Cograts!!

Well ....... it must be the season for young couples to get engaged! It seems like everyday we are hearing of another couple who are engaged. Well Michael's sister Megan got asked by her now Fiance Mikyl, and we couldn't be happier. Welcome to our Loving and sometimes chaotic family Mikyl. We know that you will treat her with the respect and love that she needs, you have proven that with the way you have treated her while you were dating. I wish I had a pic of the adorable newly engaged couple but I will take some at Megan's COLLEGE grauduation!!!!! Way to go Megs!

A little Treat

After Mike's game on Thursday we went and got a treat, even though the wind was blowing at about 100 miles per hour and Merci and I were in the crowd cheering mike on while being wrapped in a blanket. It is still a tradition that we go and get treats after his game. So here is Mike and Merci sharing her first Ice cream cone (lets be serious here, the kid has had ice cream before, just never in a cone before.) I have to tell you guys how good Mike's team did. Mike hit 3 for 3( Way to go honey ) and he even made it all the way home one time, though his team did end up losing by 1 point 15 to 16 we were really impressed with how well the team played together, especially for this only being there second game and since half of the guys haven't picked up a bat in the last 10 years.

Little Logan

Well......I have to start off by saying sorry that it has taken me so long to update my blog, what with family being in town, church, and Mike's Softball games I have been so tired at night , that i just haven't had the energy to even look at my blog. Well mister Logan was born on may 14, 2008, and though I titled this entry "little Logan" he was anything but, he weighed in at 9 lbs 14 oz can you believe that, almost another 10 pounder. I don't know how my sis carries it her doctor was very certain that he was going to be no bigger than 7.5 lbs. Well all i can say is that it sure has been fun having both my sis' home with their babies.

Baby Alger

Yay!!! baby Alger was born today. Hannah was induced and had an unbelievable labor (Way to go Han, you did awesome) Little beautiful Aubri Kathryn Alger (Sorry I don't know the exact spelling on the first or middle name) was born at 5:24 pm and was 8 lbs and 2 oz and 20 inches long. We love you guys and are so happy for this new little addition to our family, can't wait to get to know her personality.

Merci's Reading Chair

I just thought this was far too cute not to share it with everyone, here Merci is before bedtime, sitting in one of Kambri's old car seats. You should have seen the smirk on her face when she sat down in it, she thought she was so cute. It was actually nice to have that in her, because it helped contain her, often times its hard to get her to sit down long enough for a bedtime story.

Family Weekend

Poor Grandpa, he was pushing Kambri practically the entire time we were at the park.

Merci playing on the Turtle at the play area at the Mall. (thanks again uncle Jay and Grandpa for keeping an eye on the kids, while us girls got to shop.)

The girls love their Uncle Jay. (Thank you Grandma for their cute shirts)

I know that this posting is about 2 weeks too late, but I really wanted to post pictures of our fun weekend when my parents came to Medford. The weather that weekend was absolutely beautiful, almost too beautiful, I think that the temperature was into the upper 80's that weekend. We were able to be outside practically the entire time they were here. I know that that was only a few weekends ago, but as it happens we are getting the house ready for you guys to come again this upcoming Monday, I am so excited that the next time we will be seeing you Hannah will be having her precious baby girl, Our family will grow by two new babies (Tasha's & Hannah's) in just a matter of 2 more weeks. I'm happy to have these little babies enter into our family because It will help to cure the little bit, I mean almost non existent, of baby blues that I have. I am by no means ready to venture down the infant phase again, but my heart is already being prepared by the Lord to get ready for that phase in our Life again.

Pear Blossom Parade! ! !

Well this was Merci's first parade, and I have to say she did an awesome job. Of course her favorite part was when there was music, every time there was music she would get out of her little chair and start clapping and Dancing. I absolutely love to see her dance, the girl has music in her soul. The weather this year for Pear Blossom was wonderful, almost too hot even. We were blessed that Grandma Combs, or as Merci would say it Mahma, came prepared (like she always is, what would an unprepared mother like myself do with out her) she brought all kinds of goodies, drinks, chairs, SUNSCREEN (Thank You) and other fun stuff for the kidos. Here are a few pics of Xander, Kambri and of course Merci.
