Fire Trucks!







As everybody who knows Jake knows- he is obsessed with firetucks! A friend form high school, James, owns a firetuck business in Brindley Mountain. A few weeks ago, Laurie, Paula and I took our 3 year olds to visit. Billy, Paula's husband, works there also and showed the boys around. They were all in heaven! They got to ride in a firetruck and Billy even let them talk on the speaker! If you look closely at the pic of the firetuck, you can see all 3 boys riding in it! Thanks so much Mr. Billy and Mr. James- Jake will come see you about a job in a few years! We can't wait until Evan moves back to Huntsville- Henry, Evan and Jake are going to have some fun growing up together- just like their moms!

Rhys is 1!







Rhys turned one on August 7th! WOW! The year has flown by so fast. It is hard to believe that she has been a part of our family that long- it seems like just yesterday we met her for the first time!She has changed all of our lives and it is hard to remember life without her. A daughter is a wonderful blessing and we have thanked God for her everyday- even Jake does! She celebrated in typical Manifold style- the celebration lasted for a week! Enjoy the pics!



The Beach







I am a little slow I know. Things have been CRAZY!!! Here are a couple of pics from our beach trip with the kids. The one of the men in my life is priceless! Rhys tried to eat the sand and Jake is not a fan either- therefore, we did alot of swimming! We are hoping to get back in October- maybe more pics then!
