Madden's Baby blessing

Little baby Madden

Grandma Lou made each of the grand daughters matching cupcake "pillow case" dresses.

We almost had everyone here, but we also added one extra too :)

This stroller just wasn't big enough for everyone. All kids sure did try to sit in it one time or another. But as soon as Jayce or McKenna saw someone in it they let them know.....NO WAY it was for them! (which it was) :)

Can you find the "real" ape?

Grandpa Knopp Memorial

This is Navey and Kenna's Great Grandma Knopp (Karen's mom)
Silas, Karen (Nana), McKenna, Grandma Knopp, and Navey

Grandma Knopp

Each of the grandkids had a white balloon, they shared their favorite memory of Grandpa Knopp, and at the end they all released the balloons. What a peaceful moment!

McKenna keeping Nana and Papa busy so I could take pictures

And the night couldn't have ended up any better for these two; Aunt Dawn let them have a "tea party".

California August 2010

The waves were so HUGE that most of the time Silas and Navey were running away from them. We had to keep moving our chairs closer and closer toward the rocks and away from the water until we finally were ON the rocks. :)

Nice Boogie Boarding!!

Navey 1st Grade

Navey LouAnn Cowden

This is my beautiful 1st grader. She couldn't have been more ready and excited to start 1st grade. We were so fortunate to have her in Mr. Clay's class. She absolutely loves her teacher, going to school, playing basketball with Mr. Clay, reading, math, LUNCH (either home or school lunch on Friday's), and she does amazing on her spelling test! I am so blessed to have her in our family, she plays such an important role and is an amazing big sister!

7 Peaks

As a family we all went to 7 Peaks. The girls had a great time. There is nothing more that I love than being with Silas and my girls, and having a blast!
