New Version of Guitar Hero

Homemade Guitar. G3 kept shouting Rock n Roll. He has a favorite t-shirt with a guitar on it. He calls it his rock n roll shirt.

Guitar and Daddy's shoes.

I see you!

We made homemade binoculars. G3 asks do you see me as he looks through the binoculars. We have had hours of play with these.

Tribute to Nana Budke



"Most of the time what you are looking for is right in front of you"


"Its the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary"

"Take lots of pictures someday you will be glad you did"



"Being an adult can be fun when you are acting like a child"



"Your actions now create memories for later"




"we regret more about the things we didn't do than the things we did do"




"Your health is your life"







Nana passed away December 19th 2010. G3 was told that Nana went to be with baby Jesus. Every time G3 looks at the manager he looks for his Nana. I thought he had forgotten about the manager until her funeral. We were at the church and they still had the Christmas Display. G3 did role call for everyone in the manager, but there was no Nana. I told him that Nana was with baby Jesus in heaven. He told me, "okay, Nana be right back." It's so hard to explain to a 2 year old where his Nana is and why he can't see her. It's darn right unfair that she is gone. We have wonderful pictures of G3 and Nana and will forever tell him the story of Nana.

LaPizza-University City Missouri







We took G3 out of school a little early today. We did a family trip to his favorite pizza place. The owners let him have a behind the scenes look at how pizza is made while we waited for our pizza. It was like an after school special.
