...and she scores!!!


Yeah!!!  My little miss Kate scored her first goal!!  I'm so proud of her.  Way to go Kate!

My birthday present


Since we historically have moved about once a year, I alway had a fresh start on decorating the house.  Now that we've been in this home for nearly 3 years, I was starting to feel pretty antsy about the decor.  Josh agreed to let me redo the kid's bathroom for my birthday present.  I know that might sound weird, but that's the kind of stuff that I like.  Josh even went above and beyond the call of duty and put up crown molding!  I love it!

Fashion show

So Kate and Jack decided to put on a fashion show tonight.  This is how they looked when they came down to show off their hard work.
Unfortunately, they've never seen a real fashion show...
I consider this more of a comedy routine!
It's true I have given birth to two monkeys!!!
If you haven't noticed yet, Kate's my poser!

Happy 5th Birthday Jack!!!!


Happy Birthday my little man!  I can't believe you're 5 years old already!

Jack and Daddy filling out thank you cards.

Jack's Birthday Party

The Stage was set for the best Pirate Birthday ever!
Here's Jack with our emergency cake.  I originally tried to make a bomb cake with a twizzler as the fuse.  Unfortunately it looked like a turd on a string and tasted like it too! LOL  Josh was sent out early Saturday morning to locate a cake that wouldn't be a complete embarrassment!  Luckily for us, he was successful!
The hit of the party was the treasure hunt.  We hid clues all over the house and in the yard.  The kids followed the clues to the treasure that was buried in our woods.  We had taken a cooler and buried their goodie "treasure chests" and an assortment of candy inside. 
The kids couldn't get to their clues fast enough!
Here's the whole gang just before getting their treasure.





Day at the park

It's a bird, it's a plane...no!  It's Super Kate!
Here's happy, happy fun time at the park.
Jack's signature move on the "spin-dial".
Is there anyone sweeter?

Soccer

Run Jack, run!




Here's Kate and Jack at soccer.  They were about 2 inches each from scoring a goal at this game.  Maybe next time!
