A Few Miscellaneous Things of Our Summer...

This is Tanner and our favorite cousin Morgan playing in the hole in Nana's trampoline! The hole is a long story, so we won't go there! Anyway, they are two of my three favorite kids in the world! When Ali has her baby in November, my kids will finally have 2 cousins! Yay for them!
So a few weeks ago, I turned... well, lets just say old(er). Fortunately I only have 2 more years of aging! Then I get to stay in a youthful state right? I know, I know, that isn't how it works! Whatever~ So then a few weeks later, Cory and I had our 5 year anniversary! WOW! That went by quick! So here is a little moment from that day!

Oh so long ago! And so many (okay, 2) kiddos ago! We got married on Friday the 13th! Loved it! Anyway, the kids have been sick almost every other week this summer and we have been trying to keep up with family and friends in between! We went boating with Ali and Brad last week, and Tanner LOVED tubbing, if you know that kid, that won't surprise you! But this little video is Tanner break dancing. My brother Andy taught him these sweet moves, he does it over and over and over if you ask him too. The kid is hillarious! I like how Morgan is just staring at him, this happens a lot. I am pretty sure she thinks he is nuts half of the time!

Oh, I thought I should mention Kate,

I love her too after all! She was helping me cook! She is getting huge, it is going by so much faster with her than it did with Tanner! She is almost 7 months already! Oh my baby girl!

Well, have a good one!

Family Pictures

Not much to say, but here are some newly taken family pictures. Kids are hard to take pictures of (especially ours I think), but we think we got some great shots.

Family Reunion

We went to a family reunion this past weekend- just up at Heise- we had a great time, it is always fun to see family! We don't see most of them except for this reunion, so we like to go!

We pretty much just ate, swam, and sat around the fire! Can't complain about that!

The boys built rockets and rocket launchers and were nice enough to help Tanner build one too! And then he spent the rest of the time begging to launch them over and over again!



Kate enjoyed having so many people being willing to hold her! She loves attention! But hey, she is so cute I really don't think anyone minded!

This is Shaneece, Tanner, Preston, LaNette, Kate, and Grandpa Simper (I am not sure where everyone else was!)

Kate ended up sick, so she was in heaven because we let her eat popsicles, since she wouldn't eat anything else!

We had a great time and it was fun to see everyone, so until next year Simper family!
