Our little firecracker




B-I-G Mother's Day surprise

Justin and Jailyn have been "crew" members for the Donner family who fly hot air balloons for awhile now. Little did we know that they had been conspiring - and earning - a free trip up for Lange and me on Mother's Day. The weather was PERFECT, and I wasn't nearly as terrified as I would have thought. Lange took these awesome pictures. We took off in Long Run Park and landed right behind our house.







































Cincinnati Zoo
















Snack time!

We put Jonathan's snack up on the high chair so Jaclyn couldn't get it.... so we thought. Little Miss "Smarty Pants" figured it out right away...

One of our favorite things

We love to eat at out-of-the-way places, and we found this wonderful restaurant on our trip home. I only wished Lange and Justin could have been there to enjoy it with us...
















Missouri Trip, April, 2010

Jailyn, Jonathan, Jaclyn, and I travelled with my parents and my sister Jessica and her two girls to Missouri for a few days to see my grandparents. They have only seen Jonathan a few times, and they had never met Jaclyn.
