Pretty Flowers - for now


I am so proud of my front flower bed. I had quite a few flowers volunteer back from last year and just filled in the empty spaces. I don't know if it will continue to look this way through the summer so I thought I would grab documentation now.

And then there were two


It isn't the best picture but you get the idea.

Here they come!

So I felt a tooth coming in at the beginning of this month but it has finally come in enough to see. It was great fun trying to get a picture of it and keep her tongue out of the way. Yesterday I could feel a second one coming in right next to it, just not visible yet. Let the chomping begin!!

Family Photo




Here is the Shurtliff family photo we took in February. This is 8 brothers, 4 sister in-laws, 2 parents, 1 husband, 4 granddaughters (1 of which is Anna), 2 grandsons and a partridge in a pear tree. :) The two sister in-laws that will or have joined the family this summer are not in this picture. Can't be in the family picture until you are legally family. Back row (left to right): Kyle, Jarom, Quinn, Dad, Matthew, Vance, Bryce, Mitch. Middle row (left to right): Reese, Emily (Quinn's wife), Mom, Tamera (holding Anna), Heidi (holding Jerkia), Shane. Front row, kind of (left to right) Emily (Reese's wife, holding Kindee), McKay, Maylee, Peter, Julie. I hope that makes sense. If it helps "families" are wearing the same color. Mom, Dad and single boys are wearing blue but then the marrieds picked a color and dressed their family in it.
