No words needed...Just feelin' the Love...

Sweet picture of Jamey and Kate! So lucky to get this one because you can never catch Jamey without him making some goofy face. I really like this one. It's how I see them. In love.

Major Briggs likes the pumpkin patch!

Wedding Planning and Soooo much fun!

AMAZING KIDS!!

Ok, I'm just gonna take the time to brag a bit here about my kids since I'm a VERY PROUD Mom!!

First, there's my son Jamey. By this picture you can see that he is ready to take on the world!

And "Taking on the World" has become his specialty. Besides owning and operating a million dollar business he has now been bestowed  the honor and elected to the "Board of Trustees" for the College of Visual Arts in St. Paul!! I never knew the direction this son of mine would take to do such amazing things with his life but I never once doubted he would do it successfully! Congratulations Jamey! We couldn't be more proud!

Then there is my lovely, and beautiful daughter Megan.

Megan most recently got engaged to the "love of her life" Josh! 

She has recently received a promotion in her career with SPS Commerce and continues to work diligently without complaint to move forward in the company. She lives in a trendy part of Minneapolis called "Uptown" and loves her independence!! 

I can hardly wait to help plan the wedding for these 2 beautiful people. Their loving hearts and devotion to family is amazing!

I'm sooo proud of you Megan!!

Now let's just see who gives this proud Mother a Grandchild first!
I'm waaaaiting! :^)

They're at it again...

These boys just love to play. Jamey decided since he has a few extra weather balloons he might just as well do the experiment again. So off it launched from near Faribault, MN. Grandpa Gale got to do the honor of launching it into the atmosphere. Here's to landing in a corn field and not a rushing river aka Mississippi. finger's Crossed and more pics later!

She Said "Yes!"

 We look forward to a long history with you Josh!
 Thanks for coming into Megan's life!
We're all the richer for it!

Such a beautiful couple!

I think Josh kinda likes Megan!

And Megan kinda likes Josh too!

So it's time to celebrate love, happiness, and a new life together.
We're sooo proud!

Absolutely fantastic "Bling". She's gonna have a hard time holding up that hand!!

Congratulations to Megan and our future "son in law" Josh!
We love you both!
