Miss Independent

Evie thinks she can do everything her big sisters and brothers can. For a while, she absolutely loved to make toast. We have a toaster oven, so she learned how to use it (pretty much) herself! Funny little lady!


How she gets tall enough!

Enlisting Joe's help this time

Blue and Gold Dinner

David's Blue and Gold Dinner for Scouts was a bit ago. The boys had an opportunity to decorate a cake to share with the families that came. David had a fun time looking at cake ideas and finding just the right one for him--the foosball cake!

He was thrilled to win the certificate for Most Original. Good Job, David!




Brothers

David and Joe have always gotten along just fine, but we have noticed that as Joe gets older, the boys have found more and more ways to spend good time together.

One night Joe was even willing to let David read him his story instead of me! It truly is one of my favorite things to watch my boys become better friends.

New Back Yard!

We are loving the new back yard! I don't think we will miss the pool at all this summer. The kids have so much more room to run and play! The boys can't wait for the basketball hoop to arrive in a couple of weeks.

These pictures are the remainder of the "conversion" process. Pictures of the yard in actual use will come in time!
