My Blog is Acting Wonky

Sorry...my blog and iMac are currently not friends.  They apparently had a falling out and my blog doesn't want to upload any of my pictures from my iPhoto. I am working on a fix.  Pictures of the family will be coming back soon.

Heaven on Earth DOES Exist!

I was having one of those days when I thought...I really could use a vacation.  Of course that is not happening any time soon (we are saving for our big upcoming Disney trip) but a girl can dream...
I made Dane promise me as soon as we are empty nesters, our 20th wedding anniversary (which is only 9 years from now) or if we win the lottery (whichever comes first) he has to take me to Bora Bora...at the top of my bucket list.

One of these on-the-water rooms has our name on it!











Hammock...party of 2 please!












They picnic in the water!  How cool is that?!?

Ruh Roh

Opps I fell off the blogging wagon for a little bit.  A lot has happened since the summer and now I am getting back in my groove.  Now to catch y'all up on current Walthers news...where shall I start?

Savannah Pt. 2

My lil bro, Nick and I

 Yikes...Alligators...?!?!? 

 Izzy coloring with Uncle Nick

 Ship from China bringing in some goodies to the U.S....now if only they could bring us some of our jobs back...

 Taking a stroll on the Riverwalk

 A statue/memorial of some guy...I am sure he did something really important...

 Our hotel: Marriott Savannah Riverfront and it was wonderful!!

 Savannah Belles Ferry is a water taxi that brings us to downtown from our hotel.  The best part...is the water taxis and shuttles are free!!

 Acting silly at a restaurant...don't we look like Peter Pan?

 Taking a break from the heat by stopping by the Savannah Bee Company and tasting lots of different kinds of honey.  Mmmm!  They had a cute little play area in the shape of a bee hive and the girls took their shoes off, relaxed and watched a little of the Bee Movie while we shopped.

Savannah/Tybee Island Beach Pt. 1

Hanging out in the Savannah City Market

 My favorite Southern Chef, Paula Deen and her brother Uncle Bubba

 My little brother, Nick came down to GA to visit us and we took him with us to the beach.

 By the end of the day we were had sand everywhere...literally!

 Dane's co-worker, Amy who lives in Savannah showed us around town.

 I LOVE THE BEACH!!!

Happy 11th Anniversary!!

We celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary in Savannah!  We were happy to celebrate our anniversary with our 2 wonderful daughters.

COACH DANE

Dane is the Boys Boxing Coach at Monsignor Donovan Catholic High School. He has such a great group of guys and they all really look up to Dane.  He is an awesome Coach and I am proud of him for doing this as a volunteer position to make a difference with youth.

They start and end every practice with prayer.

 All the Boxers signed Izzy's t-shirt...Izzy and Lexie both love to assist "Coach Daddy"

Lexie Piano Practice

Alexis has been taking piano lessons and doing awesome!  It is amazing how well she plays now and the best part is she loves playing the piano.

Visiting Mrs. Roberts

 Dane brought communion to Mrs. Roberts who is unable to attend mass due to a recent surgery.  The girls had a great time playing with Mrs. Roberts (Alexis' Assistant Teacher) dog Tiny and her collection of dolls.

 Autographing Mrs. Robert's cast.

 Mrs. Roberts is one of Lexie's favorite teachers!!

Nina's B-day Party

We attended my friend, Sue's daughter, Nina's birthday party at Treehouse DIY and made mobiles.  It was a cute and crafty party.

 Cute hair pins that I am going to attempt to make myself...

 My girls love arts and crafts!!!  When the Instructor pulled out the sequins and glitter...they were in heaven!

Memorial Day Block Party

We got together with several of our neighbors and blocked off our alley for a BBQ.  The kids jumped in a bounce house, went on a slip and slide and even had a bike/big wheel race.

 Our next door neighbor, Jenny (the best neighbor ever!)

 Jenny's house has all the fun toys!
