Hoping this is a good sign!

Love my nerdy Tiger! Way to rock the 8am class!! 🐯❤️👊🏼

Ride home was rough, too many bumps in the road! She's wiped out.

IV is out! Ready to go home! Ok mom is ready, we will see how she does.

Fishie

Fisher

Kate's fish friend at the hospital. It was the only way to get her up and walking to go visit him!

No surgery for Wil! Yippee!! Still bummed about missing season but it is still good news!

She did great, finally got some rest.

going into surgery

Very rough and long night! Cops injured, bad guys brought in strapped to bed and taken away in handcuffs... Car accidents and code blue, got us to our room about 2:30 and pain meds and asleep at 3:00am, doc was there at 5:30am... Surgery pushed back until 12:10! Phew, long day already

Monday is turning into an even tougher night. Kate is having her appendix removed in the morning.

Sunday night was a rough night of puking for Kate and very little sleep.

First day of classes at Mizzou today for this sophomore!

Wil and Maddie at Lindbergh's first football game... Broken finger and all.

And then...broken finger.

Green and gold night...Wil on far right

First day slid school !! Kate is a senior and Wil a sophomore...

Cutest girl at Mizzou!

Kate playing soccer in Chicago ⚽️❤️

Day 2 and day 3... She's exhausted and excited (ok maybe not excited about a 5:40am alarm ;) Today she starts to narrow down her choices of a sorority house. Although those of us who know and love her, know without a doubt that she will change the lives of the people in the house that chooses her... It is nerve racking none the less to put yourself out there and be judged... Keep doing you Kristen... Much luv 😘

Open house was a success... Luv notes and candy put in lockers ❤️

Rough start to the day with 40 minute commute because of flooded out roads and emergency vehicles responding to idiots who drive through flooded roads.

Clean room and her whole life packed up and ready to go back to MIZZOU! Kristen Josephine ❤️🐯

First day of recruitment! Good luck Kristen! ❤️

Dorm room is smaller if that is possible...but in center of campus, so it's a win.

She's officially back at Mizzou.

Hanging with Uncle Chris

Hannah learning a back dive today!

Wil and his high school soccer team at the STLFC game tonight! ❤️⚽️

Great soccer game by Kate this morning! Wish I would have taken a picture! Kristen was plenty annoying cheering her sister on!

Serious Olympic memory, hanging at a packed bar when suddenly everyone starts cheering for USA women's swimming and then chanting USA! Goosebumps and a world record!

Always a good time!

Last dinner with the college girl

Sunday Funday

Kate, Kate, and Taylor at yet another senior summer birthday party!

Date night! $1 oysters and shrimp, yum!
