Exciting times...

Here are some snapshots from our life the past several weeks...

Casey's parents came up from California to surprise him in his classroom this past Monday... he felt very loved, and it was wonderful to get some time with them. Thanks Steph and Pops for making the journey!


Casey and I gave my dad a certificate for a foot rub at Foot Reflexology for his birthday this past May. Sunday night he turned in the certificate for the rub, and let's just say that he looked more sore afterwards than he did before. Apparently their "foot" rub includes a head, shoulder, arm, and leg massage as well and a deep tissue approach is utilized... violently pulling limbs and metatarsals to relieve the joints, literally punching the muscles to relax them, etc... I felt so guilty for buying him an abuse session for his birthday.... Sorry again, daddy. I'm glad that you've recovered.

Lindsey's middle brother Jon Jon graduated from IHS this month!!! Congratulations to you Jon Jon, and don't worry... I totally forgive you for becoming a cougar. :)

A few days at the beach... thank you Kettering family for loaning us your beautiful cabin! We felt very blessed...

This was for Casey.... (it means I love you)
