The Prince & The Princess

Kaylee and I enjoying the game!

Prince Fielder- signing Kaylee's picture...

Yeah- we got it!!
"Princey" is Kaylee's favorite Brewer and we were lucky enough to get his autograph before the Brewer game! It was a lot of waiting and a lot of running to get a spot in line. He only signed for about 20 minutes, so everyone didn't get their autographs. Thanks to my friend Laura for giving me all the tips and tricks to be able to get this for Kaylee. Thanks to Uncle Bob, too, for letting me leave work early to get to Miller Park before the crowds!

Our Trip to Ohio with Amanda and Sam


Fun and Sun at Lake Erie!


Jumping the big waves!

This picture is so cool- one of my favorites!

Mariah's quote of the day, "I fed sticks to a duck"




Kaylee and Sam at the restaurant on Friday night




We left at 1:30am on Friday morning and made it to Ohio by 10am or so. Amanda's Grandma was very happy to see us! We had some dinner and stopped to play in the water at Lake Erie. The girls had fun in the water and Kaylee was soaked! We headed to Geneva On The Lake on Saturday and had burgers and hot dogs at Eddie's Grill. They have foot long hot dogs there, but we didn't get that adventurous! The girls found really cute necklaces at one of the gift shops there. There were so many cute ones, it was hard to pick! Then we were off to Lake Erie (a different beach this time) and spent most of the afternoon there. It was pretty breezy, but Sam and Kaylee had fun in the water. Then we headed back to the house to get packed up. We left at 9am and headed home. It was sad to say good-bye, but hopefully we can head back there again next year.

All Clear...

I had my 6 month follow-up with my Oncologist last Monday. My liver enzymes were a little high (only one above normal) and I went in for a PET scan and CT last Friday. Those came back normal. Yeah! No evidence of cancer...

The liver enzymes are stable, still hanging out at the same levels. Dr says not to worry, especially since the scans are normal... we will see when she wants me back for a re-check.

We are heading out...

The girls and I are heading to Ohio with Amanda and Sam tonight. Girl's Weekend! I hope to post some pictures from the trip when we get back... we will be back on Sunday evening.

July is Over...

I can't believe we are into August already... where has the summer gone?

We have had a busy couple of weeks... we had the Kuecker Family Reunion and enjoyed visiting with Grandpa Kuecker. We did some camping up at Tracy and Dave's camper again last weekend, too. It is very nice and relaxing up there!

We have had 2 new babies born in out family in the last week. Welcome Audrey Mae Heideman and Daniel Joseph Holmes! We can't wait to meet them!

We will be spending the next week or so getting ready for school. School supplies, some new clothes... all the fun stuff!

School starts on September 1st and it will be here before we know it!
