New pics of the kids

So I know I just posted but here are some professional pictures we just got taken. They all turned out super cute. When Kathie comes home we have to take all the grandkids to this place and get their pictures taken.

Kids

Heres the kids having some summer fun!! We are loving the weather...I wish it was like this all year!

veteran's wall

I'm proud to say I made it to the Veteran's wall in Kirkland, and I'm still alive to see it! (Bonus) Hope you kids visit it. Your Grandpa Roach is on that wall too.

Mandy takes the plunge!

Mandy got baptized Sunday at Taylor Lake near Kirkland. She got dunked courtesy of Pastor Mike Morrell. It was fun, fellowship, and later, food! Aunt Linda and Uncle Ron got dunked too. Ha. That was fun.

Flower Girl

Jennee, where's our shot of Madelynn with hers?

New Pictures!

I finally managed to pull some more pics off my camera that have been on there for a while. Here's the rest!

Smiles and a Surprise

I got a few smiles, then something even better.

Kids having summer fun

Here is a picture of Madelynn trying out for Miss America! What do you think? The kids got to play today in the pool even though it was really cold....they had a good time. I put Madelynn outside the pool at first and just gave her a tub of water to play with. Now if we could just get the horrible thunder storms to stop so we could play outside all day we would be happy! Hope everyone is having a good summer. We are planning on having Madelynns birthday at the new house so we are pushing it back a little bit. Invitations will be sent out soon, when I figure out a date!! Love you all.

PS Kathie you are in trouble ( I got the videos of Ava crawling! Noah will soon learn that everything in crawling difference is fair game....poor guy!)

Budding Musicians...

Hey everyone- long time no post! Here's a couple of pics & videos. Check your comments Jason & Jennee! I love your photos & videos!!! There will be more from me soon- it's almost midnight, so no more tonight!

It looks like both of my kids are musically inclined! Here's Ava dancing in her Johnny Jump Up to the new "Nick Cage" album. And here's Noah at his violin lesson today, and his recital last Sat. He froze up a bit at the recital, but that's OK! It was his first one & he was the first to play! It was cute though b/c toward the middle of the recital he whispered to me, "Mama, I need to go again- I can do better!" So sweet.
Anyway, love & miss you all. XXXOOO, Kath & the fam

New Pictures!

Hey everyone, I've put a few new pictures up on my Flickr page that I took yesterday. Violet's been sleeping GREAT lately... 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hour stretches all night long. The only catch is she's doing it in our bed.... I know we're inviting trouble down the road, but if that's what we have to do so Steph can get some sleep, then so be it.
