Delaney Turns 13

The fact that this is our second daughter's first teenage birthday questionnaire is kind of crazy.  But at the same time, I feel like we've "been there...done that."  Life is crazy that way, I guess.  Regardless, Delaney is now officially a teenager.  She is a free spirit and the most loving person I know.  She strives to find her niche all while making sure others are feeling appreciated.  It's crazy to think that I am now the father/parent of two teenagers...but I guess that comes with turning 40.  Keep being you and working hard DJ!  We love you!

Harper Turns 10

 AAAaaaaand all of our kids are now in double digits.  Man, where has time gone...and it doesn't seem to be slowing down at all.  Harper, you're growing up so damn fast and its amazing to watch.  You are such a determined human.  Every time you set your mind to something, you seem to figure a way to make it happen.  It's been amazing to watch you grow as a softball player the past year and as a pitcher.  It has been especially fun to watch you learn and grow in a new sport to you, volleyball.  Keep working hard at everything you do and you'll do just fine!
