I suppose there's no excuse or explanation for being away for five and a half months, so here's a peek at some highlights from our family life this spring and summer.
Adam has really advanced in Karate! He's a purple belt now and he loved doing a week long karate camp this summer.
The cousins went on a fun Spring Break trip to Great Wolf Lodge with Pappy and Mary.
