Mom's 76th birthday.


Friday the 12th of February was my mothers birthday. We celebrated by going to dinner as a family at Grindstone Charlies. As I was growing up we used to have a Gene's bakery here in town and they made big smiley face cookies. They were my mothers favorite! A couple of days before her birthday a friend of mine just happened to post the receipe on her facebook page and so Kimberli and I got together and made them! I can't however take any credit for icing them. I had to work so Kimberli did that on her own. They were AWESOME!

Nathan's Medal


Nathan as you know is in the Navy. He has been out training for the last month. The final day of training he received this medal. It is the highest award you can receive without being in combat. They gave it to him for excelling in his field and going above and beyond the call of duty!!! We are SO PROUD of him!
