Welcome to my party of six, or more specifically my family of six. Out to dinner tonight for my 41st birthday with my family, the hostess asked, "how many?" I had to think for a moment, my newest addition to our family was only 20 days old, and this was our first venture out with our "new" family. "Six, party of six", I replied. The gravity of our new family size hit me, and thus my new blog for our new family had a name. Welcome to our new adventures as we start our new family life!

Visit to Kansas City

We took the whole family and headed to Kansas City to visit the Masons for Labor Day Weekend.  It was a lot of fun.  It was also a great way to have a little get away before I went back to work, as I was scheduled for my first trip on Sept. 9.  We had not been to visit for 3 years.  Wendi and Buddy are in a new beautiful home and they were great hosts. 

The plane ride went surprisingly smooth.  We had to change planes in Denver on the way there and the pic of Markie in his tanktop is from the airport.  He insisted on wearing that with a button up shirt over it, however the button up came off and he was left in his funky tank top.  We have a name for the tank top but we won't put it in this blog.  Anyways, even the baby was a great traveler on his first plane ride. 

Once we arrived, the kids spent a lot of time on their new trampoline, playing video games, and just havin fun!  The guys got to golf twice.  Wendi and I got away too to our favorite shopping area, Zona Rosa, and discovered our favorite new store, Charming Charlies,  AND I just found out they have one of those stores that just opened in the San Tan Shoppping area in Chandler.  I am soo excited.  They have tons of cheap fun jewelry.  So much stuff it'll make your head spin!

We had a great trip and stayed the whole weekend and came home Monday afternoon with no problems non revving.  Wendi is scheduled to be deployed to Afghanistan in January for 9 months, so it was good for our families to be able to spend time together before she goes.

  1. I bought all of my summer dresses at Charming Charlies last Spring, it is my favorite store too! Now, since you'll be just 2 miles away from me for gymnastics, we'll have to sweep away to the mall on occasion :)
