Monster Bullfrog

Carter caught a bullfrog tonight and I have to admit, never laid eyes on one this large in my life.  He has had serious fun with it since it puffs up and makes the most awful screaming/hissing sound.  Lots of laughs tonight.

The only pic of Carter all weekend




The party was a huge success.  We had many good friends and family attend.  Tricia and Jane helped me immensely with the food preparation, and Becky outdid herself with the cupcakes, once again.  A fun time was had by all!

Laura's Graduation Day 2015

The girls before graduation practice
Laura's graduation was held at the Independence Events Center in Independence, MO.  Granny and Grampy attended the event with me, while Mike and Laura were a part of the ceremony.  We are very proud of all of Laura's accomplishments! Tears only came once-when Mike handed Laura her diploma and hugged her on stage!

Lunch with Carter

Laura finally had time to bring Carter lunch, and he was just a little excited.  He even chose his 2 best friends, Reid and Jayce, to eat with him.  Life does not get much better that this!
