My Favorite Guys!



First off, my brother (another favorite!:) took all these pictures yesterday at Boston's Birthday party...so I can take no credit for how great they are! Especially Reshma's facial expression behind Gav's goofy grin! Ben sent me no pictures of Boston either...so he's missing...but certainly another of my fav's!:) Most of all I love the picture of Kevin and my Dad. I don't have enough pictures of them, usually it's all of the boys...this was a nice addition to our pictures-thank you Benny. And Happy Birthday to my little B! He is so grown up, I can't believe it. We had a BLAST at the party, thanks to a very pregnant Heather for putting it all together. I am blogging less, and much more busy these days....not sure if I am going to continue to do it. We'll have to wait and see.

A Weekend of Showers

It was baby extravaganza for me this weekend. My girls Heather and Shannon both had baby showers this weekend. It started with Heather's shower for Brunch Saturday am, which was such a blast and nicely done. It was at her aunts home in the Pearl which had a breathtaking view. It was lots of fun seeing Heather's friends and family...plus hanging with my Mom is always lots of fun. I met a girl their who said...are you Ben's sister? You look JUST like him. I think it was supposed to be a compliment...but my brother is a 3o year old man...and I don't want to be thinking that I look too much like him!:)
Today it was a day at Shan's cousin Kim's house...which was the home where Shan grew up. It was the first time I have been there since her Mom died. It brought up alot of emotions, but it was great to see it at the same time. I had a blast with Crystal ( Kyle's Mom...I completely LOVE this lady) and Traci...and our little prego Shan. She looks so cute!

The both have somewhere between 5-8 weeks left..and they both look stunning! Both babies have names which is super fun for me...cause now I can talk to THEM! Cooper Billups and Peyton Mae Laier.....Can't WAIT to cuddle you both!!!! Love your Aunt Ally/Auntie Al

Our newest addition!





We've spent about 5 days out on the river out of the last 10...and we fit it in WHENEVER we can! The boys are tubing, Kevin is kneeboarding, and I am driving! I have been on the tube, but something about being in deep water, having my face soaked with water isn't that appealing to me. Maybe it just has to grow on me? All in all, we've done great! We are going to Lake Merwin which is about 35 min from our house, and it is all backroads, covered in trees. So it is relaxing, and the boys have slept everytime on the way home. Anway...just wanted to share our latest hobby with you and let you know...any sun, and we are off work...I won't be blogging!:)
