Life brings up many changes

Hello fellow blog readers!

This is an update with no pictures. It is my wish to update my blog more often and also to realize that updating a blog can include words only. There does not need to be a picture, which is hard for me to do!

There have been many changes in our lives in the last 3-4 months. As most of you know the kids and I will be moving to Moorhead at the end of July! We are very excited about our house and can't wait to get moved in. Dominic will be staying in the house in Kindred, so the kids will still have their familiar home every other weekend.

We are going on many trips this summer. We plan to live at the lake for most of June and much of July. July 10, we are headed to Bismarck for the weekend to meet up with college friends. We haven't all been together for over 4 years, so it will be REALLY exciting.

Then we are going to Medora camping! Whew... I'll be sure to let you know how sleeping in a tent with a 1.5 and 4 year old goes! Grandpa Tom might have to be in charge of Keaten. I am praying for cold weather as I HATE heat and do not sleep well when its hot and humid. This will be our family first camping trip with all the McKinnon's attending... and possibly last! We sure do get spoiled with the lake cabin.

Hope you are all doing well. I do need to get new pics of the kids up, as they have really grown! Lexi actually has longer hair...and she smiles all the time and Keaten has become such a wonderful young boy!

I'm excited for my "new" journey in life! I'm grateful for God as he has shown me the right path and has given me the strength to go down that new road. I know that there will be many bumps and/or pot holes (however you want to look at it) however I know that is where you, my faithful blog readers, will come in! You are my sounding board!

Always trying to get a cute picture!

The following pictures were an attempt to get a nice christmas card picture....well I failed, however some cute informal pictures. Lex has gotten so big, I'm amazed at looking at her in her pretty dress how grown up she looks.. and oh my Keaten.. what a gentleman! I'm a proud mom!











All I can say is we are so proud!

I'm looking forward to the day Keaten brings a girlfriend home and we can show her all of Keatens wonderful pictures. We are so proud... at least his socks and underwear match!
