A Blast From the Past.

The First Picture of the five of us. I found this as I was freeing up room on my hard drive. This is a truly precious memory for me. FYI we are still here. We are still kicking. My kids are back in school and I am hoping things will get back on a schedule- including my blogging!
Love to all! Aimeee

We had a great sunset this night. I just kept shooting and shooting and it was amazing how the sky kept changing. I will add the rest of the pictures some how. They are really amazing. Here are some cool silhouettes of some amazing kids. I love these guys. It is neat what a kid will do for their crazy mom. Just another example of why I love to live where I live....

Hill Aerospace Museum
We had a great fieldtrip. It was a rainy spring day so it worked great to have a inside trip.
There are alot of neat airplanes, even jets and huge transport planes outside. A great history of Avation. We looked and thought about how tough it would have been to fight the two world wars. There is a Atom bomb shell and a new (since we were last there) learning center with Many different kinds of flight simulators. I was very impressed. In the hall between the two huge hangers is the UT Avation Hall of fame. There is a tribute to my grandpa there and it was neat to see it. He would have been very pleased to know his contributions were acknowledged.

I am way behind... starting to ketchup.
A promise for the future!

Famous in a Small Town

Last week, Amberly's soccer team participated in a camp hosted by our local Professional Soccer Club. Real. The newspaper took this picture of the girls and put it on the front page of their sports section. They had a great time. Amberly is in the center in the pink. They took 2ND in the Premier Division, at the District level this season. Winning is fun. Go Sharks!

Wednesday

we had our field trip day. We had a lot of fun. I took my camera to entertain myself. We enjoyed

the art gallery, the train museum, the car museum and the browning gun museum. We also loved the trains outside that we could climb on and look inside. Fun pictures that I had a blast cropping and editing. So enjoy my amature photos. I do because they are of my most precious. We have set aside Wednesdays for our field trips. So look forward to more exciting adventures.

Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a Good day for remembering. I am so grateful for the men and women in our military and I am thoughtful everyday of those who are fighting for us. My next door neighbor returned from Afghanistan last week and we are happy to see him home. With Memorial Day as an excuse, we ventured out to visit the grave of those we knew and loved. A quote on a head stone I read said something like, those that we love are never lost, we can always love them. That rings true to me. Mike and I have lost a lot of elderly family in the 12 years we have been married, and others not so elderly. The number between our two families is something around 10. Our lives have been blessed to know and interact and love those who came before us. They are not forgotten. We snapped a few pictures of the headstones, why not. I do not have a picture of the head stone of Mike's Grandma Grose. But included is both sets of my grandparents, Mikes paternal grandparents, and my Dad who died in '04. Do not think I am morbid. I knew and loved these people, They loved and cared for me and my family. I have never met more wonderful people and and I am glad for their peace.
