Daddy

This guy is "Daddy" to these three.  We love all he does for us and all the fun times we have together.  A fantastic father indeed!

June Fete 2014

We went to the June Fete this year with Jean, Tom, and Keira.  Colton and Keira had so much fun on the mini roller coaster rides. It was fun watching Colton come around the bend smiling from ear to ear screaming, "THIS IS AWESOME!" We then played a few games and went out to dinner.

RAINN 'Em In

Our team: Kelli, me, our horse (Fight on State), Kristen, Steph and Hunter

My sorority sisters: Marlena, Kelli, me, Jen (on our horse), Kristen, and Steph
On Sunday 6/1 a few of my sorority sisters and I participated in a human-powered inflatable horse race in support of a very serious cause — the fight against sexual violence. All proceeds from RAINN 'Em In, support RAINN, the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network. My sorority sister, Jennifer Shipe, founded the event in 2012. After living in silence about her own rape for more than 15 years, she decided to break that silence three years ago.  We couldn't be prouder for her success in creating this event and raising $90,000 to date.  My sisters and I hopped around bases in a relay style and our old bodies are feeling it today. If you want to contribute to a great cause and support a friend, please do: http://www.rainnemin.org/lancaster/

2nd Generation Friends

My sorority sisters: Devon, Katie, me, Kelli, and Kim

Our kids (left to right): Molly, Cora, Sophia holding Carys, Colton, Liam, AJ holding Emmerson, and Will holding Claire
Kim and her family were visiting Philly so we made it a point to get together.  We went to Valley Forge Park and enjoyed a morning together with our families. We flew kites, played ball, picnicked, and talked as much as we could while tending to our now 10 kids.

Madly in love with this little guy.  Every day he brings a smile to our faces. He is so full of life - loves to play, loves his dinosaurs, won't let us cut his hair, enjoys a superhero here and there, enjoys being chased and winning (sometimes we don't even know there is a competition until he screams, "I win!"), and this boy loves school.  Couldn't be a prouder parent.
