This is a big one!

Meet Whitney Kathleen! My sister Abby had a beautiful baby girl on September 10th. I got to be there for the entire birth and it was incredible. When she is older I'm going to embarrass her in front of her boyfriends with things like "Hey, I remember when you were covered in vermix!" She is such a sweet little girl and I loved her the second I heard the word pregnant! This is her typical facial expression - it resembles a look of paranoia, but I love it. Thanks Ab and Adan (bowling nickname) for letting me be a part of your miraculous day.
My Grandpa passed away on the 16th of last month. It was a difficult time for me and for all of my family. He was an amazing man and I will miss him! His 84th birthday would have been on the 29th of September. He called it the good month and said that all the greats were born in September - i.e. ME and HIM! For his birthday my entire family went on a riverboat around Saguaro Lake. Here is a shot of my Dad with Jaycie.
We got him a cake and even sang Happy Birthday. He would have loved it!

Zach, Shayne and Shayne's bow! So cute.

We went bowling while family was in town.

Another day we went to Pump It Up - always guaranteed fun! Here are Kennedi and Jaxson ready for a stand-off!
On Tuesday night me and Steph fulfilled a dream by attending the So You Think You Can Dance Tour at the jobing.com arena. They performed favorite dances from throughout the season and some really great new ones too! AMAZING!!!!! Steph and I plan to recreate some of the performances in our spare time... stay tuned! According to her - I'm Joshua (left) and she'll be Katee (right)!

Molly girl...
Thanks so much for sharing all this with me. I was so sad that we could not swing getting me down. Your Grandpa was amazing in so many ways. He was my Dad when I needed on and didn't have one, such a blessing to me. And yes, he was giving a great big smile while everyone sang Happy Birthday and cruised. He would that have thought that was the best.
