Back 4 years and a Tile Party!

So, we know how much I like to use pictures to think back to past events. I especially like seeing what I was doing on specific days or anniversaries of events. I got the bug today, and so I took myself back through pictures from this time last year, in 2009, 2008, and 2007.

On this day last year, this sweet girl was 7 weeks old.
And in 2009 we were in Harrisonburg, Virginia at Eastern Mennonite University watching my brother Aaron graduate. 
In 2008, we were hanging at home, with Bryan's family here for a visit. Casey is enjoying some guy time.
And, in 2007 we were having a tile party! 
In April 2007 we still lived in Kansas City. Bryan was finishing up his 2nd year of medical school, and I was wrapping up the school year at Westridge Middle School. Our house was being built here in Wichita, and was scheduled to be ready for us to move into at the end of May. Most everything was done for us by the builder, but one way we got to have a hand in the process was by tiling the house ourselves. It was this time 4 years ago that we were here with lots of help from the family, tiling the house. Tile Party!

Shame on us for giving Debbie the dirty clean up job! :) Such a sweet person should not have to stand in dirty water. :)

Our house was done a month later. We worked hard on this project. Lucky for us we have some experts in the family. We are so thankful we had this help.

I'm trying to remember what hit me so funny about the vacuum sweeper??
I think it had too much suction for me to control! LOL!
Granna and Grandad were such hard workers, too! Great memories!
