MS Walk & St Phils Fall Fest

Two more things we always do that mark the beginning of fall for us are the MS Walk and the St Phils Fall Fest. We do the MS Walk to support our cousing Katie who is fighting this disease with hope and grace. Such a beautiful person inside and out.

Tanner's

Oh yeah, this is a September post IN SEPTEMBER, can't believe it can you? We tried to make it to Tanner's to meet our cousins to play but that didn't work out. We invited some friends to join us for the fun though. It was a nasty morning but ended up being a beautiful afternoon, so the crowds weren't as bad as they usually are! Here is the overload of pics.....

Kenzee enjoying her last time with her old swingset. She got a new bigger one for her birthday but was still sad to let this one go. She asked that we take pictures so she can remember it and wrote a note to the new kids that will be playing on it.



First day of KINDERGARTEN!! are you serious, what happened here??!!?!




Kenzee's first time on the Illinois River, on Grandpa Roger's boat with our personal DJ Joseph Matthew.


Kenzee and Tyson at the first annual American Cancer Society Walk & Roll. Thank you again to all that donated to this cause. It means so much.

Birthday Festivities

Kenz was sick the week before her birthday but finally started feeling a little better on her actual birthday. We celebrated with her first mani/pedi with her sissy and friends Madi & Haylee. After that we went to Spotted Cow for lunch and headed home. She had her birthday party with friends from school on Saturday and a joint party with Caitlin for the family party. We were blessed with perfect weather for swimming and playing outside. Molly and I made the girls' cakes again this year per request.
