Baby Kennedy getting so BIG!

I went to Rushville last weekend for the whole weekend. The kids finished Upward basketball so we were able to go Friday and stay until Sunday, something we haven't done since bball started in November!! Mary brought Kennedy over for a visit and I was shocked at how big she is. I LOVE the cheeks! The boys (Clay & Brayden) weren't too much into posing for a picture with Kennedy, but Madi was up for it!!! I love the pic with Mary looking down at Kennedy and Kennedy looking up at her mama! Nothing compares to the love between mothers and their children. Kennedy gets along just fine with Papa Miller (actually she likes him better than me!) so I had to include a picture of them too!

Britt with Mike & Sandi

Britt is in 2nd grade and one theme they have been working on is family trees, grandparents, etc. We needed a pic of Britt with her grandparents for a Family Quilt. Here is a pic of Britt with Mama & Papa. It is too good of a picture not to post it!!!

Quick Trip to Omaha Feb '09

I got the chance to go out to Omaha to help Alicia and Jerry out from 2/19 thru 2/22/09. Jerry has been very sick (the last diagnosis is ulcerated colitis) and was put in the hospital. My main goal was to help her with the kids and around the house so she could spend as much time as possible at the hospital. As with everything else, there are God's blessings to be found in every situation. I have never gotten the chance to spend alone time with Alayna and Jared, so it was nice to have close to 4 days just hanging out with them in their home environment. I was able to watch Alayna open the birthday package that I had mailed from Indiana. The photo shows her modeling that present, a gymnastics leotard (matching Nike running suit not shown). I think it is safe to say that Alayna loved her present!!! I love the pic of Alayna and Jared. She was trying to pose and Jared thought she was tickling him!!! TOO CUTE! I love my Nebraska niece and nephew! On the Jerry front, he is feeling much better and has been home from the hospital for over a week now. Thank God for family and the chance to help each other out when life hands us a tough blow!

10 Year Anniversary 2.13.09

Chad and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary this year. Chad (a non-flower guy!) sent me 10 red roses for our special day. He has needed a new wedding band for quite awhile so that was my present for him. I can't believe it has been 10 years. Now, when I look at our wedding photos we look so young!!! I think it is quite an accomplishment to hit the 10 year mark and to still be counting!

Movie Review: He's Just Not That Into You

I went to see this movie yesterday with my good friend, Tina. I laughed outloud several times! I love several people that are in it and I wasn't disappointed. I would watch it again. Grab your best gal pal and go see this movie!!!

The unveiling of the IPFW jersey Feb.2009

Mike, Britt, Clay and I went to the IPFW game last night. Mostly to cheer on Trey but to also show off Clay's replica jersey. We had it made for Clay's bday and it is just like Trey's including IPFW & # 44 on the front and McCorkle & #44 on the back. Although we have texted some pics to Trey, this was the 1st time Trey got to see Clay wearing it. I am not sure who smiled more-Clay or Trey!!!

The kids giving Trey high five after the game (which IPFW won by the way!).

Clay got an IPFW basketball and Britt got an IPFW water bottle and we had Trey autograph them after the game!


While we were waiting to talk to Trey after the game, the kids played on the court. Nice defense Clay!!! Maybe one day I will figure out how to shoot motion pics on my camera!?!?!
