Alivia loves eating apples.. or as she calls them bapples

Steph and I took a trip to Michigan in April to see Les and the rest of the family. Les is being deployed to Iraq in June and we wanted to see him before he leaves... so, it was the perfect oppertunity for a long weekend. We had a great time relaxing and just hanging out with the family.

I had the privilege to watch our good friend's daughter, Charlotte.. she and Alivia are only a day apart, although Alivia was supposed to be 6 weeks younger. They played the afternoon away. It was a lot of fun!

First picture of the graduate, walking out! We are SO proud of him! He worked so hard for 2 long years in school while also maintaining family and work life. It sure was hard on us but we made it. I can't tell you how excited and proud we are of him for this accomplishment.
