Tim & Nicole's Wedding in Steamboat Springs, CO

My cousin Tim was married in Steamboat Springs in August.

We enjoyed the sightseeing around Steamboat. They have an Alpine Slide down the mountain. Mom & I gave it a try! So much fun that we went down a few more times!

Me, Dad & Katie going down the slide.

We all made it to the top. Dad, Mom, Ben, me, Katie, Aunt Karen & Erika.

Cousins - Ben, me, Katie & Erika. I had to stand on the rock & on my tiptoes to not appear so short. I am amongst the tall ones.

Look how tall I look!

Love this photo!!

McKenzie: 1997-2010

We are all very sad today at the loss of our beloved dog McKenzie. She was a wonderful dog and brought us all 13 years of joy, laughter and loyalty. She will be missed by all of us, especially her favorite human, Dad.

Her favorite toy, Pete the Parachuting Parakeet.

Her favorite place, Mason Lake. Racing into the lake to retrieve a tennis ball.

The look of success!

In the "Wood Grain Van" her favorite mode of transportation.

One year when it snowed we buried her in the snow and she just loved it.

Had to be one of the girls. We put our feet in and she joined with her paw.

Surprise Visit

Katie and I had a several hour layover in Washington DC on our way to Europe. We called John & Becca while we were in DC and they happened to be driving by Dulles Airport so they came by for a visit! What a fun surprise to see them all, especially John since he recently deployed to Afghanistan for 6 months.

Hailey with Daddy!

Wes loving on his little sister! What a good big brother!

And she's off!! She recently started walking!

Saying cheese for the camera & showing off his new Wiggles Backpack!

I'm a little teapot!

I was in Washington D.C. for work and was able to visit with John & family on Sunday night. I was able to finally see their new house (which is fantastic) and visit with John, Becca, Wes, Hailey & Morgan. Katie was also there visiting them. Here are some cute pics of Wes. He is quite a ham & loves singing.

Here Wes is signing "I'm a Little Teapot"

Wearing his Easter basket as a hat.

Those big blues... can't say no to them.

Wes & Hailey

I can't resist posting some new pics of my adorable niece & nephew. Wes is 2-1/2 and Hailey is 7-1/2 months old.

Wes loved collecting shells and filling his bucket with sand.

Big shoes - Wes called them Grandpa's shoes.

Say no to crack... Does he have a future as a plumber?

Such a happy little girl.

Katie & I bought this pink tutu for Hailey. She is finally old enough to wear it.

Love the ruffles.

Looks like a comfy way to sleep to me.

Washington DC

I went to Washington DC for work for a few days. While I was there I was able to have dinner with some of my Doyle cousins! John was able to join us too! It was wonderful to be able to meet Patrick, Pat & Ann's son. He is an adorable little guy.
