"Happy Birthday to the Two Most Important Men in My Life!!!"

You know how they always say you marry someone like your father? Well, I took that to the extreme. Not only do my husband and father share many of the same characteristics (i.e. the biggest hearts in the world, great senses of humor, faithful to their families, hard workers, etc.) they also share the same birthday. So, HAPPY 32nd and 55th birthdays! I love you both so much and consider myself a very blessed woman to have the both of you in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Dragon Boat Festival 2008"

We spent today with some of our favorite people attending the Dragon Boat Festival in Denver. We joined the Farmer family and their good friend Gene for a day filled with latern making, sword buying, snowcone eating, umbrella balancing, bus riding, lion dancing, boat racing fun. Dragon Boat... Not quite sure what this face is about... Jack, Caleb, Charley, and Dillan...

Lion Dance... Showing off the fans they made...

Fun on the shuttle... Charley Dawn... Chinese for "Dragonfly"...
Dillan Reigh...

Special friends... Gene showing off one of his many talents...

Dillan making a Chinese lantern... We love Brad's hair... Joia giving us her best "suprised" face... Caleb and Mommy on the shuttle bus... Sweet Caedmon... Gene and Ava... Snowcone madness...

"Um, yeah......."

So I took the kids school supply shopping today. All I can say is that I never want to do that again and that I also need to take on a second job...
