July 4th

So, these are going backwards...sorry...taken at the fireworks....Jared fell asleep during the show! He was so tired! But, he was excited to go and see a few before drifting off to sleep!

Portland Headlight

Pictures by the lighthouse! The kids had a blast in the freezing cold water!

More pictures of the kids

The kids had fun with their cousins this summer!

Summer fun

Here are some pictures from the summer...

Here are some pictures from Kenzie's birthday...yes I know this is a bit late, but we just down-loaded pictures from the summer...so here are a few. She is growing so big! She loves to play with her babies, read stories, play with her big brother, ride her bike and play with the trucks outside. She loves to eat lollipops and ice-pops now, along with fruit, cheese and muffins! She is truly a joy to have as a part of our family!

Happy Spring Time!

Horray! The snow has finally melted, green grass and flowers are growing, and school is ending! This past semester has been a never ending, research filled nightmare that has finally come to an end!!! It is so nice to have time with family and friends, once again, to enjoy the simple pleasures of life...like watching the kids play together, share finding treats together, and sharing hugs and kisses! They truly have kept us sane this semester! We are so excited to have so many family members coming to visit Maine this summer! The kids are so excited and counting down the days!! It will definately be a nice time to relax and enjoy watching the kids play and be together!

January 1, 2009

Wow! Hard to believe it is January already! Where did the year go? We are so happy to have survived 2008 with all of the challenges we faced. Jared is 4 years old and is still as active as ever! He loves to eat muffins, yoguart, and grapes. McKenzie is almost 18 months old. She loves to chase after Jared and play hide-n-seek. Both loved getting new bikes and can't wait for the snow to melt and play outside! Ryan is recovering from a broken finger still...no more Turkey Bowl football games for him!! Rachel survived another challenging semester, working on her research project...which is never ending!! We are excited to see what this new year brings!!! Happy New Year!!! RRJM
