Getting Started

Hello Everyone! This is a new blog for our family so below are some pics over the last few years for an update of what it is we have all been doing. More current pictures are to come in the near future. Hope you all enjoy our blog.

This is David & I when he graduated from Cincinatti University in 2008. He actually graduated on the weekend of our first anniversary.  We got to take the kids with us so they all got to see him.

This is April & I on David & I's wedding day 12/13/2007.  Some people find it hard to believe that we got married in jeans & t-shirts.  We wanted the wedding to be simple. We wanted to get married the way we feel comfortable, and we are just jeans & t-shirts people. So that's the way we went. Notice that April & David both have their eyes shut in these pictures.  For David that's typical....lol

This is the 3 kids when we all went to the Outer Banks in 2008.

April in the Elizabethan Gardens on Roanoke Island in the OBX 2008.

Tyler at the beach house we rented at the OBX 2008.  The pineapple has something to do with the show Psych that we watch on USA.

Emilie on the beach for the first time ever in the OBX 2008. We met Emilie in 2007.  Her & April met in the 7th grade they have been best friends since the beginning.  From the first time she spent the night with us she was an unoffical member of the family. This past March 2010 her mother signed papers giving us full custody of her making her an offical family member. We love her as if she was one of our own from the beginning.

David, Tyler, & I went to an Indians game.  The boys right before the fireworks started.

These are our 2 cats: Angel (on the left) and Louie (on the right).

April before her winter homecoming dance last year (2009).

These are just a few of our pictures since we became a family in 2007.  I will be uploading more current photos soon.  The kids school pictures just came in & we will be getting family pictures soon as well.
