February

We told her it was bedtime and time to clean up...she said she wanted to sleep in her toybox.
Kissing the fishies goodbye at the Ripley's Aquarium at Myrtle Beach.

Wanting mommy to touch the crabs...she was a little scared, but kept wanting to go back and see them again and again.

Checking out what it swimming above her!

Making some very important business calls...

MOM! I'm trying to get some privacy down here!!!

Cheese!

Trying on mommy's shoes and caught this picture in the middle in the of her falling...

Running down the street (with daddy right behind her on a windy day).

Hi Everyone,

Sorry it's been so long again. Here are some highlights of the past few weeks:

1. Our fish bowl had it's first casualty. "Spiderman" the fish decided he'd like to go back to the ocean. Casey was fortunate enough to still be sleeping the morning that I found little Spiderman doing the backstroke, so now when she talks about him she says he's back in the ocean with his friends.

2. Kyle is in the process of painting his boat. He's finished sanding it and has ordered the new paint...now we are waiting for the weather to warm up so he can actually paint the boat. Pictures when that finally happens!!!

3. We found a great church down here (Sea Island Presbyterian) and Casey and I joined 2 weekends ago. Kyle plans to join as well (hopefully the next time he attends with us). It is a great church, we love the pastors, and everyone is so welcoming. Casey really loves going to nursery, too. Even better, there is a preschool there and Casey will start going 2 days a week in the fall! When we went for our "tour" she cried when we had to leave! Hope she feels that way in September!

4. We spent this past weekend up in Myrtle Beach with the Kilian's and the Genther's. Kyle, Casey, Jim and I drove up on Friday night and woke up on Saturday expecting just the Genther's to join us, but were surprised to have Kyle's parents walk in the door, too! We had a great weekend with them...they watched Casey so Kyle and I could have a night out on Saturday, we did some shopping, took Casey to the Ripley's Aquarium, and watched the marathon Daytona 500 on Sunday, too. We got back to Beaufort just this afternoon...and the Getz's (my parents) will be arriving early Thursday morning.

5. And the biggest news of all....(guess this one kind of goes with the last one in a way)...we had SNOW in South Carolina over the weekend! In North Myrtle Beach we had about 3 inches or so...guess Beaufort got a dusting...the nicest part of it all was that is snowed overnight on Friday and by noon on Saturday the roads were dry!

Well...hope all is well with everyone else and I hope to post again much sooner than before!!!!

Love,

Katie, Kyle, Casey, and Jim
