Third times a charm....

The girls and I at our favorite place in Oregon~ Cannon Beach~ we spend a long weekend here every summer~ where we rest, relax, surf, have campfires, and enjoy quality family time!

As my wonderful friend Marcus put it.... creating a blog requires the perserverence of a marathoner. I couldn't agree more, but I WILL figure this out!! I WILL perservere!

In the meantime, I've decided that this blog will be published, errors and all, after all I can always go back later and edit right?!
These are just a few pictures of our first few years in Oregon

My little surfer girls, enjoying the Oregon coast.... It's hard to believe we've lived on the west coast for almost 5 years!!!

Kyndsi and her bright beautiful smile- enjoying her 9th birthday cake!

Kyndsi - 5 years old-

Kyndsi and I after 2008's Eugene 1/2 Marathon- notice my road rash on my knee- I've never been the most graceful person - I'm happy to report this year's race was much easier on my body, I managed to not eat any asphalt... pictures to come soon on that.

Kennedy and Max- 2005- Max has put on a little weight since this picture, and enjoys sleeping a lot more, he has even mastered the art of snoring (even when he's awake!)

What a sweet smile!!!


Kennedy 'focusing' at her gymnastics meet 2007

Kyndsi and Bo 2005

Myself, Gabrielle, and Karen- synchronized coaching- 2007

Kyndsi and Kate (2007) her best friend- doing chores early morning- Kyndsi is too short to get the grain into the feed bucket so she stands on a bucket to get the grain in!

Regardless of where we live.... I'll always be a Husker girl at heart.

My goofy girls! Summer of 2008

Grandpa's girls !!!

Kennedy, myself, Nolan and Kyndsi~~after a long day of junior rodeo and the girls are still ALL SMILES!
