A race up the rock wall! Ashely won, and she'll never let me forget about it!

All yin and no yang! What a night!

PJ and AJ’s first fall festival together. PJ wanted to go as spiderman, and AJ was Gizmo the gremlin. Do not expose him to bright lights, do not get him wet and no feeding after midnight!

It was a narrow path to climb, but Ashely really wanted the picture at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado.

Wouldn’t want to bump into this guy in a dark alley!

Ashley’s throwing stars. She hit her mark!

Cleaning the land for our new home. It was a lot of work!

PJ’s first day of preschool.

A little relaxation time with PJ and AJ in our hot tub.

Will Ashely sink or float?

What a great view!

Here’s a blast from the past! My first published book and proud grandparents!

PJ’s first aquarium experience at Moody Gardens in Galveston Texas. It was a long and exciting day for PJ.

It’s always an adventure with PJ and AJ around!

I love exploring castles with the family!

I received this picture from a friend who was excited to have finally found his lost copy of LOTK from 2013!

I’ve always had a fascination with mines. I would love to go mining one day!

Another vacation destination to colorful Colorado!

A great birthday party with some of my favorite people!

PJ’s first water park experience! Oh, the fun!
