Last of School

I got the idea for the signs from a blog "Secrets of a Super Mommy." We had a special breakfast of chocolate waffles with Reddi-Whip and fruit smoothies on the last day of school. Unfortunately, it was pouring rain!! So much for "summer" weather. Oh Well! We still played, "Oh What do you Do in the Summertime?" over and over till it was time to catch the bus.

Little person makes big mess

Why are messes cute when your one year old makes them? I walked around the corner to put something away, when I heard the cereal box open and the contents fly. Kix must feel fun on the bottom of tiny feet. Jeff thought we could just "recycle" the cereal after I swept it up...I know how much traffic this floor gets in between moppings. EEK!

Track Construction

This is the bulldozer and the bulldozer driver (one of Evan's youth leaders) who helped create his dirtbike track. Now I just need a picture of the completed track with Evan testing it out!

You are my Sunshine

Another rainy, cold day. After we did our Saturday jobs, we wandered around Wal-Mart, looking at toys to our hearts content. I found these darling baby sunglasses for Adam. Now, if we just had some sun...

Adam Learns to Mow the Lawn

A birthday gift from Grandma Jo. Thanks, Grandma. I will mow your lawn first.

Tim for Treasurer

Tim is the new Treasurer for the 5th grade K-Kids Club for the 2010-2011 school year. (It is a service club sponsored by the Kiwanis.) I wish you could see his poster better. In the corner, it says "Equal Housing Lender." I asked him why he put that on his poster. He told me it's because he's seen it at all the banks. He also put a long division problem right below that. He wanted people to know that he's good at math and he will take good care of their money.

Baby Driver

The Brothers

When we brought Adam home from the hospital a year ago, we had all the boys pose around the car seat with the teeny tiny new infant. Now, here we are celebrating his first birthday. He didn't think the cake was that great, just squishy.

Grandma Jo's New Bike

My mother-in-law is such a fun lady! This is her trying out her new bike on Mothe's day.

Adam's First Birthday/Mother's Day

Some years Adam's birthday will fall on Mother's Day. What a perfect gift!

Doctor of Pharmacy

My brother, Morgan, graduated from ISU on May 8th. We are proud of him and his cute family! Way to go, Morgan!

I'll take it

Matthew told me he had a surprise for me in his bedroom. A love note in legos! How thrilling! I'll take it anyway their precious hearts express it!
