He Can Flip. . .



. . .more than just cheeseburgers! Andrew and David trying out some parkour moves.



Andrew's Co-op

Andrew has chosen to do roofing for his co-op and summer job. We are very proud of all the hard work he does and his employer seems to really like him. However, seeing pictures like this puts fear in this mother's heart. . .that would be an AWFUL fall. His cousin took this picture without his mother or aunt being aware of his lofty heights. Does this have something to do with testostrone???

19 Years Ago. . .

The Birthday Girl. . . .




. . .turned 17! One of her favorite gift was the $100 gift card to the Conestoga Mall she got from her grandparents, parents, and aunt. Getting there shouldn't be a problem since she can now legally drive. Happy birthday, Hannah, we love you!

Welcome Home Party




The day after Hannah arrived home, we had a surprise "welcome home" party for her. She enjoyed seeing her friends again and all of her favorite foods she had missed while she was overseas. There were no fried eggs on anything and no fish!

Daniel in Action


Trying out some new tricks on the skateboard.



Enjoying the neighbor's trampoline. Since our summer season is short, we have to take advantage of ANY decent weather to use the trampoline!



My little boy is growing up! A few months from now he will be starting high school. Yikes! I feel OLD

Home at Last



Welcome home! We are so happy to have Hannah back from France. Here are some photos of Hannah when she was in Paris. Thank you so much to the Debout family for keeping her and showing her around France. While she is very happy to be home, she is already talking about living in France again after high school

Let the Show (Season) Begin






Some pictures of Leah's first show of the season. She has been able to get some part sponsorships from some local companies to help her cover the costs. Her and Blaze did very well and finished second over all. Today, they just did dressage and stadium jumping. The cross country course was too wet and muddy to ride. Great job you two!
