Family Reunion

We went to a family reunion this past weekend in Iowa. Thank you to Uncle Larry for bringing all of these great toys to keep the kids busy so the adults could visit.
This blow-up water slide may have to be our next investment. The kids loved it!



Lake Rathbun

We camped at Lake Rathbun this past weekend and the girls had a lot of fun. Hannah and Meredith really enjoyed swimming and tubing behind the boat.

Meredith thought she needed to water all of the flowers (we won't tell her they are weeds).


Water Balloon Fight

This is what you resort to when your air conditioner has gone out and it is 85 degrees out.

Skating Party

Hey all you Nerinx Hall alums, do you remember our all-night skates?
I would not recommend a skating party for seven year olds, unless they have actually skated before at some time.

Slip and Slide

Did you even know that Slip and Slides were still around?
I forgot about all of the bruising that occurs.

Josh wasn't too thrilled about the condition of our grass once you removed the slide.

Summer Hits Kirksville

It was finally warm enough to visit the pool. This is one of the neighborhood park pools, which are nice when you don't have a lot of time to check into the city pool.



KBSA Softball

Hannah plays softball for the Kirksville summer league program. She really enjoys the sport and has come so far compared to last year.

Check out the homerun stance!


Looks just like Molina behind the plate. This is her favorite position to play.

Memorial Day BBQ

Meredith likes the idea of fishing, but has no patience unless a fish bites immediately.

Meredith refused to touch the worms.

Hannah is quite the angler!

Ted Drewes



You can't really visit St. Louis without going to Ted Drewes.
