I'm not an expert but it was GOOOOOOD





These are only 2 out of the 5 loaves we made...

For 4 Days we baked.....






We baked banana bread, pumpkin bread, we baked a cake, we baked cookies (those went fast) All the kids pitched in from cracking the eggs to measuring the oil and milk or whatever needed to go in. WOW...they all did fabulous

Floating down the River what a blast

We had so much fun floating down the river on the 4th of July. I wanted to keep Kaitlynns mind of her dad not being here with us so we didn't stop ALL WEEKEND!!! I literally was so exhausted last night I couldn't do another thing. Had people in the house for days it was great!!! She had so much fun, definitely a memory made with her. Dad will be home Tuesday so we're excited to share our adventures with him as much as we are to hear about his!!!

The brother...Kevin



Today I find myself pondering on choices I've made over the years, wondering if the right ones with family have been made. Next to my husband there is a man out there who I adore and respect more then I could ever express. My brother Kevin is such an amazing man, he hasn't even figured out how awesome he is yet. What's breaks my heart is those around him don't know how great he really is.
We've had our challenges over the years, even recently we've had challenges but I do understand his position, I respect his choices but Kevin you need to know you have SO much to offer, you have 100 time more potential to offer this society then you realize. you are skilled, you are admired and you kick ass.
My brother rocks, he is a black belt, a cop for many year, skilled educated and working further on his education to enhance his skills.
Kevin, I want you to know you are missed, You are loved and admired. Not only by those out there who are jealous and want to be you but I admire your resiliency and perseverance. Reach for your dreams! You are my hero Kevin McGillvray. I love you!
