A new post!

No your eyes are not deceiving you...there's really a new post.  With Christmas fast approaching I guess it's my attempt to get onto the nice list and it only took a week on vacation in AZ to find the time.  So much has happened the last 5 months and instead of trying to write it all down I'm just going to get to the fun part...the pictures.

Sophia and Jackson to Kevin, "Kiki you're a little behind the times...put down that Barbie laptop and get an iPad."


 Our poor little Riley...a few months ago we found out she has a very aggressive cancer, so she had to have surgery to remove the tumor.
