Going to the Zoo

On August 6th we went to the Zoo and brought along Uncle Joe. Here are some pictures to make you feel like you were there. Unless of course you were actually there... But I doubt it.

Pictures with Layne

On August 2nd we went to JC Penny in Des Moines to take Kara's 18 month and Layne's 2 year photos. Here are some shot's from the 'experience'...

July: Part Two

Kara's First time eating sweet corn...


The Klemme's came to visit us...

We found out that Kara's new car isn't a two seater...

I don't think that this one needs a caption...

July: Part One

Sometimes you just can't stay awake during lunch...


At an Iowa Cubs game on the 3rd...

Visiting the Lubbert's on the 11th for Grundy Days...

June Photos

It has been approximately three years since our last update. What can I say... We have been busy with work, school and a very naughty daughter that insists on telling us 'no' even when we aren't asking her to do something. The fact that I am even on here now is mind boggling.

Let's work our way back up to speed with some pictures first...

Meeting Michael J. Fox

A few recent photos...

We decided to try on the Snow White costume one last time before it doesn't fit,




played in the pool,


played our version of ladder ball...


and had some fun in our turtle sandbox.

California: Day 3

One Word. Beach.

Well, ok... I guess that would be three words. Unless, of course, you don't count the two words leading up to the word. Then it would still be only one.

However, if you would have just seen the word by itself you would have most likely thought it useless as there was a picture of what said word was describing less than an inch below it.

At least I got ya thinking...

You're welcome.

California: Day 2

On our second day in California we went to a Back to the Future convention in Burbank. We had a great time and had the chance to meet some very cool people. There was a good number of actors from the Back to the Future trilogy in addition to other movies and television shows. Kara actually met more of them than her dad as he was waiting in line for Christopher Lloyd for two hours and she was wandering around wherever she felt like going. We took home some great photos and video and a few autographs as well. Here are some highlights from that day...

California: Day 1

On our first full day in California we decided to go to Disneyland. After the hour wait to park we finally made it inside. We were able to go on rides such as Nemo, Haunted Mansion, Indiana Jones, Winnie the Pooh, Pirates of the Carribean and a few others. These are some highlights from that day...

Kara got to meet Mickey and before we left the room where he was she gave him a kiss on his nose.

Before we left the park we were able to see some of the princesses and take a few pictures.

And when we finally made it to the car...

End of day 1.

Dancing with a side of drama

I hope you like the Winnie the Pooh theme song...

PTA Carnival

Time to go outside

On Monday of this week Kara's uncle Joe was visiting as he was on spring break. It also happened to be as close to seventy degrees as we have seen in about four months. So we decided to go to the park for a little while. I wonder if I have any pictures or video...

Yep.

Out to eat

The following are some photos and video from a recent trip to Red Lobster here in Ames where we met up with Lance's side for dinner. It was also a chance for Kara and Layne to do somethings like...

share some chocolate milk...



give eachother hugs...

and walk around the restraunt by themselves...
