Whirlwind

It's been a bit since my last update, although I'm not quite sure how that happened. Life has been a little challenging the past few weeks, but I can see light at the end of the tunnel!

Here is a little photo journey of the fun you've missed.

 We spent a weekend in Mulvane in June and got some much-needed nephew time! 

 Henry loves being up in the air and Uncle Kyle loves making him smile! 

 What's in here Nana? Henry is pretty steady when sitting up now and he is very curious!

He also loves to give kisses! 

 What a little cutie!

The Fox Family at Kyle's favorite restaurant.

 Aunt Jerilyn got this jumper for Henry and he was going to town! 

Asher playing in his playroom the night before we moved Stacy and Josh. I think in just less than three years, that boy has lived in more houses than I have my entire life! I bet Josh and Stacy are sick of moving! 

 Asher in Uncle's glasses. 

Asher loves being "worked over" by Zach. This was the same weekend as his going away party and Josh and Stacy's move, so there was a lot going on. Luckily for Asher, though, we always still have time to play!

Happy 4th of July from Kim and Trey's driveway! That's our usual spot for the Stillwater fireworks, even though they are rarely there. Brandon and Krissi joined us and we had a great time! 


 Ben and Jerilyn came to Stillwater for the weekend. We were so glad to spend some time with them. We went up to the dealership to visit Uncle Kyle, and he ended up selling them a car! I guess that just goes to show you, he is never off duty. Speaking of his work, he got a promotion this month, and I am so proud of him. It was definitely well deserved!

 Kyle was so excited when he found this train set "for the nephews." Conner had a good time playing with it, but I think Kyle and Ben may have enjoyed it a little more.


Now that Conner is crawling everywhere, he was having a blast exploring. His favorite things about our house were the air vent that made noise when he ran his hand over it, the door stop that he LOVED playing with and the sliding door in the dining room. Between the blinds and the baseboard, he had a great time. He also made me feel like a very bad housekeeper because every time we turned around, he found something new on the floor to stick in his mouth! :)

 Someone likes to tackle Uncle Kyle!



Well those are just a few of our fun adventures lately. I am hoping for things to get back to normal soon so I can be a little more timely. Have a great weekend!

Chi-town Shenanigans

The Tuesday before last, I left for a trip to Chicago. The annual ADRP conference was there this year and while I've been in the past, this year was different because our ENTIRE team went. There were seven of us in all, and we had so much fun together! Chicago is a place I've never really been dying to visit. I haven't been opposed, it just wasn't on the top of my list. However, after going there, I definitely want to go back. It's a very clean city and there is so much to do and so many wonderful things to see. Kyle and I will have to plan a trip there some day. If I learned one thing this trip it was that I work with the most awesome people! On the airport parking shuttle on our way home we met a lady. She said she opted to take the full shuttle because she and four of her coworkers had been together for four days and needed a little time apart. We all smiled and nodded as if we understood completely, but in that moment I couldn't. We spent our spare ti...

Love Text

I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned this before, but I LOVE the first Sex and the City Movie. The second, not so much, but I’m pretty sure everyone in America agrees with me on that one. I watched it while I was sick last week. In the movie, there’s an exchange between Carrie and Big that goes a little something like this: C: “Have you ever written me a love letter?” B: “Does a love fax count?” C: “When have I EVER gotten a love fax?” B: “Oh, I'm sure my secretary sent you one...at some point. What can I tell you, baby? It's just not my style. Besides, those guys had to write. They were separated from their loves by wars and hundreds and hundreds of miles. I'm right here. Hello. You make me very happy.” C: “Yeah, yeah. Put it in writing.” Comic genius. Anyway, that got me thinking that Kyle and I rarely ever stop to focus on what we love about each other. Unfortunately we spend far too much time pointing out things we wish the other would do differently....

Spring Break

Contrary to popular belief, the OSU Foundation is not closed during spring break. In fact, we are open on most of the university-specific holidays. However, I was fortunate to be able to take 1 1/2 days off to spend a little time with the family during their break. My parents, Zach, Stacy and Asher had planned to visit my Donahue grandparents in Kansas, so I decided to tag along. Poor Kyle had to work, but he also got to spend the weekend with Greg and Stacie. They took him to a Thunder game and then out for golf on Saturday. They also found some basketball video game Greg and Kyle used to play as kids so that entertained them for most of Saturday evening. Stacie sent me this photo. They won with a dunk during the final seconds of the game. I think they're excited! :) Back on the farm, we got to spend a little time with Landon, who is now 6 months old. It's hard to believe how big his is! He is even sitting up on his own. Asher did pretty good with him although he did unintenti...
