where did i leave off . .

i can't remember and i haven't slept much since then, so i am just going with what i can remember.  opa finally made it!  no more of those pesky icelandic volcanoes to get in our way, instead this time it was mechanical issues at the lubbock airport.  but he made it and got to meet audrey.  i would have that picture but it was on the hard drive that fried.  :(  so sad!  so i am picking up where my camera picked up!  here are the most recent pictures and i shall tell you there story - enjoy!

we went to visit j.e., megan, and the kids for a few days.  

so here we have j.e. (my brother) he had a massive head injury

sadly, you can't tell any difference with him

as the family grows oma's hands get more full!

liam at the bundy drive in (who doesn't love the drive in)

oma and opa with grandkiddos!!  they were in heaven!

we had everyone over to our house.  so we also decided to thaw out liam's birthday cake that we never got to eat.  liam's party was postponed for many reasons 1) icelandic volcanoes 2) gallbladder surgery and 3) ear infections

aunt kristi came to visit and the snuggling ensued!

ros and bob came out for their texas reception.  but before the reception we had to get together more informally.  for bob that meant showing us a different side of him while playing games!  we partied like we were in college and then were miserable the next morning.  we are not as young as we used to be.

liam and g.g. had a great time at the reception.  they had a competition to see who could get the dirtiest in the shortest amount of time.  it was a tie in the end.

audrey's room is finally finished and all the guests have moved out!  i love her room.  it just makes me smile whenever i walk into it.

here is the other wall.  the colors are bright and cheery, but not too bright!  she is finally sleeping in her own room and really loving it.  she is sleeping between 6 and 8 hours at a time!

audrey in an adorable outfit that the lee's from san antonio sent her!  

i just though she looked gorgeous in it! 

liam had his first swim lesson today!  it was great.  he loves water and he loves to splash, but actually kicking and blowing bubbles we re going to have to work on.  we will see how he does the next two weeks! 

summer is in full swing at the byars' house!!  we are excited about the time off with the kiddos and hopefully some sleep.
