2009 Olympics

The Holtz family hosted their first Olympics, it was lots of fun as you can see. They set up a kid race and then the same race for adults. Thanks so much for all your efforts, we hope you'll do this again next year!

Look what my COOOOOL HUSBand did!

So, for the past few months this outdoor sofa is what Rick has been working on, no plans here, he just sees a design and takes a few dimensions and after a lot of thought...... and then some more thought............ WAA LAAAA!! Looks great Baby!







Here is a table from inside (he did make this as well) that we are using for dimension to figure out what type of table he will make for outside. Then, lastly will be a loveseat, winter projects.

Fishing & Playing at the beach!

JD has really enjoyed fishing this summer, he caught a nice blue gill and a small bass.......... (it's sooo fun to watch him reel them in)


Last week Nichole and I took the p-nuts up to Hagar Shore beach and the kids had a ball playing. I think I'm still finding sand:)

Our last month!

We just got back from camping with "Mimi, with the camper" JD, Ella and I headed out and joined Grandma LouAnn for some camping fun. While we were there we enjoyed a train ride, put-put golfing, playing at the pool and last but not least hours of fun fishing!! On Tuesday, JD & Ella's cousins joined us for some fun, here is Sierria feeding Ella a rice krispee treat

look how big that worm is....... don't look to close (there is not a hook), he kept saying, "the fish are not very hungry mom"

So, just last Friday, my cousin Missi and her husband Rich, welcomed their new peanut into this world, Miss Sydney Elise. Congratulations guys, she is just beautiful. JD could not get enough of her and after we left he kept asking when we were going to visit again:)
This was taken a couple of weeks ago, Miss Daisy had her first day at the spa, she was soooo cute when she came home.

This was lots of fun, i took JD to his first movie and it happened to be my first 3D movie, he had to have told me at least three times during the movie, "mom, I'm glad you took me to the movie" that made my day!


we have bonfires................ but, really just to have smores:)


Bean is 15 months here:)
A family blueberry picking event, lots of fun. Mom, Andy, Kate & the girls, Micki, Mitchel, JD and I went blueberry picking @ the Blueberry Ranch, the picking was amazing and brought back memories of when we were little picking with mom. Thanks mom for getting us together.
