FIBArk

This year was a very special FIBArk for our family. It was Justin's first time meeting his sister, Tracey. What? Yep, that's right. When Justin was 18, he found out he had an older sister, who was placed for adoption at birth, but no one knew how to find her. About two weeks before FIBArk, Tracey contacted Jean, it was her baby girl (her adopted parents had changed her name at birth).

Needless to say, it's been an emotional reunion. Everyone was so excited to meet Tracey!!


Everyone told Justin and his brother, Brennon , that Tracey wasn't coming until next month. Justin unexpectly showed up at Jean's house a little while before Tracey arrived and was surprised. Later, we surprised Brennon (above).

Justin, Tracey, Jean, Brennon. The first picture with Jean and her 3 kids.


Tracey & her husband, Ray. Ray and Billy's first hug.

Tracey is an aunt! Something she thought she'd never have being that she was an only child.

Dani didn't know what to think of the clown!
Gotta love the Shriners!! They make up a good portion of the parade every year! They are very entertaining and they are such a good cause!

Brady & Brian
Ray & Tracey
"Dude Looks Like a Lady!" I'm not sure of what they were supposed to be, but very interesting!!


Billy's made a new friend!
Never fall asleep at Jean & Micks, someone's likely to mess with you! Kaylee gave her dad a princess headband, Jean added some blush and some new eyebrows. Everyone got a good laugh, poor Brennon!

My Baby Girl

Dani is so cute in her little tutu! She loves wearing jewelry! If she finds a necklace, she'll put it on all by herself.

Billy & Dani

The weather is nice, the grass is green, time for more pictures of my kids!!! It was such a nice weekend, so we went to the park. They are so cute!! When Billy laughs, Dani laughs, she thinks the world of her big brother!



Billy looked so cute in his cowboy gear!! We went to Grandpa Gary's for some fun photos at the ranch. The chaps are Justins from when he was little.
