Look at that fish!

Daven's first fish!!! Opa would be so proud going fishing with Daven!! ...some day :)

I made it through Friday!

Well, it is 9:43 p.m. and I'm tired like never before! I feel like I have had the longest week ever- not a bad week -but long! We had something going on every morning, ever afternoon and every night! On top of that I had my party for starting my new business! I'm so excited and I really think I can do this! I was so nervous all week because I thought nobody will come,what if no one is interested,...!! Then I kept telling myself that my friends will be there and that is all that matters and I made it to Friday night! The party started off great and people started showing up- and my friends! For my friends who could not be there, I love you and I know you were thinking of me and you would have been there if you wouldn't be so far away!
To my friends that made that night so special- thank you! Thank you for bringing food and drinks and helping me out so I could spend time with my kids on Daven's field trip in the morning! YOU GUYS MADE ME FEEL SO SPECIAL! :)

Storms and Tornadoes!

We're still here! Lots of thunderstorms late last night but fortunately we haven't had any tornadoes near Leavenworth. Last night we were in a Tornado watch and everyone woke up to some loud thunder this morning but so far, its all been rain and noisy thunder. We're looking at a solid week of rain and storms...not a good forecast!

We had a great "Cinco De Mayo" party with all our great neighbors yesterday that went until about 11PM! We'll try and get some pictures out today. Daven's school had a trip down a farm in Kansas City. Julia took Tim and Katie. Everyone had a blast being around the animals, feeding goats and riding horses. Daven caught his first two fish EVER!!! He must get his fishing skills from the German side of the family!

Also, Julia had her Premier Jewelry Welcome Party on Friday night. For those of you "not in the know", Julia is no longer selling Mary Kay cosmetics. She's started working for Premier Jewelry and had a great first show! No comments on her "Mentor" but if I won't name names, I must not have anything nice to say! I'm real proud of Julia and she really enjoys this business better than the MK. It was also great to see the support Julia received from her friends here on Post. She has a GREAT group of friends, by far the best group we've had in the nearly two years we've been here.

OK, the kids are screaming for food! We'll post pics and videos later! As for now, we are tornado free!
