The Cake

My sister, Renee, and my mom did such an awesome job with the cakes and cupcakes that I had to put them on their own post. They looked good and they tasted awesome too. My mom decorated cupcakes too that looked too pretty to eat - some looked like they should be jewelry instead of food they were so pretty :-)

Birthday Party

It has been so busy here with the upcoming move, figuring out all the paperwork, and work - that Brenna's and Mikayla's birthday party really snuck up on me. How did this happen that Mikayla is 3 and Brenna is nearly 2??? Where did the time go? I hope everyone had a good time at the zoo and at Pizza Hut - here are a few pictures of the fun :-)

I love that all the kids are such camera "hams" :-)

Holly Hobby???

Is that Brenna or Holly Hobby in there???

Brenna is not in love with bugs...

This is the "happy" face when you talk about bugs to Brenna :-)

Pulling weeds, and
telling the dog what to do... where is that dog...

Our family

As my sister pointed out to me - we did not yet have a picture of all of us - so here is the best one that we took

Other members of our family

Thought I would share recent pics of the two other members of our family from my photography class.

Our potential apartment in Germany

Learning how to add pics

Brenna is one cool kid

The Beginning

Today starts a new chapter in our lives. Dustin and I have decided to accept the transfer to Germany. The change for us and our families will be huge, but we feel the benefits will be worth it for our time with our daughter. Hopefully, I will be able to learn how to utilize this website and keep everyone up to date on our daily happenings...
