For those of you that know Lyle, he has always loved dragons and swords. So while we were in ABQ, Keri's neighbor was having a garage sale of mainly swords...fancy swords. Imagine a kid in a candy store and that's Lyle with these. Anyway...we decided that he could buy some for his birthday that's coming up (don't worry you haven't missed it-it's on the 29th).
Here's the craft I was working on that was suppose to be simple but turned into a frustrating one...thanks to Erin, we saved it...the only problem now is that it's so hot here in phoenix that it's melting the hot glue...so I haven't hung it yet.
It was so much fun to see all the family. Here are some pictures from it...
So much fun! I have another picture of this but it's with Belky passed out and Dave said she would kill me if I posted it so this one is just as cute and explains the reunion at the end. :) We really enjoyed having all the kids there and really enjoyed having their parents not want to be around their kids so us without could enjoy.
Lyle and I have been married for five and a half years.
Lyle has been a manager with Gro-Well Brands since April 2006 and also has a side business with his uncle doing everything from flooring to roofing to construction. His talents are endless! He is also such a wonderful father, spending anytime he can playing with Audrey.
I am a stay-at-home-super-mommy and love the time I get to rediscover life along side my beautiful daughter as she discovers it.
Audrey Elise (after 26hrs of labor) joined our family on 5/5/2010. She was such an easy, sweet baby and then turned one and discovered how to have an attitude and how to scowl and get her way. She loves Curious George, music and dancing (to ANYTHING). She also likes to make us think she doesn't know what we're saying but she knows and is very smart! She never lets us forget who the boss is.
Our beautiful, 3 year old chocolate lab, Jazmine, is also very smart! She will fetch the ball and hit it with her nose so it goes farther and act like she can't catch it when really she can. We are constantly getting complements on how beautiful she is. We love having her in our family!
The Lord has blessed us and continues to do so!
