A RUN to Remember.......


Today I was lucky enough to participate in a historical event...the 10th annual Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon (I only ran the half). April 19, marked the 15th anniversary of this tragic event where 168 innocent women, men, and children lost their lives for NO REASON!! This run signifies life, and it is an honor to be a part of it!


FINISHERS!!!!

A trip down the yellow brick road......

Kade and I had a couple hours to ourselves yesterday while the girls had a soccer game and a birthday party to attend! So, we decided to run over to Wamego, KS to visit the OZ museum. This was an "over the rainbow" moment for Kade, as he has seemingly become obsessed with the WIZARD OF OZ. And, for those of you that have seen my son with his Ruby Red shoes on around town-my apologizes!!!!!

Kade playing soccer OR is he???

Kade is trying to learn the game of soccer and had his 2nd game this week. Not quite sure if he has a knack for this sport. Frankly, I just want him to burn some energy off! Regardless .....the kiddo scored 2 goals. One for his team, and one for the other team-I LOVE THIS age!

Happy Easter from the Gillam Family

"If Easter says anything to us today, it says this: You can put truth in a grave, but it won't stay there. You can nail it to a cross, wrap it in winding sheets and shut it up in a tomb, but it will rise!" Clarence W. Hall

Kade turns 4!!!!


Kade turned 4 years old on March 24th! WOW did time fly. We brought baseball cupcakes to preschool on Wednesday. Kade definitely let everyone know that he was "NOT" 3 anymore, but he was "4", and all grown up! I Love this little Boy!!!

Kade starts SOCCER!!


My little man started soccer this past week! I am not sure who is going to work harder...Kade or his coach James. At least he can burn off some serious energy during this sport...and that definitely works for Mom (insert smile)!!!

Our FAVORITE cousins...Lily and Jack

We were able to drive to Southwest Colorado during our Spring Break trip to visit our favorite (and only) cousins Lily and Jack. The kids had a blast together, visiting brand new baby goats, hot tubbing, and playing dress up. Scott and I loved the Pierson's hospitality...thanks Shelly and Gary for a wonderful time...wish we lived closer to you!
