Happy Anniversary to Dave & Brenda Schmidt.

There are some missing, I know there is - I just can't pull them from the depths of my memory.

Busy August

This year I'm so thankful that there are no school requirements in August. This has been a busy month which leads to time passing super fast. Here are some of the things we have been doing.
St. Louis Zoo, Noah's 3rd b-day and party, Noah's first bike ride and near nightly rides since then, Madi Phillips' 3rd and Ashyln Matthews' b-day parties, Photo booth event x 2, two funerals, and the Price Cutter Charity Championship golf tourney where Noah got a golf ball signed by Roger Tambellini (PGA golfer) and wants to be a golfer himself.

September will slow SOME and we are looking forward to football games & fall weather!!!

We hope everyone is doing well and we will be seeing many of you soon!

Happy Birthday Noah John!!!

On the eve of Noah's birthday we made a trip to the St. Louis zoo and had a great time. Our very own private viewing of the hippos (who we think were attracted to us by Hannah's screaming fit) was the highlight of the trip.

On Noah's birthday he was surrounded by his favorite friends at Chuck E. Cheese! He hid under the table when Chuck came out for the party stuff. We managed through it and still had a wonderful time! We hope everyone else did too and thanks for the great stuff.

All the cliches are true..... time passes in the blink of an eye, there is nothing more precious than a child, they grow like weeds, etc. I just can't believe my first born is 3 and before you know it the post will read: I just can't believe my first born is 5....16....18.....21.....30 - wow, it just doesn't seem right.

Noah on his first bike for his 3rd birthday. This bike was broken and exchanged for a new one. The 2nd bike had the same problem and now the poor kid has no bike. He has taken that fairly well, knowing that he gets to go to the bike shope, like dad, and get his very own!!

Stayin' COOL!!!

We broke down and got something other than a splash pool. Here are a couple pics from the first day of play! Noah still loves to wear his swim cap and goggles - Hannah has to do everything Big Brother does.
