Happy Father's Day Geoff!

 I really can't believe I captured that expression on camera of Geoff holding Olivia!  I have no doubt that my father in law is a baby lover.  And good thing, babies love him too!


 Dear Geoff,
       (Don't worry, I don't think anyone reads my blog anymore.)  I want to thank you for the influence and example you have set in my life over the last 13 years.  I love being an Orme.  I hope I can live up to my name.  I don't think it looks that hard to be a grandpa.  All you gotta do is love your grand kids and I know you do!  I also know my kids love you very much.  Even though we live away from family, we talk about family daily.  Our kids know they come from a strong family on both sides. 
       I want to keep this short and sweet, but thank you for all you do and all you are in my life.  I love your letters.  (yes, I can read them and I do read them.)  I love your jokes......most of the time.  I love your sense of adventure.  I watch you come to life every time you are around an animal or in the outdoors.  I think you are a very genuine, kind, and thoughtful person.  It is always the little things that count and you do a lot of little things.  For example, I see a little remembrance of your love every time I turn a certain pillow around on my couch and see the full imprint of an iron that was burnt into the material.  It makes me smile.   I will be sad to get rid of that couch one day.
         I am blessed by having two of the greatest father's in the world!
Love, Kristine

Ty man is 4 now!





A man on a mission...

 Tyler takes his little red wagon on an walk around the neighborhood for at least an hour a day.  There is nothing he enjoys more....besides cheez-its.

A wonderful baptism.







Fun weekend with grandparents.




Everyone happy and healthy!





inventive ideas!

These are the types of things that Josh and Maddie love to do with Olivia.  They were making her a desk with toys she could grab.  They were so happy that Olivia had so much fun playing in there for a long period of time.
