Trip to Peoria

We traveled to Peoria, IL to help Justin and Melodie move to a new apartment. On the way, we went through our old hometown, Indianapolis and of course I had to take a picture of the new Colts Stadium. Yes, we are avid fans after living there for 10 years. Yes, we miss the city but we also miss the Colt's games. One day, we will return for a game in this great new stadium.

The Dunbar's, Melodie's parents also came to help move all the way from Tulsa. Both sets of parents to move you? Mmmmmm.

Here we are twice. We didn't have anyone to take all of us, so Jordan and I traded out. He said he would photoshop me in, but I gave up waiting.

As many of you know, Linda, Melodie's Mom is an artist. She painted this on their new baby crib and I had to take pictures of it. Also, the furniture below, they found at garage sales in Tulsa, painted them white, and Linda again did her thing.

Prom 2009

Lauren and date, Mark

These are all friends and part of the Senior tag team. They have teams that shoot each other with water guns to get the other team out almost like a paint gun game. They can get out anytime of the day. All are seniors and the winning team receives money. It is a tradition for seniors and there is a lot of strategy and planning to win.

This is Priya with us. She is a great friend of Lauren and also on her track team.

The Great American Ball Park

This was my Mother's Day present. To be with my kids and yes I love to go to the Red's baseball games. The only downer, was that Justin and Melodie couldn't be with us. For those of you who don't where the ballpark is, it's right off the Ohio river. It's amazing to see past the stands and see the Ohio. When Melissa rowed for University of Cincinnati, she rowed past the stadium all the time.

The Big Red Machine

It's a HOMERUN!

The Red's dugout.

It's the singing of "take me out to the ballgame." during the 7th inning stretch.

The Delta Queen went by the ballpark.

There's always someone trying to make money just outside the ballpark and these guys were really good hitting these plastic buckets.

This bridge was modeled after the Brooklyn bridge but of course much smaller. It's just outside of the ballpark.

The many faces of the youngest on Mother's Day.

All I wanted to do was take a good picture of these 2 and they played with me, so I'm getting even and posting their pictures.

Another record broken

Jordan thought a picture of the actual shot put was necessary. It weighs 8 pounds. The guys weighs 12.

Getting ready to warm up for her throws.

Getting instruction from the coach. According to Coach Weidner, she doesn't listen. Mmmm. Is she that way at home as well? She definitely beats to her own drum.

The new record is 34 feet 1 3/4 inches.

Spring football game at NGU

We traveled to see Jordan for Spring football a couple of weeks ago. It was very hot but they looked great.

Easter weekend

I'm just now posting the rest of Easter weekend with the Henson's and Justin and Melodie

This is Micah with Jordan. Two handsome guys.

Eating those Easter bunnys

Eating Easter dinner together even though it was Kentucky Fried Chicken.
