Mother's Day flowers

Micah planted these flowers in a little pot for me at the end of last year for Mother's Day. He said he picked these out because he knew I would like two different kinds of flowers. :) They have grown so well and are so pretty...I had to get a picture of him with them! So sweet!

The big camping trip

Micah and Dad went camping at Potato Creek State Park this last weekend. They had to sleep in the back of the van due to the thunderstorms, but they had great weather right up until bed time. There was alot of food that was eaten, (they wouldn't even tell Mom what they had, but I know that Micah ate peanut m&m's for breakfast!) and alot of shooting aerosoft guns....lots of fun!

Big present

Ailie's big present was a play kitchen and all the things a girl needs to cook with...pots and pans, hot pads, an apron and pretend food. She's been cooking up a storm! I think Laci likes it as much as she does. :)

Eating bean beans

Ailie got all the jelly beans except one off one whole side of the cake in one swipe while we sang "Happy Birthday" to her. She didn't eat one bite of the cake, just the candy :)

Happy 2nd Birthday to Ailie!

Here's Ailie's birthday cake that Mommy made for her 2nd birthday. There wasn't really a cartoon character that Ailie's really into, and the only thing we could think that she really loves is candy; specifically, "bean beans" (jelly beans), so.....we went with a Candy Land themed cake.

Getting big too fast!

It seems like it was just yesterday that we were celebrating his first birthday and now he's 10 already....it's going by too fast! We wouldn't trade one minute of the time we've had with Micah. He is our adorable big boy!

Micah's 10th Birthday Party!

Micah had his big 10 yr birthday party this year. He wanted an army theme with the main event being a Dads vs sons capture the flag game. We started out with a football game, a cookout of brats and hotdogs and then had the capture the flag game and a quick game of kickball before we opened presents and had cake. It was such a fun day and even though it was supposed to thunderstorm, the weather turned out perfect!
