Adelynn's first birthday

We enjoyed a very nice day at Sharon and Rich Kleinstick's (Jacinda's parents' place) for cake and good times for Addy's first birthday party. Many relatives were there as they have been there the past several days for Becca and Justin's MN wedding reception. So a good time was had by all. We'll have another party for Adelynn after mtg on Wed. night along with 6 or 7 other Sept birthdays we're celebrating. December(s) must have been cold months to produce so many people!!

Cool car from grandma and grandpa Kleinstick that Addy took to right away.

Addy - July 2009

They don't make 'em any cuter than this, says this grandma.....of course, I'm a little partial to her. This was taken by uncle Lane at around 10 months.

Dog time at nanny's

Lazy time on the sofa. Guess who the king is here? PJ has the pillow so that must say something.

Dog Time

While the kids are away, the dogs will play. Have enjoyed having Chloe join PJ at our place for about ten days. They've had a good time together.

pool time at the water park

The kids did remarkably well. Don't think it could've gone any better. Guess this will have to be an annual affair!!

Anna, Chad, Lane and Alesha had a nice time watching the surfers at the water park.













The kids did try their knack at surfing later.....found it kind of tricky. Did body boarding the following day.
Me and Alesha hanging out in the kiddy pool area. Axel and Addy had a blast there.
