Ethan's Family Birthday Party

Ethan is 5!

It is hard to believe my baby boy is 5 years old now! I remember the day he was born as if it were yesterday. I can recall every detail vividly. Ethan looked so much like Peter even from birth. We would call him Re-Pete... You know the saying "Pete & Repeat".

Uncle Loren found some moss outside and decided it would make for good facial hair. And of course Ethan saw great Dragon Warrior, Pirate King, & Kung Fu Karate Master possibilities. So they decided to GLUE the moss to their faces (with wood glue-a carpenters choice).

Logan wanted in the the facial hair action. They are thick as theives those two. Look out here comes Double Trouble.my Momma, Me, & my girls*

Ethan and his Transformers cake with the Autobots Symbol that his Momma made for her special all grown up now Birthday Boy.

our little baby girl is growing up...

Has it been 9 months already?!?

We have been loving every moment and

can't believe how quickly that time can pass you by.

Kylee has been crawling for over a month now.

She likes pulling herself up onto the funiture.

Kylee has the Miss America wave down perfectly and loves to say Hi*

Kylee has 2 bottom ch0mpers now and is eating

a small variety of big girl foods and is loving her

newly found independance.

Gramma's got a GUN!

Look out Barack Obama,

Gramma is enforcing her 2nd amendment

right to own & bear arms.

Here is my Dad teaching his Momma

how to hold and fire a gun.

It's never too late to learn how.

Gramma is the young age of 72.

~ Don't mess with my Gramma ~

She means BUSINESS!

Grampy's Bread

Logan & Grampy

~with the bread that they made that morning~

One of my fondest memories of my childhood is of my Dad making bread. He always made the recipe his own with a little adjustment here and there. My Dad would make bread everyday @ 5am. So that when I would get up for school that morning there would be HOT fresh bread fresh out of the bread maker to make my sandwhich for lunch. The best was when Dad would make bread right before church on Sunday and set it to be ready as soon as we arrived home from church. There is nothing better than having warm bread with melted butter & honey. YUMMY!

Thanks Dad for all that you did for us then and for all that you continue to do now.

I love you the mostest! Love, Sarapie*

Jolee's Loose Tooth

the Tooth Fairy

made a stop @ our house last night

~the BEFORE picture~

It all started when she bit into an ear of corn @ the Alaska State Fair. She informed both Peter & I that she could no longer eat any more corn because her tooth was loose. I looked at her and told her to stop pulling my leg. You have only had a couple of bites and you need to finish your food. She told me she couldn't because it was going to fall out of her face. I asked if I could feel the tooth in question... and sure enough it was a little wiggly.

~the AFTER picture~

-Jolee had a loose tooth for a week & a half now-
Her tooth didn't need much persuasion to come out. It was practically hanging out of her face already! So we decided to pull it out. And she wanted to do it herself. So we let her. Jolee was so brave! She did a wonderful job!

Kylee is curious what the wet long black thing is... she wants to grab it!

Kylee loved the giraffes

The kids love this little victorian house tucked away under the giant willow tree.
They would stay and play here all day if we let them.

Jolee would love a pink and purple house of her own.

When we get home she wants to know when Daddy has plans to build one.
