Best seats in the house

So we had one of the coolest experiences tonight that I'm sure we'll ever have at the ballpark.  On our way up to our seats in the top section we were approached by Reds personnel and asked if we'd like to be upgraded to the best seats in the house.  Well, duh - YES!!!  We got to relax in the comfy recliners and wave to everyone from the scoreboard.  We got free hot dogs.  Gapper came to visit us. The kids were truly happy and had smiles from ear to ear all night long.  It was a great night, one we'll remember for a long time to come.

Grandparent's day

We sent this picture to our grandparents to wish them a happy grandparent's day.  Our kids are so blessed to have such wonderful grandparents in their lives.  Especially since they spoil them rotten!

Emily - 1st day of soccer season

This little cute patootie started playing fall soccer today.  She looks so cute with her little soccer socks and pigtails blowing in the breeze as she runs up and down the field.  Here's to a great season and lots of goals.

Joe Morgan weekend

What a fun game at the ballpark.  It was Joe Morgan weekend and the Big Red machine was there.  It was neat to see all of the great players out on the field.  The kids enjoyed their favorites - nachos and cotton candy.

Just because

It goes without saying that I have the best husband ever.   He has a romantic streak and got me these beautiful flowers, just because.  Kids - always remember to show your spouse that you love them!

Art station

We decided to surprise Emily with her very own place to get her craft on - her very own art station. She was so happy with it.  We can't wait to see what kind of creations she'll come up with!

K.I.

Another fun day at K.I.  And they are big enough to ride the treehouse ride by themselves, which Mom and Dad are super happy about!
