Matthew singing Mama Mia

remember when?

Do you remember this picture? Can you identify which nephew this is? They all miss you so much, and ask about you all the time. However, I only had this picture on work computer. Things are going just fabulous. The weather is a little warmer than yesterday but not as warm as it will be tomorrow. I am gonna run outside today. Getting a little nervous about the time frame for the marathon. Just a couple months left. Wish you could be there, if only to watch my tired ass pass the finish line :)

Just another day!

Well, we got through Easter....Hard to believe, it was cold and windy and poor Killian chased after his brothers hat only to lose his own!! But all is well, and the safari hunt for eggs continued. We did discover, however, that Reba can open a stupid cheap plastic egg and consume chocolate kisses covered in foil. She does not, however, like M&M's, as she licked those and left them to rot in the back yard. (Truly shameful waste!!) Will post a video soon! Next week is Killian's birthday, so hopefully warm enough for the zoo. Matthew is still working on his Mama Mia song, needs to incorporate a dance to it. :)

Hi girl, we are all so proud of you. You are an amazing women, I wish I was as strong and courageous as you. You are making us here at home so proud of you. Be strong, don't worry about your mom, we'll keep her in line, maybe slap her butt a time or two for you. Yea, we've got your back. Ask your mom where your life size picture, and plaque are so we can add you as our "adopted soldier," at work? I think it would be so cute! Take care and be safe.

Love, The Bantz Family

Good Luck

Hey Maddie,
Glad you made it to your destination! You should be very proud of yourself and I wish you the best of luck! Stay safe and be careful.
Maybe when you get back we can play some more racquetball games. Between the three of us trying to play it was always entertaining and full of laughs! Next time will need a camcorder, we could probably win some money lol.
Take care and keep in touch!
Tracy

Late!

I know that I should have had this done before you left, and that was my intention. I started this blog so family and friends could write to you, write about their favorite or funny moments with you. I personally want to tell you how extremely proud I am of you and that the thought of not giving you a hug or having you slug bug me in the car for over ten months is just sometimes more than I can handle!! I wish I had nagged you more!! LOL but seriously, you are such a wonderful young woman. It just seems like yesterday that I was dressing you in Winni the Pooh!! I remember starting your showers and turning on the fireplace! You were a real trooper back then, getting your stuff done first! Love you tons :)
