A Family Chuck E Cheese Night!

When everyone is home, it's tradition to go out one night to do something...like bowling, or miniature golfing. With four children 3 yrs and younger, these options just didn't sound like "fun," so we tried a Chuck E Cheese night and it was a success. The little kids (and the big kids) went from one game to the other with their tokens and tickets! Fun, Fun!

Kayla is just having fun sitting on the jet ski!


Ryan and Lisa trying their skill shooting baskets.

I love it when the parents help their children have fun. This time I think Stephen was have more fun!

Ryan was trying to swat the flies with the swatter. Another fun game!

More Graduation!

Before it was time to leave for Ryan's graduation, Great Grandma Varner got some special time with Kayla and Henry!

Freya, Henry, Stephen, and Max. At this point we didn't know it was a 2-hour ceremony!


Rebecca and Stephen (with a fresh haircut...oh, wait....I guess you can't tell with his cap on, can you :)

Afterwards it was a quickie at McDonald's! Can't beat it!

I think Grandpa has his hands full!

Congratulations, Ryan!

Ryan graduated from Topeka High School May 17. Where has the time gone? It seems like yesterday I took a picture of Lisa in this same spot as she graduated and she was holding Ryan who had just finished kindergarten.

Grandma & Grandpa Varner were able to come for the ceremony. Sorry....I didn't realize it would be two hours long!


The night before, Ryan had a graduation party at Rebecca and Steve's. Ryan and Rebecca got really ambition and we had grilled kabobs, hamburgers, and hotdogs. Thanks, Steve for standing by the grill all evening. It was lots of fun seeing old friends and celebrating.

Ryan complete with his graduation lei.

Bryan, Ryan and Rebecca!
