What kissing a girl in Nursery will get you...

...a fat lip! She totally decked him!!!{I started this post on the 7th of July and it has taken me this long to finally finish it, sorry.} Jonas kissed his first girl a couple of weeks ago, but that's not exactly where he got his fat lip. It sure makes for a cool story though, eh? He actually fell and hit the table in nursery. Top and bottom were hit and he was bleeding pretty bad. The nursery leader was really apologetic, but I told her that it was no big deal. He's a boy for cryin' out loud! I am surprised he hasn't broken a bone yet. I had to take the picture while he was sleeping because he kept licking and sucking on it.

On a more somber note, two weeks ago, yesterday, my sweet little {no exaggerating} grandma passed away. She has dearly missed grandpa and now she is back with him, which is good. We will surely miss her though. This picture was just after Jonas was born.

Here's most of my family. Pete and Jonas went home and Jeff {Carrie's hubby} and Owen were at my mom's too. Chris {Jena's hubby} wasn't there either, but I can't remember why. Other than that, this is everyone. We desperately need new family pictures.

My mom {on the right} and her sister Donnell. They took such good care of my grandma. They would visit her at least three times a day {but never during a JAZZ game!--grandma was a huge fan and she would get really into the game and swear and stuff, so she didn't want anyone else there to hear!}. Every time I visited my grandma, she would tell me what angels they were. And it is true. She couldn't have been in better hands.

Moving along to the 4th of July:

We got there when the parade was SUPPOSED to start, but found out that it had been going for about 45 minutes already. We missed the BMX bikers, which is one of the best parts! Bummer.

Jonas and his sweet shades!

The Sturdevants: fellow no family around-ers, so we hung out together! And we just recently realized that we are kinda related. My grandpa is Tasha's step-grandpa. What a small little world we live in!

Gina & Brooklyn enjoying the fireworks.

These are the best fireworks around, folks! Seriously. I think if we ever move, we'll have to make a yearly tradition of coming to see these fireworks.

I have been a blog slacker lately. So I haven't been blurking like I normally do. The summer is just getting away from me. Two weeks until our PEI trip. I am uber excited!
