My favorite "niece" and Goddaughter 'J' turned ONE! Ok, so she actually turned one on October 4th...we're a little behind! I can't believe how much she's grown up in such a small amount of time. She's walking, 'talking', and she has the biggest mischievous grin! I love it. The girl has spunk. =)
Here's some pictures we took at 1 day old, 1.5 months old, 3 months old and 6 months old....then we'll get to the latest!
Now, for the ones you've been waiting for....drum roll please... J's ONE YEAR pictures! (and some of the cute family too!) Mark and Kayla planned a cute lady bug themed party for her (which I forgot to take my camera to...can you believe that?!?! ugh) so she got some pictures in her lady bug tutu outfit. She's adorable. Love her! Yes I do! =)

A few weeks ago I got to see a longtime friend of mine while he was back on leave (he's a former Marine who's in the Army now). We stopped by his homecoming/birthday party and it was mucho good to see him. It was especially cool because the Patriot Guard rode in to show their support and say a big thank you, a much deserved one at that.
Chris isn't just a brave soldier serving us - he's a good friend. We go way back. Back to the days of him scaring me with bumble bees, the days of ridiculous jokes at lunch, and the days of walking around as a couple of old farts in Lil' Abner. If I wasn't so lazy right now, I'd scan a picture from that show and post it. I'm certain you'd get a good laugh out of it. I could tell countless stories, but I'll spare you. =)
The other cool thing is that we got to photograph his family while he was back in town. He goes on another tour in Afghanistan this Spring so we're glad we got to get the gang together before then. Here's a few of the pictures:

There was another homecoming today...that of a fallen soldier...Sgt. Tyler Juden. The Patriot Guard escorted his body through town today. Flags were lowered half-staff, yellow ribbons were tied to poles along the street, and people lined up to welcome him home. I wasn't able to attend the processional but heard it was a quite the site and I'm glad it was. I'm glad so many people came out to honor someone who, unfortunately paid the ultimate price. For me, his death has served as a reminder not to take for granted those who protect our freedom everyday. So thank you Tyler, thank you Chris, and thank you every other soldier - past and present.
mommio:
I for one would love to hear the countless stories from two of my favorite "old farts."

Brooke, a friend I worked with in the shoe department at Dillard's (good times in the clubhouse, good times), contacted me a while back about taking pictures of her kiddos. Brooke is fun and energetic so no doubt her kids are too. We met up at Riverside Park in Wichita and we had a blast chasing the kids around - they had us cracking up the entire time. =) It was a super hot day so when the fountains came on later that morning we had to get some shots of them splashing around in that. Here's some of our favorites. I had a hard time narrowing it down because there were so many fun ones of the kids playing.
Brooke - thanks so much for inviting us to do pictures! We LOVED it and can't wait to do it again. It was really good seeing you - wish we could have had more time to chat! Seriously girls - we need to do Knolla's asap.
