Visiting with The Wortmans

Jason, Jen & Brenden were in town visiting for about a week and a half from North Carolina. Brenden is 5 now. Kodie & his friend Alex spent the night with them at his Grandparents house 2 weekends ago. Last Sunday we all went over to visit for a little bit. Here are a bunch of pictures.

Another week gone by

Again, we have taken lots of pictures but don't have time to post them. Here's another week or so's worth of pictures. Also, in my haste, I forgot to mention we had 3 birthdays the past month. Sidney turned 3 on May 19th, Jamie turned 28 on May 29th & Kodie turned 13 on June 1st.

Averi in shorts.

Macy's soccer game.

Jamie's friend Becky is getting married next month.

Averi & Mommy got dressed up for her bridal shower.

Averi's first dress. What a doll.

Kodie got 2 awards this year at school. One for all A's and one for running track.

Here he is with his friends Alex,

and Jon.

Catching Up, May 15 thru June 4.

So obviously we have been busy (and lazy) the past 3 weeks. Kodie had another hockey tournament, my brother Jamie graduated with his BBA from Northwood, Averi had her first play date with Grant, the three of us (no Averi) went to our first Tigers game of the year, Memorial day, Patti came back to Michigan for the summer, and so much more. Here are the last 3 weeks, clift notes style.

Jamie thought it would be cute to dress Averi up like flashdance.

My little brother Jamie is the first member of my family to graduate from college.

I have never been more proud of him. Graduation was in Midland. Kodie and I had to

drive straight from there to Canton for a hockey game at 8:45.

Just some cute pics of Averi on the boppy pillow,

and in the bath.

Jamie's went to visit her Grandma Iles. Here she is holding Averi.

More tummy time.

Jamie, Kodie, Averi & I walked 3 miles at Cascades last week.

It was one of the "2009 Walk Jackson" events.

Stephanie and Drew brought Grant over last week to play with Averi.

Jamie, Kodie & I went to see the Tigers play the Rockie's Saturday, May 23rd.

We asked the usher to take our picture for us and this is what we got. Hilarious Huh?

We went to Kodie's Grandma & Grandpa Wortmans Sunday, May 24th.

This is Kodie's cousin Kayla holding Averi.

Jamie, Kaiden, & my Mom came over for dinner on Monday, May 25th.

Friday, May 22nd on my way home from work I found this little shihtzu walking down Cunningham Rd. We kept him at the house over the 3 day weekend until we could find his home on Tuesday. Sidney was happy to have a friend all weekend.
