Everyone got to shoot but I took the pictures ;-)

 My brother, Jody and my nephew Jake.

Using the new cross-bow.

A little out of order, but this was the sleepover at our house on Thursday night after I picked up my niece Shelby from MN. 

.

Teaching the kids to play spoons.

The first night, we turned on 80's music and sang along while we played. The kids made fun of us!

By the second night, the kids were begging to play again and when we did, they turned the 80's music back on because they said it wasn't the same without it!!!

Steve & I 

The picture pretty much says it all!

Steve having fun at Dinosaur Park.

My brother passing on the tradition of awesome pancake making. He's teaching his daughter how it's done.

Jake showing off his spongebob pancake.

Steve loves going to my uncle Dennis's just to see his cars. Here's the one that won 1st place at the car show on Saturday.

 Playing at the pool.

Brandi & I

I claim her as my sister-in-law even though she's not actually married to my brother. They've been dating for over three years now and I love her. I tell her that it's not our fault that my brother has a marriage phobia so I'm claiming her anyway!

Shelby suntanning 

.

We saw this tiny little church by a rest area on the way to Rapid

so I made them stop for a picture on the way home

.

Monday morning drive from Rapid City back to MN with my niece and nephews. 

Long drive but great kids :-)

Even though I didn't get to grow up with their dad, it makes me happy that I've known his kids their whole life and I get to watch them grow up!

Rapid City Trip

I've had lots of people inquiring how the trip went this past weekend. It was good. I'll post pictures soon. This morning I'm involved in the enjoyable experience of paying bills and then at noon I'm taking three kids to Sioux Falls, two of which will be seeing the dentist.

Just trying to get back to normal, which apparently is only a setting on the dryer ;-)

Girl

As Brittney was walking down our sidewalk with Buddy, Sophia came running out of the house dressed like this and yelling, "Girl! Wait for your best girl!"
