Happy Birthday Kayla

Kayla

It is hard to believe we are celebrating Kayla' 4th birthday on September 30th. It seems like we just celebrated her third (our first with her). She has grown so much and enriched our lives so completely. We are having a Curious George birthday party for her on Saturday with some friends and family, it should be a blast.

Kayla loves school, Curious George, books and crafts. She loves to do "wesseling" with Ben and squeals with delight when Gabe comes in the door! And what a trooper she was through all of the baseball we had this summer, definetly Ben's #1 fan.

Kayla, we can't even imagine our lives without you!

We love you so much Mommy, Daddy, Gabe and Ben!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

July 1, 2000

What a great day! Nine years and counting! He still gives me goose bumps!

A crazy first year, marriage-passing of Lee's dad, my mom-Ben arrives-all within the first 11 and 1/2 months. WOW! If that doesn't break you, what will?

Our life together is amazing and wonderful and only gets better. Who wouldn't be happy when your husband treats you like a princess all the time? Three great kids - Gabriel, Benjamin and Kayla only add to the joy. We are so blessed - it scares me sometimes. I wish everyone in the world, especially my children, are so blessed too.!

Lee, your the best!!

Oh, limited pictures as I'm usually the one behind the camera, most of these were probably taken by Ben.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN!

We have an 8 year old! Wow! Happy Birthday Ben!
We love you so much!! Love, Mom and Dad.

What a ride this child has given us. Ben is sweet, kind, caring,
a great little brother to Gabe and great big brother to Kayla.
He likes Suite Life, Drake and Josh, All 3 High School Musical movies and knows the words to most of the songs. He loves Rock Band and need I even say it BASEBALL, golf and fishing and pretty much watches any sports show dad does, which is most everything. He loves to cook and makes the best cheese omelets (even better than dad's) hands down. Life with Ben is not without challenges as he grows, but it is as it should be. Ben has truly blessed our life!

Summer Begins

WOW! What a busy couples of weeks. April 25th marked Gabe's milestone...graduating cum laude from Flagler College. A great party on May 9th attended by family and friends helped us to celebrate this wonderful occasion.


Additionally on the April 25th-26th weekend, Ben's travel ball team the Ocala Rotary Raptors won their first USSSA tournament in Altamonte Springs. The whole team did a great job and Ben batting average for the tournament was .875. Great Job!!

We were lucky to have Noonie up for another visit and it included Mother's Day. We had our annual picnic at the Municiple Golf Course for Symphony Under the Stars.

Ben and Kayla finish school this Friday, the 22nd so our busy summer schedule begins. Obviously more baseball and day camps for Ben. Kayla is having some swimming lessons and this is just in the first four weeks.

Summer is here!!!
Love to ALL!!
