We spent the first part of Memorial Weekend in Kansas City celebrating the high school graduation of John's cousin Kelly (known by the kids as Cousin Kelly). We are so proud of all she has accomplished in her four years of high school. It's amazing that her long list of activities even fits on a college application. Kelly is headed off to KU in the fall. We were hoping for a Minnesota school, but she's staying true to the family alma mater!
Riding bicycles outside during the grad party. Like his sister, this boy is definitely happiest when he is riding his bike!
Silly PaPa Mac!
On the front step with Daddy!
Love that goofy smile!
My sweet girl seems more and more grown up by the day!
With Mama
Giving John a lecture. I love the way his brow furrow when he is upset or concentrating.
Happy on her bike too!
Kelly opening her fabulous graduation gifts.
Kelly, myself and John. We were giving Kelly's brother Dan a hard time about not having much playing time in her picture slideshow, so these next ones are for her wedding!!
Kelly and a very sleepy Reagan
Kelly and a silly Dylan
Reagan is VERY excited about starting Tball next week. I think this picture was inspired by the Tball and softball pictures Kelly had in her scrapbooks because she knew to strike the standard pose for Tball pictures.
After the sun set, we let the kids stay late in order to catch some of the early lightning bugs that were outside of John's aunt and uncles house. There were only 4 or 5 out there, but we were intent on catching at least one!
Reagan and Dylan with their lightning bug, Blaze!
Daddy was the main lightning bug hunter. We can't wait to go back later this summer when the lightning bugs are much thicker.
Giving her new friend some "furnishings" (grass) for his new home.
We love going to see John's relatives (John's mom's and dad's family) in Kansas City. It is so fun knowing that he gets to share some of his childhood memories of visiting with our own kids!
