Best seat in the house! My niece’s,Sophie, Halle and Brooke, watching the show. The boys are very entertaining, especially if Keaton is involved.

Keaton loving the water! This child knows no fear. We brought our water slide and water guns to the Paulsen’s home. The kids have so much fun when they get together. Keaton and Adelle have 14 cousins on the Paulsen side, so as you can imagine our gatherings are very busy and fun.

Here is my sweet Adelle at Jason ‘s parent’s home. We spent the day with my in-laws. It started at Casey and Nanirey’s home for Andres’ birthday party, then we all migrated to Mark and Bonnie’s home for a father day’s celebration.

I am 30!, originally uploaded by POULS29.

WOW! I am really 30 years old. This birthday has been very different than the last couple of birthdays. I usually get a little down for getting older. This time, Jason made sure that wasn’t going to happen. He made me feel like a superstar. He surprised me with 3 dozen balloons and 4 dozen roses. I couldn’t stop smiling all day! Also, he gave me a little camera that I can fit into my purse and new perfume. Then later , he took me to the Cheescake Factory for dinner. It’s not that I got spoiled rotten that made it such a good day, just that my husband was determined to make it special. He is the greatest husband ever. My parents also helped make it a great day. I got some great earrings from my parents that they brought back from Istanbul, some money, which is always great. Then they watched my kids while Jason and I went out for the night. Whoever said that birthdays suck when you get older? Oh, wait, I did.  Well… I take it back. 🙂 Besides, isn’t 30 the new 20?

Adelle still wasn’t feeling well. But she did great with all of the family functions the week of the wedding. This was taken at Wingers.

While Chemenn and Jeff were in town for the wedding, we all went to Wingers to celebrate Jeff’s Graduation. I couldn’t get everyone in the picture. Not pictured, the graduate himself and my little family.

Congratulations to Jeff for graduating from Law School. He just finished at Vanderbilt Law in Nashville. What an accomplishment! Chugg for President 2016!

This was when Keaton was just a lad.  I think this is where his affinity for water originated.

My daughter is the sweetest and most adorable baby ever. She had a great time at the zoo. Although she was more interested in watching her brother than looking at the animals. I guess Keaton is more interesting.

He cracks me up. Keaton came up with this pose all on his own. What a heart breaker!
