Geary County Children's Choir school tours

Blayne is in The Geary County Children's Choir this year. They were able to travel around to several schools in our area this week and sing. He had a great time on the bus in-between visits and loved being "school excused" for the day. We are looking forward to a trip to Branson Missouri with the choir at the end of May!

Military Ball at JCHS

Bryce and Wyatt attended the JROTC Military Ball for Junction City High School at The Riley Conference Center on Fort Riley, Kansas. Bryce's date was Cadet Zachariah Shope and Wyatt (Cadet J. Wyatt McKinney)'s date was Alyssa Strahl. They had a great time!

Prom 2012

Bryce was able to attend her Junior Prom on April 14th. She had her make-up done and then had dinner and a great evening with her date (Zach Shope) and the group of kids that they attended the dance with. I cannot believe that our little girl is growing up so fast!

Meet Izlei Mae!

My niece Cassidei had a beautiful baby girl in May. They named her Izlei and I have not been able to meet her until this past weekend. The kids and I met Dan (my step-dad), Cassidei and the baby in Colorado. They met us half way between where we are in Kansas and Cedar City,so that my kids could spend some time in Utah....needless to say Izlei was THE STAR OF THE SHOW! I still cannot believe that I am a great-aunt (it sounds SO OLD!!) I look forward to getting to spoil her!!!.

OK I have been trying to post on our blog for about 6 months and everytime I do it DOES NOT WORK! Help!!!!

A Day in the Life.....Summer @ the McKinneys

Believe it or not these pics were taken while we were at the dentist office...there is neVEr a dull moment with our family. Bryce and Aydan had friends along while Blayne and Aydan had work done at the dentist (Blayne 2 cavities and Aydan 3).
Bryce and her friend Zach enjoyed time in the massage chairs, although, it sounded more like they were being tortured than relaxing. All in all the time passed quickly and we even scored Smash Burger meals for the boys!

Wyatt's 8th Grade Promotion Ceremony

Wyatt completed the 8th grade this year and will begin high school! I

it does not seem like long ago he was entering kindergarten. He is

still quiet and smart. I love that he is growing up to be such a great

person. I know the sky is the limit with this kid and I am proud to be his mom!
