GO COLTS!!


Go Colts!!

We are ready for the playoffs!

Don't tell Uncle Doug & Aunt Connie I am wearing a Colts outfit!

Mom & Aunt Abbie taught me "spirit fingers"
Thanks to Grandpa and Granma Cole for Kate's cheer outfit. She is ready for the playoffs and for the Colts to play! She has been getting ready this week and looks forward to Saturday night. The old Sports Management truth of growing up loving the team your parents love is 95% true...Mom and Dad have brain washed her for sure! Uncle Doug & Aunt Connie (DIE HARD Steeler Fans) still try to convert her all the time. She was born in Western PA, and Aunt Connie gave her a Steeler Pink outfit for Steeler games, but she is true blue! Hope the Colts can advance this week...Kate will be watching! GO COLTS!

I AM GOING TO BE A BIG SISTER!



Kate has some great news that she wants to share with everyone. We are very blessed to have found out that Mommy is expecting and is due May 31, 2010! We are so excited and thank the Lord for this blessing. Kate loves kissing mom's belly each night as we pray for Baby Briscoe. Kate is helping more around the house and is looking forward to finding out if she is going to have a brother or a sister! Thanks for all your prayers! We will keep you posted!

Happy New Year 2010


We spent time with the Slyder's over the holiday.

David & Marisha it was great to be with you guys!

Aunt Abbie it was fun to watch you cheer!

Cy and Kate played during the basketball game!

Kate and Mom had fun at the water park over Christmas

I love the water!

We had a wonderful Christmas and New Year celebration. We were able to visit with family and friends over the break in Indy. It was great for Kate to see so many people who mean so much to our family. Kate loved the indoor water park with Mom and Dad, she loved see the Slyder girls, and she loved watching Aunt Abbie cheer at a game! We thank our family for such a wonderful holiday! Happy New Year! Kate wants everyone to know...GO COLTS!

We Have Been Busy!


I love my Mommy!

I love the lights on my Christmas Tree!

Mom and Dad spent with with Gigi and Pap in Florida

Daddy -- the car I want when I turn 16!
Kate has enjoyed a very busy end of November and beginning of December! We enjoyed Thanksgiving in Indianapolis with G-Mom, G-Dad and Uncle Justin and all our cousins, Kate then stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Cole and G-Mom and G-Dad Toombs while Mom and Dad went to Florida with the women's soccer team as they played in the NCCAA Soccer Tournament. Kate did not miss Mom and Dad at all -- all the Grandparents were much too fun!! Kate has enjoyed getting ready for Santa to come and to celebrate the birth of baby Jesus. No presents under the tree, they are all locked away as Kate wants to open them all right now!! She loves the lights on the Christmas tree and asks everyday when Santa is coming! Merry Christmas to everyone, we pray God's blessing on you all this special time of year!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN


Kate the Pink Poodle - Ready for some candy!

We had fun Trick-or-Treating with Kate
It was fun to have G-Mom visit for Halloween!

Dad made sure no monsters got me.

We went to Ms. Kelly's house for Candy...thank you Kelly!

Halloween 2009 - Kate will surely be mad at Mom and Dad later in life for this outfit! We had a great time going from house to house. Kate picked up real quick...after the second house her words became, "I go to next house now!" Lots of candy for Kate and Mom & Dad! We had fun with G-Mom visiting this weekend. Thanks G-Mom for going trick-or-treating with us last night! Kate did not want to stop, she thought it was OK to visit every house. We had a great time with the Pink Poodle! Happy Halloween!
