Our Kindergartener

Rachel's first day of Kindergarten. She's doing so good in school. We are proud of her.



A few days after school started Rachel decided on a hair cut.

50 Miler

Mike and Cole on their 50 miler hiking campout. Cole is doing so well with scouts and Mike volunteers to camp with the scouts as much as he can. They have a lot of fun together.

Gettin' So Big

Carver is changing so much. He is super smart and so much fun. He is very happy and entertains us all. Things going on with him: He got his new Sceleral Shell (like a great big hard contact) for one of his eyes (the one with the detach retina--not growing as fast as the other) this will help with symmetry and proper bone growth. His better eye is stable--meaning he is not losing sight there. We are very happy about this. His new diagnosis is FEVR Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy. So bad news with the new diagnosis is that his condition could get worse as he grows older and it is genetic. Even though he is the first in our family to have it--he could pass it on :( But we will worry about that when we get there. We are going to start Braille with his letters and Preschool this fall. We are so blessed that Carver is happy and healthy.

Rachel and Kate's Recitals -- Both the Same Night

The Girls Ballet and Gymnastics Debut

It was a long night!

This is my excuse for not blogging for a while. Valentines Day Mike and I went skiing on a date. And this was the outcome for me. Very romantic. :) It should be healed all the way soon. Just in time for summer. Can't wait!

We Have a Teenager! Are we that old?

Cole turned 13 January 2nd. Lucky for us we see no signs of any negative stereotype like teenager qualities from Cole. He is an amazingly good kid--I mean young man.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

A Wonderful Christmas Eve

Steve and Michelle have come home from Florida and all the Adams kids and grandkids Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Royce were together for Christmas Eve this year.

Grandma read the night before Christmas.

Grandpa read Luke 2.

Uncle Royce gave each grandchild a beautiful animal fleece blanket. They all loved them!
