Graduation

All the boys happened to match real well at the graduation. It made for a good photo-op while we waited.

Taylor's Graduation

Taylor was Salutatorian at her Graduation. We are very proud of her. She is a smart, talented, sweet, good girl. Can't wait to see what her future holds for her. I'm sure it will be great. Good Luck at college!!!

Texas Snow Cones

One of our favorite things to do in Texas is get snow cones. It was hotter there than here this year so it made them even better.

Road Trip 2011

Four Adults, 7 Children, 16 hours, 1 motorhome. What a Blast. We loaded up in Grandma Jeanne and Grandpa Rick's motorhome and headed to Texas for cousin Taylor's graduation. We made the trip in one day. The kids did soooo much better than expected. We were all surprised. We had lots of activities for them to do and we did stop for 1 hour at lunch to let Grandpa nap and play at a park. Every single kid took a nap afterwards which is a great feat in and of itself. Grandpa was a great sport too. We just kept him filled up with lots of snacky foods and diet pepsi's.

Dad

Down and Derby

Well, if you've ever watched the movie "Down and Derby" you should. Just don't let your husband!!!! Who would of thought, a pinewood derby track in the living room. It looked like a bomb exploded in my living room for days. The mess drove me crazy. I guess that's what happens when you live with 4 little boys and 1 big boy.

New Shirts

I love making Erik new shirts. I buy plain old t-shirts for a buck or two and fix them up. It's a great way to use fabric scraps and felt. I LOVE felt!! I'm not sure why the lightning McQueen car had to be in all the pictures. I guess it's a boy thing.

Happy President's Day!!

I made the boys t-shirts of the Presidents from Mt. Rushmore for President's Day this year. Mikey has one too. Not sure how he missed out on his picture. You can tell which ones like to have pics taken and which ones tolerate it.

A Knight Out on the Town!

We took the boys to the Excalibur for dinner at Knights of the Roundtable. They had a great time!! We took the older three when they were younger but we had to cheer for the bad knight. That didn't go over real well. This year we cheered for the knight from Hungary. My parents came with us. They watched the boys faces more than the show.

Happy Birthday

This is the birthday cake my husband bought for me. I woke up to this and flowers on the table. He is so awesome. The boys have never been more excited for my birthday.
