Birthday Celebration






Moses already had his big birthday bash last Saturday due to his father's all important golf trip this weekend :-) We enjoyed celebrating with family and friends. A huge thank you to everyone who made Moses's big day special. We are truly blessed!

Happy Birthday, Moses!


Today, our little baby boy turned one. It is so odd to think that at this time a year ago we had a brand new baby. He has taught us a lot the past 12 months and we know that we will be learning more & more as he grows.



He isn't too concerned with walking, but will stand on his own quite a bit. We think he said his first word "ball" last week. He enjoys pretending to "talk" on the cell phone and "use" the tv remote controls. . . does that tell you a little bit about Aaron & me?

Final Four Weekend


Aaron and I started our Spring Break last Friday. On Saturday, our little family and Aaron's sister Dawn traveled to Indianapolis for the NCAA Men's Basketball Final Four. Aaron's Uncle Garry generously gave Aaron & Dawn two tickets for the final four games on Saturday (Butler vs. Michigan State & Duke vs. West Virginia) and the championship game on Monday (Butler vs. Duke). Moses and I went along for the ride. We enjoyed strolling the downtown area, a meal at the famous St. Elmo's Steakhouse, and a little bit of shopping. Oh yeah, and the games (I'll post about that later). The atmosphere around the whole city was so exciting.
Moses is enjoying Bracket Town above (a much bigger Experience March Madness at the Illinois State basketball tournament) and helping his Aunt Dawn on the computer below.


Having fun with dad at our hotel.

Even though we were away from home, Moses still had a chance to practice his walking.
