Hi family and friends!  I just wanted to let you know I have been working on getting caught up to date with the blog so if you can give me another day or two I will have new post for you, FINALLY! :)  We love and miss you all!

Family Trip

Ryan with his sweet little girl, Syndi.

My older brother, Ryan, and his family came to visit, yay!  We had so much fun!  They stayed a week and it flew by soo fast!  Thank you for coming we enjoyed every minute with you guys!  Love you all lots! :)

The Girls: Alexis, Makelle and Kieley

The first two days we went to Illinois and stayed at an Indoor Waterpark, KeyLime Cove, it was a lot of fun!  The kids LoVeD it!  Side note: While we were in the Kiddie pool area my older brother asked me to look at this guy who was sitting in the lounge chairs behind us because people we freaking out saying they couldn't believe "he" was here.  So I walked around to get a better look at him I realized it was R. Kelly the R&B singer!  I was shocked.. I wanted to get a picture but I was too scared to ask.. still pretty cool I saw him up close and personal. :)

Jaden with his little sister :)

Mommy & her princess

Kieley's first time on the water slide.. she didn't know what to think about it. :)

The following day we went down to Chicago and stayed a couple nights in the city.  The kids LoVeD it! 

Ready to go walk the city.

The trip wouldn't be complete without the girls getting their first American Girls doll. :)

Uncle Ryan entertaining Kieley with "i got your nose" game..she thought it was so funny!

Kieley taking her afternoon nap.

Kieley loved following her cousin Alexis around.. we went to the top of the Hancock Tower and Kieley wouldn't let her out of her sight.

Princess Makelle got a princess crown at the Disney Store and she was so excited to wear her princess crown to bed.. what a pretty princess! 

We went to the Shedd Aquarium and Kieley was so happy to see her favorite "turtles".

After our fun weekend in the city we came back to go to a Brewers baseball game.  Thank you for the tickets Dad are seats were awesome!

On our way to the airport :(  We had so much fun with all you.. we miss you lots!

Very Proud

Aaron and I attended an award banquet at the Wisconsin Club in downtown Milwaukee honoring Aaron and 8 other classmates for becoming members of the Honor Dental Society, Omicron Kappa Upsilon. To become a member you have to have one of the top GPA in the dental class and be elected by one of the current members of OKU or faculty.  It was such an honor for Aaron and a highlight for me to watch Aaron be recognized for all he has achieved these passed 4 yrs at Dental School.  I am so proud of him! 

Aaron and his classmates.

Road Trip

Kansas City skyline

Aaron, Kieley and I took a little road trip to Kansas City, MO for Western Dental School boards.  It was a 9 1/2 hour drive with all our stops.  Kieley was amazing!  She never cried or complained once, but Aaron and I cried almost the whole way ..hehe "who knew"? I was Aaron's patient the second day of boards and had my mouth open from 9 a.m. until noon while he worked on my awesome cavity.  Every time he completed a process I had to go stand in line and get it checked by the "grading Dr's".  It was a long process.  If that doesn't say "I love you" I don't know what does. :)  My Mom flew in to watch Kieley during those hours and Kieley LOVED every minute with Grandma.  They had so much fun together it was cute!  I really loved Kansas City it was an awesome place and we had a lot of fun with Grandma.  The best news is we got Aaron's results this week and he passed!  Which I never doubted for one minute. :)  Great job honey!

A beautiful fountain near the "plaza" in Kansas City.

I really loved the entrance to this hotel.. the picture doesn't do it justice.

Grandma with little Miss Kieley admiring the singing man.  Kieley could have stayed there all night if we let her.. she loves to sing and dance. :)

Family Photo

Mommy and her little Princess. (No smiles were available that night :)

I really liked this fountain it reminded me of the one at Caesars Place in Vegas.

Kieley is starting to want to be more independent and Mommy is having a hard time letting her baby girl grow up..these pictures are the perfect example.  Mommy wants to feed her..below, Kieley wants to feed herself. :)  

My two beautiful girls. :)  This was before we dropped my Mom off at the airport.. Kieley cried for 5 mins until we distracted her with some dance music.  She loves her "Mamma"!

Somewhere between Kansas City and Iowa..I had to have a picture. :)

Going to Church

Kieley singing with her brush..not sure where she learned that??  So cute though :)

This little Princess is such a character.  These are a few pictures I took getting ready for church to show how funny she is.. she keeps us entertained everyday.

Walking down the hallway.. she HAD to bring her dog..hehe! :)

Talking to her dog in the elevator.. She is the best!

Cell phone pictures

Kieley with her monkey in the elevator.. she loves her stuffed animals!!

I had a couple cell phone pictures that I loved but couldn't figure out how to send them to my email but my genius little brother Darin helped me out. :)  

My sweet little girl with her bandage little hand :(  I still feel so bad.. This was her first time in her "big girl" car seat. ( a couple months back)
