Birthday Party

We had a birthday party for Dyson and Jessica this weekend. At the age of 2, birthday parties are for the parents just as much as they are for the kids. The party was held at a friends house, and we had a big birthday cake jump house. There were also tons of toys for the kids, a sand box and great food.

Hayley and Colette, you both know how to throw a party. Thank you.

Park of the Week: Arbor Hills

Today we went to Arbor Hills with our bikes and a picnic. We went around the trails on our bikes, we even went the long way up to the tower. Owen's training wheel kept getting loose and falling, so when we got back to the park, we decided to take it off. Here are the pictures from today.

Happy Birthday Dyson

We had a practice run for Dyson today. My nephew is the big 2 today. We decided to try out the cake and candles first. The "real party" will be this weekend. But here are a few pictures to start us off.

The lighting and shadows are off, but I think the pictures look pretty good.

Road Trip

Alison got to go on a visit to the farm. We met my mom at Denny's, and Ali was ready to go. Alison has her own unique sense of style. She dresses to the nines for travel. She had her red suitcase packed and a small bag for Ella, her new Baby Doll.

Swim Meet

Patrick and Hayden had a swim meet today. They both did a great job and had fun. Ali and Owen were there to cheer their brothers on.

Swim meets take a long time, we are lucky to have our canopy from our camping gear.

And of course I took tons of pictures.










Showing support for our favorite swimmers.





A little nervous before the first race.
