Visit with Ella and Evan

I talked to Joe last weekend and he told me the kids missed Kamdyn and me so we had to go out to visit them this week.  He had a blast with the dogs and the kids.  Of course, Evan wouldn't let me get any pics of him but Ella did let me get a few.  She even tried teaching Kam, with Mommy's help, "Ring around the Rosie". 

They are too cute and boy do they listen to their Mommy.  Erika is following in Joe's "bootcamp" training and already smacking Kams butt and telling him NO.  I tried smacking his hands and he laughs at me.  Bumpa will have a melt down if he gets into his TV equipment one more time.



Kam LOVES to give kisses and was making his move to get one from Ella. Of course, she was all for that.  Loves her little cousins.



Kam was all over the wood floors trying to get toys and the dogs, I told Stacy she needed to get him a mop head so he could earn his keep and clean the floors again for her.



Look at those smiles, to be so happy with no cares in the world.



Harley got in on a few pics with Kam also and Brutus was ALL for kissing Kam, who just laughed.

Aunt Jami and Kam love to wear hats and yes, that it is a sock monkey hat she has on.  Kam got to wear it later on that night.

Every kid needs to wear some shades.

Kiana and Alyvia Bday Party

We had Kiana and Alyvia's bday party earlier this month at Westgate and I finally had some time to post the pics. Mady spent the weekend with us SO they finally had a chance to see eachother. The kids had a blast bowling & so did Will and Jordan. The oldest and the youngest brothers are so competitive when it comes to bowling.

Dick Symonds Benefit

Will, Dee and Wayne decided to have a benefit on the 25th to raise money for St Rita's hospice in Dicks name.  Dick passed away in August after being diagnosed with stomach cancer.  Uncle Dick was a great man and always had a smile and a story to make you laugh.  We raised over $3000 at the benefit which was held on their 62nd wedding anniversary.  Norma had a great time and was overwhelmed with the crowd that showed up giving their support to a great cause.
Harmony and cornhole tournaments started the day plus the OSU game, the Izzy Stone Band entertained us into the night. I hope everyone had fun and thank you for the support.
