Broden found my bike helmet and one of Jerry's gloves. Not sure where he thought he was going, but apparently he is ready for an adventure.

Erik had to borrow some cash to fix his car a while back. When he paid me back, he said he left the money on my desk. This is what I found. The note said, "I just love giving you all my money". I knew EXACTLY how he felt!

Those sweet fluffy cheeks. I just want to kiss him all the time.

We remembered cake...I just forgot candles! The lighter worked and he blew it out all by himself! We always include Broden in the birthday song, because a.) he likes it and b.) he gets embaressed and it is so cute. Happy 19th Birthday Boopsie!

Big Head Todd Concert! Fourth of July....raining and the kids just loved playing in it!

Chillin watching Doug light fireworks.

Kenzie's Birthday party. Jerry tried to take credit for all the presents her grandparents got her.

This is what happens when you tell Broden to say "cheese" for pictures!

Caesars Palace...our home away from home! We sooo love it here!!

The girls and I took our annual trip to Vegas! Had a blast laying around the pool all day and then going to shows every night. We floated around the pool at Caesars and planned Krista's wedding, and talked about how much we all missed Broden. It is possible that we also might have done quite a bit of shopping. Good times!

Erik's new car...wooohoo! He had to toast many a bagel to buy his new car. He bought an Audi A4. It is really nice...and Erik looks pretty good too.

Yea!! Grandpa Jack came for a visit. It was so great to see Grandpa and go to a Rockies game with him. It's tradition. He looks awesome and I just LOVED having my dad to snuggle on the couch and watch movies with. Dad you are the very best and I love you!!

Kimmie sent me this picture and I thought I would throw up! What is so funny is he just looks so happy to be there. His feet down the little hole and everything. I am glad she had the idea to take the picture.....it is just so gross!

Sooooo here is how this story goes.

We are out at the launch site and Kimmie decides to use the porta potty (we are an hour away from anything). As she turns to shut the toilet lid...my rental car keys fall inside the porta potty. Being the smart girl that she is ...she knew better than to tell me what happened, so she went to find the only person who would be willing to help her and not tell me.......Uncle Jim!

Uncle Jim who is just like McGyver got a wire and made a hook on one end to fish out the keys, and a hook on the other end for Kimmie to hang on to. Isnt he clever! :) After some apparent "fishing" around Kimmie was able to find the keys and retrieve them. Uncle Jim then sprayed them off with Acid, diet Coke, windex and anything else he could find so that they would be clean and I could touch them to turn on the rental car without throwing up.

There was no way in "you know what" that I would EVER touch those! Finally, Jerry found me a plastic glove so that we could drive home. Kimmie is banned from holding anything of mine again!

This is a picture of Kimmie, Uncle Jim. and Tracey in happier times....aka..pre-porta potty incident.

Soooo I stripped Broden down for his shower. I then went into the bathroom to start his bath water. Came back in to get him and found this! Hmmmm

Steven Tyler and Broden jammin on their harmonica's. Gotta get them started young...in their developing years!

Jenny and Scott were sealed in the temple. We are so excited for Jenny, she looked so beautiful with her Beauty and the Beast white cape. We all want one!

Kathleen, Lucy, Jana Rae, Jenny, and Tracey

Kimmie is 20! That seems crazy. She is working hard to take care of herself and Broden. She is such a good mommy, and we are all very proud of her. We love you Kimberly Ann!!!
