Our Story - Brett, Kimi, Curtis, Cadence and Callie Dyke

About Me

My photo
Goddard, KS, United States
I am one of the fortunate few who married my very bestfriend! Brett and I started dating when I was a sophmore in highschool, and have been together ever since! So I don't know life without Brett in it, and I wouldn't want to. He has given me so many wonderful things over our 14 years together. However the most precious are our children. I am making this blog for them. One day hopefully they will be able to get some of the joy back they have given to me by reading this!

Health Fair!

Today we went to the Heath Fair at Century II
Anyone who knows Curtis, knows this was perfect for him...
First Iggy was checked out in the ER for his broken foot
Then Curtis sat in the Eagle Med Helicopter

Then they played on the Fire Engine

Then Curtis was able to feel and watch how our lungs work

Thanks Annette for inviting us...

Curt was able to get all of his questions answered and won a
pair of scrubs!!

Fun Family Day (I know I take A LOT of pictures but they are only this size once)

Zoo Trip!

Yesterday we went to the Zoo!
This was kinda Cadies first trip, we went
last year but she was to little to have enjoyed it....
NOT this Year!!
Our membership will get its use this year...

THEY LOVED IT!!
The Herpetarium (my least favorite for obvious reasons)
The Jungle (Curt's favorite)

Tiger Trek...


I told Curtis,"If you weigh 40 lb. How much do you think the Tiger weights?"
He thinks and says, "80" Which I thought was a pretty good guess
at least he went bigger then himself, but I told him I bet it was a little more
than that to which he says, "Ok maybe 81 and a HALF!"
They are Beautiful animals!!

Our last stop was the Gorilla's which is always entertaining!!

I am beginning to deeply appreciate the simplicity of just spending time with my kids =)

FAITH, friends, and fun

We always leave Wednesdays feeeling very Tankful to be a part
of such a group of people. Our Palm Sunday video sparked quite
the conversation between Brett and I. Yet again he ended up being right!! =)
The best part of our Foundation Group is we are learning from
three very wonderful sets of parents. Who see our parenting flaws and love us
anyway =)

We made smoothies with Daddy...
Ate Pizza with our cousins...

PLAYED OUTSIDE!!

Loved on Donna and Bill ;)


Watched the squirrels eat all of our bird food...

Just sit and hold them...

Can't believe I did that.....

I HATE PUBLIC POOLS!!
Mostly due to my own self-esteem problems, but never the less I have
never willingly went to a public pool Until
Monday night...

Brett has been doing SO AWESOME with his weight loss, and
exercising at home but he wanted somewhere he could lift weights....
So I let him talk me into joiningthe YMCA. It is a VERY VERY nice facility
and I have went a few times with Brett and enjoyed it.
However when Curtis saw the froggy slide and wanted to go swimming I didn't have
the heart to tell him NO... (I wanted to)
And how could I??! Look how cute she was in a swimsuit!!
While I'm not sure public pools will ever grow on me, I LOVED being there
with my kids!
