Ma Ma's Birthday Dinner

Ma Ma with her grandkids and great grandkids.

Ma Ma came to visit from Main for a couple weeks and she was here for her birthday so the family got together to clebrate. We had Jack's cousins and their kids, and his Mom and sisters. It was so nice to see all that could come.

Jack being attacked by all the kids and Kate and Julie with Jasmin. The kids thought they looked like the sister Power Rangers so they posed for their celebrity shot!

4th of July Fun!

We kinda had a Pierce family reunion for the 4th of July and it was a blast! I had family from around here, Washington, and Idaho all go camping for the weekend. It was hot and dusty, but nice to see family and just relax.

We decided to go for a ride on the 4-wheelers, so we all grabbed a little girl and took off. Kaylie and Ellie both fell asleep during the ride which made driving interesting for my Dad and I, but Abbie stayed awake with Jack...they were going quite a bit faster than us so it was probably a little harder for her to fall asleep.




Here is Bert on his motorcyle and me with Ellie. Below we have Jack and Abbie and Kalie bugs dirty little face...she loved the dirt and rocks!

More of the House

Here are more pictures of the inside of the house...I didn't get all the rooms, but you can get a better idea of what our new place looks like.

This is the master bedroom, and yes that is a shotgun next to Jack's side of the bed! Our homesecurity as he likes to call it.

This is the upstairs living room.

This is our cute little kitchen that actually has counter space...unlike our apartment had.

This is our family room downstairs. We have not done a lot to decorate down here yet but it is nice and cool down there so we love it!

The house has 4 bedrooms, 3 baths (one unfinished), a huge larundry room, a storage room, and a huge yard that we love.

Weekend with the Meegan's

Jack and I got to spend time with Pat, Clarissa, Gracie and Alli-cat this weekend. We had a wonderful dinner and entertainment. We will miss them so much when they move!

Little Grace performed her first violin concert for us...she has a promising future!

Jack is reading a nighttime story to little Grace.

Alli-Cat, Grace and Jack making a mess in the girls room and loving every second of it...what a GREAT uncle!

Baby Charlies Room!

My sister Nikki is in Texas and wants to see the babies room after I painted and got furniture in it so I thought I would just post it for all to see. The room use to be a horrible yellow with dark red curtains that made you feel like you were in a cave...everytime I went in there I felt like it was closing in on me. The room is a lot brighter now!

House photos

Well here are some pictures of our beautiful flowers that are somehow surviving in this heat...unlike our grass.

This is a picture of the front of our house. I have had a few requests for house pictures so here is at least the front of it. I will straighten up the house a little more and post some pictures of the inside soon.

Thank you everyone!

It was my birthday last Sunday and this is the wonderful glider chair that Jack got me for my birthday. I love it and apparently he thinks it's his new reading chair. I want to say thanks to everyone who thought of me and called, sent cards, gifts, or sang beautiful songs to me! It was such a wonderful birthday! Jack also made sure that I was fully aware of the fact that I am now 26 which is the downward spiral to 30...so I reminded him he is not far behind!
Oh, and speaking of birthdays, today is my Dad's...HAPPY BIRTHDAY Dad we LOVE you!
