Big Changes

Kari with her shift


 This is how Kari spends her days. In a big, wet, dog pile


Our awesome little family. We sure do love it when we are all together


 None of this would be happening if it weren't for the two of us. I am so lucky to be married to my best friend.


  
Kari and the boys before she started the 9-11 Memorial Stair Climb. She climbed 110 stories in honor of Lt Kenneth Phelan Engine 217 FDNY.  


The 6 grandkids on Kari's side.



So much has been happening the past few months.  We had a crazy summer. The boys were both busy with camps in June. In July we had lots of visitors, Kristi and Blake; Lana, Jonelle, and Jase; Cheryl and her kids. I'm pretty sure there were more but I have lost count.We took all 4 of our kids to Arkansas for the week of 4th of July, it was a total bust. Everything was closed for the whole week becuase of the holiday.  The kids handled it really well though. We managed a few great moments and either way loved being together.  August brought the start of school for Zane, Ryder, and Kari. Zane started first grade, Ryder started "school" and Kari started the fire academy.  It's been a lot of changes in schedules and routines and figuring out a new way to make this crazy life work.  All in all it has been amazing.  Both boys love going to school everyday. Actually all three of them love going to school everyday.  Kib is keeping up with his cycling and rock climbing. He did the Hotter n Hell ride in August which was a huge deal for us because it marked the 1 year anniversary of his cycling accident.  What can we say, life is good!!!!
