Happy Birthday Carly!



My little sister Carly's Birthday is today! We celebrated yesterday with most of our family at Lagoon! Thanks Dad! We had such a great time! It was the first time that Jesse has been there since he was two and it was great to watch his excitement on every ride. James has graduated to "big kid" status, and hung out with Kait, Carly, Easton, and Collette without parental supervision. He thought that was awesome. And of course it was Tuck's first amusement park outing, and he did very well....except when he was hungry on the train and he screamed through the whole thing. But, if you feed the kid and make sure his diaper is dry, he is content to ride in his stroller or be held by Grandpa! What a cutie! Here are some pictures of our fun day!

Our Blondie Turns "5"!

Jesse and his "Lego Power Miner" cake!


As a parent, the question, "When did you get sooo BIG?" crosses your mind just about everyday. I look at Jesse and I wonder to myself, "When did his legs get that long?" "When did he stop calling me Mama?"
Time never stops, and I guess the growth of all things human continues as well. Which obviously is common knowledge, it's just shocking when you see it happening to your own kids.
Jesse turned 5 on May 11th and we had a very fun party for him at Bouncin' Off the Walls. Here are some of the cute pictures of his special night!

Catching Up!

I celebrated my 33rd Birthday with my family on April 16th! Dan went to Olive Garden and bought one of my favorite desserts...Lemon Cream cake! It was very yummy!
Danny and I celebrated our 13th anniversary with our boys on April 19th! We made a three coarse meal....this was the first....artichokes! The boys had never tried them before and I think they liked them because of the whole process of eating them and the "surprise" in the middle.



James participated in his 2nd grade poem play. He recited a poem about flying called "High Flight" written by a WWII pilot, which was very fitting since his Great Grandpa Evans was a WWII pilot! Our parents and my sisters came to watch, and it was really incredible how much information these young kids memorized. Most of them had memorized four or five poems including the Gettysburg Address! I was very impressed.

Jesse came in my room the other day, and I snapped this pic of him and Tuck! I thought it was quite precious.


Jesse took this picture of me with Tuck. Jesse loves my camera, and if I leave it where he can reach it, he is sure to sneak off with it and take pictures of very random things, like the T.V. or his foot. It's actually quite funny to look at the pictures he takes. He has a very interesting perspective on things!
