Catching Up...












A lot has happened since 2009. That Spring daddy and Papa re-tiled the bathroom and it ended up looking amazing! So crisp and clean! We didn't have room to upgrade to a giant tub or anything, but the three of us still fit in there just fine!

That Spring I graduated from CSULB with my B.S. in Nutrition/Dietetics. Whew! That was kind of hard with two kids and being pregnant for part of the time!Luke and Graham went on their first plane ride and it was to Alabama for family camp that summer. You both did amazing! We had a DVD player for you to watch movies Luke, but you just wanted to talk and ask questions about the plane. When we got to ALabama, Butde and Papa picked us up and drove us to Butde's home town in Mississippi and we stayed in their RV in a camping ground close by. We were going to sleep in a tent, but decided it was too hot and slept in the RV instead. We had a blast! Uncle Mike, Aunt Shauna, Mellie, and Mckenna were close by in the pop-up trailer. You both continued to grow and it was such a complete joy to watch your relationship develop. Luke always loved to help you Graham, and Graham always loved doing anything as long as Luke was right there too!






That winter we went to Butde and Papa's condo in Colorado and had some more fun, but in the snow this time.
We moved out of the condo in February 2010 and into our nice big three bedroom house. We have a yard now, our own laundry room, one story (no more escorting you boys up and down the stairs), and a quiet neighborhood. Ahhh...what more could a mom want? Living at our new house, we had a lot of redecorating to do and we have done it! Daddy scraped the ceilings in the three bedrooms and we painted all the rooms except the kitchen, hallway, and office. We had your cousins Andrea adn Mark over a few times because they started living with Nana and Papa Mark. You guys would have a wild time together!
Eventhough we had moved from your newly painted room at the condo, it didn't slow your imagination down one bit....you still loved to pretend that Luke's bed was a trash truck:


Graham you were maturing so incredibly fast! You LOVED the park




One day we watched Josiah Kong and Graham insisted in feeding him raisins...










In summer of 2010 Luke told Daddy and I that we should ask God for a little sister and on March 30th, 2011 your sister Faye Kaedra was born. So now with three little ones, Luke 4 1/2, Graham 2 1/2, and Faye 2 months we stay pretty busy around here.
