Let's Break Down the Title.......THE QUEEN...

My Queen is the most beautiful, loving, caring person! She is the best wife in the world and the most awesome Mommy any kid could ask for. The kids tell her that often. Without her I would be lost!! God has given me the greatest gift in my wife Sandi. I love her, I need her, I look forward to sharing the rest of our lives together!

Everyone was winning prizes for Hannah (or else storing them with Hannah)

Colin and his cousin's Zach & Ashley love getting wet! Colin got the big waterfall. It was a blast!! Thank you so much to Zach, Ashley & Tracie for spending a fun day with us at Adventureland Park!!

Beautiful Bride, Mother of 2, Teacher, Farmer's Daughter and Wallpaper Hanger

Working with a smile on your face.........free.
Getting your house ready to sell........a few dollars.
Making your wife laugh at 10:30pm and snapping good shots.......PRICELESS!


Colin's First Kite Lesson.....He has the string all the way out!

LOOK, DADDY!!! I'm doing it!!!



Our Princess Turned 8!!





We thank the Lord every day for our little miracle, Hannah Mae! God gave us this perfect little angel (I believe) to teach us true unconditional love, patience and most of all.......selflessness. Afterall, we're all born with a huge dose of selfishness and we must put ourselves last and others first to truly see God's glory. Hannah, we love you so much, now and forever!! Mom, Dad & Colin

Summer Fun: On the Lake, 4th of July & Kolach Festival

























There has been some fun in Cedar Rapids even though flood cleanup continues. Praise God for all the people receiving help through Samaritan's Purse, American Red Cross, FEMA and others.


Colin loved the inflatable slide and playground at the Kolach Festival. He really loved the fireworks. Thanks to one of my alma madder's Kirkwood Community College, Cedar Rapids enjoyed an outstanding fireworks display set to patriotic music on the radio. It was like other years in CR but in a different location. We found perfect front row seats at the top of the hill.
