Mom and son wait for darkness. (Which is the bigger kid?)

Brian and Jan opened their home for the celebration.

Fourth of July

A little late with pictures of the fourth, but here they are. BBQ and fireworks and fun in Grain Valley.

Another Puppy

We welcome a new neighbor... Blue (Blues Man). Another new friend for Molly and Jazz.

Jazz

A new addition to the neighborhood and it appears a new playmate for Molly. Jazz hails from Tex and Molly's home state of Texas. Six weeks old and at home and loved by her new masters.
We welcome Jazz and look forward to seeing her grow and have fun with her new adopted sister Molly.

TEX

Today was a sad day, our buddy, and Molly's brother Tex lost a short battle with a disease and passed away. He was with us a little over three years, and brought much joy to Shelia and Kevin as well as anyone who came in contact with him.

Tex was always dressed for the occasion, whether it was Christmas time, the yearly "wiener dog race", a party at his masters house, or just one of his frequent visits to his sisters house to run and play.

He was always a gentleman, and always acted the part of big brother where Molly was concerned.

Tex will be missed by all who knew him, and our lives are richer having known him.

2008 Prom

What a beautiful evening to have a prom! I was delighted to be invited to take pictures of several of our students from church for their prom. It's such a blessing to see young people grow up from infants and to have a bright future ahead. They all have wonderful caring parents, family and friends who encourage them as they grow up to be adults. Enjoy!
