rode on go-karts, little scooters, posed with people from the shows and ate alot!!!

Within a month of each other Jake got braces and contacts.  Between the two he looks different than what we are used to.

Syd now has her permit and will take driver's ed this summer. This is a picture of her driving home from getting her permit.  Pray for us......PLEASE!!!

Here is a picture of the kids from Easter:

Sydney marched in the Tulip Time Parade in Pella, IA:

Jaden was one of the flower girls in Rodney & Alena Ingle's wedding and really enjoyed being a part of their special day.  Her cousin Samantha Ford (right) did her hair.

These pictures were taken on Mother's Day.  We were lucky enough to spend some time with Grandma Mildred, Dad and Troy's family. Jake & Niki went fishing.

Here are some pictures of our Track & Field Day here in Sully.  Its a big day for the kids, they love it!
