More fun in May

Ok, so I didn't capture a great first picture. This is my first official picture taken with the Camera I got for Mother's Day.

These are my girls. Emily, Andrea and Jenny are the final three girl scouts I have. After 8 years we are closing our troop this year so we went to a local hotel to party. Everything was fun until the fire alarms went off at 6:30 a.m. and continued going off for the next hour. I will miss the fun I had as their leader.


Some how Emily's math teachers figured out how to get permission to go to a Tiger's game. Something about statistics. Any how we had great fun and great weather and the Tiger's won! This is the group I was in charge of: Back row, Emily W., Emily W., Jenny, Matt and Chris. Front row, Jana and Eric.


On May 26th Jeremy turned 11. For his party we went to the local go cart track and putt putt golf place. Another day of fun and great weather. Back row, Kevin, Emily, Jeremy, Brent and Rashaan. Front row, Pepper and Adam.



This is Jeremy with our neighbors and friends Adam and Pepper. They are moving to Germany soon and Jeremy wanted a picture with them to have in his room. They will be missed.




Emily once again marched in the Memorial Day parade. They got to march with the high school this year. Emily can hardly wait until next year when she get to wear the mohawk.






The day after Jeremy turned 11 he crossed over to Boy Scouts. He worked very hard to earn his Webelos badge and his Arrow of Light. This is Jeremy with his leaders, Ken Tucker on the left and Trevor Davis on the right. We are so proud of you Jeremy!

Misc. happenings

These are not the best photo's. They are off my regular camera. This is Rob and the kids on the tea cup ride at Disney in February. I can't handle the spinning so this is a ride just for them.

This is Emily in front of Cinderella's castle. In all of our years of going to Disney we have never seen the castle turn ORANGE! It is usually blue,pink, yellow, green or white. This, as all of you know, is Emily's favorite color in the world.


This is Jeremy's class in front of the Michigan state capitol. I was not able to attend this field trip so another parent took this picture. Can you find Jeremy? His teacher is on the left in green and Jeremy is the 4th head to the right from her in the back row. He is right behind the kid in the white suit and the kid in jeans and a t-shirt.

All About April

This is Emily acting like a goof with her birthday cake. Those are chocolate bowling pins on her cake.
This is Allie, Emily,Sasha and Kelsey getting ready to bowl at Emily's 14th birthday party.

Once again Emily performed with the 8th grade band and once again we could not take pictures in the auditorium. So this is Em playing the triangle in the hall after the concert. She still leads the percussion section.


Jeremy and his cello. He performed with about 250 other 5 graders from Waterford in the all district concert. They sounded awesome!



EEEEWWW! I think that is how you spell gross! This is Jeremy in science class dissecting a sheep heart. Thank GOD Rob went to school with him this day.





I took this picture of Emily to send in with her application to be a student ambassador for Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. If she is accepted she will go to businesses and talk about how Diabetes has changed her life and encourage them to support JDRF.




This is Emily's reaction upon opening her birthday gift from aunt Jan. It is tickets to the upcoming Keith Urban/Taylor Swift concert. She was speechless!
