Family Cookout

Just a reminder of the family get-together this Sunday at 1:00. Hopefully everyone from Great Grandpa down to Baby Dylan will be there. We have some kid activities and other activities for the "big" kids. See you then.

Dylan Hayes Wilkes Comes Home

Dylan got to come home on Saturday afternoon, he seemed to like the car ride. Kimi said he had a really good night last night and only woke up a couple of times. He sure is cute!

Baby Wilkes

Baby Wilkes was born today weighing 8lbs 10 oz & 20 inches long. He is sure a cute baby and well behaved he slept the whole time I visited. Kimi is still deciding on a name, by tomorrow I am sure she will know. His brothers got to see him as soon as he was born they were thrilled! Although neither were able to watch their new brother get a shot.

A Tea Party

Kay, Pat, and I got together for the first time in quite a while. It was so much fun. They even tried one of my healthy lasagna recipes. Sisters are great!

Fathers' Day

Gretchen painted a plaque in ceramic class for Grandpa.

Jennifer spiffed up Grandpa's front garden so it looked very nice for Fathers' Day.

Baby Update

Kimi is scheduled to be induced on Friday morning. Everyone is very excited, but no one as much as Kimi. This pregnancy has been very painful for her. I will post pictures as soon as I can, probably Friday night.

Painting Party

This past weekend we had a paiting party and a cookout. After painting Shane cooked out and we relaxed with family. Riley and Kayden even volunteered their time because, in Riley's words, "i just really want to help you guys out". They are growing up so fast. The painting is not done but we made progress. Also pictured are Dad and Kayden practicing using the Digger, Riley taking Shane for a 4-wheeler ride and Kayden and Riley posing by their word art.
