TJ rips!



TJ is loving his skateboard class! What's not to love? You get to watch the big kids showing off their tricks, learn a few of your own and feel like you can do anything when you skate onto a RAIL and off again w/out falling off!!! TJ- are you sure your a beginner???



Check out my form!!!! Look Ma, no hands!!




Skater dude! Lookin good!



Love sliding down the big ramp! Whoo hoo!

The White cousins!!!

i love seeing my kids w/ their cousins! Jim's side, my side - - doesn't matter when there's lots of love!! We had a mini reunion the 1st week of July. (we were all together on the 4th, but no pics yet!)

our purpose besides catching up, eating out, and having tons of fun, was our darling Caity.
she was diagnosed w/ a heart condition in May. Her heart is seriously working overtime and she is getting very stressed out!!! (just to put it lightly) Life, these days is not easy for this darling girl, nor for her family. Along w/ the worries that go along w/ hospital stays, heart procedures, and the possible threat of a heart transplant, hospital bills started piling up! Sari's parents along w/ Brent's parents put together the 2 Papas golf tournament. The whole family came together to support it. AND there was a huge turn-out. W/ all the horrible things you hear on the news and see on the internet, it was a great thing to see the LOVE and SUPPORT this amazing family received! We were so happy to be a part of it.

The best part for the kids??? or should i say parts?
  • running around the club house w/ minimal parental supervision!
  • in the same booth together at dinner and breakfast!
  • overnight stay at a Fountain Hills hotel w/ lots of swimming!
  • to of silliness w/ the added benefit of annoying the parents!
  • slurping Killebrew rootbeer floats! OH, sooo good!
Definite FUN




Beautiful, 
sweet,
and very brave girl!
Caity- we love you!






What a handsome bunch of kids!!!
