Happy Birthday Benny! (Memorial Day Weekend)

We headed up to Ohio to celebrate our nephew Ben's sixth birthday.  Ben is the kindest, funniest, most polite kids.  He is the oldest grandchild in the family so he is extra special to all of us! 

Happy Birthday Ben!

I love cousins!  It is a neat relationship.  Even though they don't see each other often, they are best friends as soon as they get together!



Baby Andy and Uncle Adam



Ali is a very dedicated momma.  I could never have the patience (or the skill!) to create such awesome birthday cakes and cake pops!  I sat back and watched as she made these!

I love these little pirates!

Random Photos from May

Just a few random photos from May.  We were still living in Grammy and Pops' basement but we did sell our house this month so change was in sight! 

Emma was very into American Idol this season and usually preformed along with them!

Horseback riding.......someone was bound to get hurt!  At least it was a short fall!

El Paso Visit

A quick visit to El Paso to see family, Grandma and Grandpa Fever, and celebrate a high school graduation!  I only got a few pictures from our weekend, probably because I was chasing these two wild munchkins!

We also went to celebrate Hannah's graduation but I didn't get a picture of her at her party!  I guess I will just post one of her senior picture's instead!

Last Day of School

We celebrated Catherine's last day of school by going out to eat.  It was a nice day and we sat outside to eat.  Probably not because of the weather but because of the two children that were with us.  They are less noticeable when not in the center of a restaurant!

 Officially a Seventh Grader!

Eric's Graduation

We left the girls at home and headed up to Columbia to celebrate Eric's graduation from Mizzou!  It was a fun weekend with lots of good food, entertainment, and accomplishment!  He received his Master's in Accountancy and had also recently passed his CPA exam.  We were very proud of our sweet Eric.  He worked harder and was more dedicated to his education than anyone I know!

The Graduate and the Family

Me and My Accountant

I am sure Eric is somewhere down there.  He actually could have participated in 3 different graduation ceremonies but he was kind and only made us endure one!  (They are REALLY long!)

Eric and Erin

I love this last picture.  This is a pretty typical scene for these two.  Eric laughing about who knows what and Adam just giving a little smirk!

Mother's Day 2011

We had a low key Mother's Day spent relaxing at home and ended the day with ice cream. Here are some photos of the people I love.
