Pictures from AK

I'm 7 months old!!!

Luke and cousin Ben. Luke was naked but decided he wanted to wear the vest he found in Marmar's room. This is Halloween Night and around 11pm Ben decided he needed Mary to run home with him so Luke decided he needed to go too. It was really cute watching Ben getting Luke's coat on him and taking him on a walk that late.

Luke and Uncle Ike, Halloween Night watching Star Wars!

Luke and Megan dressed up for Halloween. Luke is Luke Skywalker and Megan is a bumblebee. Luke wouldn't actually dress up, but he would carry around his light saber and he drew on his face.

Marina and Hannah hanging out. Marina was feeding Hannah her fingers.

Luke and Megan in "The Fort". It was awesome!

Luke and Megan even let Marina join them. (Doesn't Megan look super grown up in this picture?!)

Luke was eating his snack on the floor and Tansy decided to join him and help clean up any mess!

Aww, Aunt Marmar and Hannah.

Yaya and Luke reading stories with Luke's horse on Yaya's shoulder.

Yaya and Hannah time!

Reading stories with Aunt Christine.

"Hi everyone, were having a snack!!"

Luke, Stasia, Matthew and our Goddaughter Megan!!

Story Time

Were just missing Matthew's finger stuck in his face somewhere. :)

Hannah with Christine and little Marina.

Cute smiles!!!

Luke had all of his little animals s

Hannah stole my sausage and loved it. She ate almost half a patty before I finally took it away from her. Yum Yum!

We had a wonderful time in Alaska. Unfortunately Luke had two ear infections and Pneumonia before we left and Hannah and I each got two ear infections and I got Bronchitic and Hannah got Pneumonia also. But all in all we had a wonderful trip.
I was able to get my Grandpa Stanly's new Kitchen and Bathroom (cabinets, shower, sinks, tile, carpet, etc) totally picked out and ordered, putting $12,000 on my credit card, which of course I was reimbursed for. YEAH for half a ticket worth of miles.
My family was of course thrilled to have us there and the kids were totally spoiled. Luke went to preschool with my mom almost every day and played with all the kids there. I spent most of my time working, looking through magazines to get ideas and walking around Home Depot, Lowes and SBS. If anyone out there is getting ready to do some remodeling or building I totally recommend Lowes over every where else. I had the best luck there. Everyone was really nice and help full and there was always someone to help. We had horrible luck at Home Depot with the people being rude and unhelpful and not enough staff. The staff for the kitchen area are way over there heads in work and they need a ton more help. So I just quit going there and stuck with Lowes and was very pleased.

Matthew is recovering very well from his knee surgery. He has had two phisical therapy sessions which have greatly improved his walking and the exersises that he has had to do. Matthew has not taken any Vikaden sincce 7am this morning. This is the first day since the surgery that he has been able to go without and he has done really well. We have great hopes that he will recover quickley and will be back to normal an no time!!
