Fun Weekend!!

We headed up to Arrowhead on Friday for a relaxing weekend with friends. Between us, we have 7 kids. Everybody had a great weekend. The kids really enjoyed having friends up there to play with

Baby JoJo

On July 13th my newest little niece was born. She weighed in at 6lbs 5oz. Josephine Grace is doing much better but gave us all a little scare. She got some fluid in her lungs and had to go to the NICU soon after birth. Little JoJo was in so much distress that it caused a hole in her lung. They had to insert a tube in there to take the fluid out and close the hole. I had a chance to visit her today but could not hold her just yet. She is getting stronger everyday and hopefully Gabe and Michelle are able to hold her tonight because as of this afternoon they removed the oxygen tube that was down her throat. We can't wait for little JoJo to come home and meet her family. The kids can't wait to see her! 



we love you baby Jo 

Happy Fourth Of July!!

We spent the fourth of July at my parents house. Since Gabe and Michelle could not join us in Hawaii we decided to celebrate all the June birthday kids also.
