Hooray for Aunts and Uncs!

Where exactly my head was towards the end of March... who knows! I missed "blogging" two special birthdays - Uncle Clay (my brother) and Aunt Sharon (Bobby's Sis). This absolutely does not mean they are any less important - this just means I am more forgetful! So with that... Happy BEEEEEEEEEElated Birthday Uncle Clay and Aunt Sharon!!!
Uncle Clay - March 30


Aunt Sharon - March 31

Who is also a new grandma to Ave' Solis!!!
We love you both!!!

School Days and Birthdays!

We've had lots to celebrate lately!!! First, my sister-in-law, Jennifer, celebrated her birthday August 10 (just after graduating with her masters)! Happy Birthday, Jen!!!




(Tacky Sweater Christmas 2007!)

Then on August 20, G (Dad) celebrated a b-day! He thought we were not celebrating this year, but we surprised him with a game night at cousin Stef's house with Scott and baby Sofia. Despite me writing out the cake description -they still spelled it wrong and got the flames wrong, but the cake turned out cute and gave us all a good laugh with a couple of old (I mean "distinguished") pics of G!



Wow - that's a lot of smoke from those candles!



Last, but certainly not least, Carrine is no longer a teenager as of August 28!!! Happy Birthday, Carrine! Vegas 2009! Woo hoo!



Drew started school this past week. He is really loving it...


...And, still keeping us laughing daily. Here he decided he was a farmer and going to work on the farm. The funny part is that the overalls are 18m overalls. They still fit him, except in length, obviously!



Clara started high school - I know! HIGH SCHOOL! It freaks me out, but she is a smart, funny girl, and I know she will do great. She's on the dance team, so look for dance pics soon!

Catching Up

Just a quick post, as I am on a roll today steadily marking "To Do's" off of my list!

Drew's swimming now - self-taught, so we are still going to put him in lessons to learn some technique and safety! Kenna is saying more words - she says LISHA, which is hilarious... hi, outside, Clara (which is more like LaLa), and she learned the sign for MORE which is always in reference to food!!! Catching up on pics....

A couple of weekends ago, the kids and I visited with my nieces Kathleen and Shirley and their kids Charlie and Samuel on our trip to visit Mema and Papa (Bobby was in CHINA - I will let him post on his trip later). The kids had a great time and my in-laws were kind enough to let me sneak off to Austin for a couple of days for a girl's night out and time with my brother, Eric, and sis-n-law Jen.

Speaking of... congrats Jen, who is graduating this weekend with her MASTERS!!! Go, Girl!

We welcomed KENNA PAIGE to our family! She has been an overwhelming delight with her infectious smile and sweet little charm.
