Simply-Victorious

In case you are wondering, I have skipped blogging for the months of Jan-May. I am hoping to go back and catch up on those too, but I was trying to get some more current stuff on here. Just about every week my to-do list contains blogging, but I guess there just aren't enough hours in the day for me to get everything done on my list. Now that the girls are back in school and all 3 of them are in school now, we will see if I can get this up to date. While we were home this summer for a couple of weeks. We took a day and just our family went to Chicago. Of course the first stop we had to make was at the American Girl store since the girls had been saving their money for the last several months so they could get a doll. What a good dad....willing to take his girls to their favorite store. Marissa with her doll Ivy.... After lunch we took a carriage ride around downtown Chicago and out on Lake Shore Drive, it was beautiful!! We happened to go to Chicago on our Anniversary. Can&

Jeremy preached at Dyer United Methodist on Father's Day this year. This is where we served when we were first married. It was like a family reunion so good to see everyone! After church we were able to go out to lunch with both of our to celebrate Father's Day! After lunch the guys were all able to enjoy a round of golf! I took this picture of me and the girls since we were all matching with our black and white outfits!

Jeremy sitting and visiting with his Grandma..... One night it was actually cool enough to have a camp fire, my kids were cold and asking if I packed a pair of pants for them. Don't think we will be having any camp fires until possibly November around here. Cousins sleepover.....those are always fun!!!! On our way home we were able to stop in Indy and see my best friend Vicki. We have been best friends since high school. It was quite a sunny morning, I think we were all facing the sun which is why most of us aren't looking or have our eyes closed. So good to see them!!! Hanging out waiting for the fireworks to begin! When these two get along it is very sweet!!! My mom really wanted to take a family picture of us all, not sure if we got the best shot, but we tried! We had lots of fun at home with our families!
