"man cold"

thursday nights...

thursday night's are special nights. i usually have some kind of scrapbooking class on thursday nights, so the kids go to papa and sam sam's house for dinner, soaky and sleepover. sam sam always tries to do some kind of cooking with miles, because he loves it so much. on this particular thursday sam sam had everything ready to make homemade pizzas. he had a blast and maisy loved eating the final product. i am so glad the kids have all these special memories with their grandparents.

a day at the lake...

the weekend we celebrated maisy's 2nd birthday the boys + jody headed to lake lopez. papa had just had the boat fixed and wanted to take it out for a test run. as you can see mr. miles likes to be captain of the ship. david says he is super serious when he's driving. this didn't surprise me, that's just miles. i guess at one point he was doing donuts, and cut it a little to sharp and almost threw everyone out of the boat. of course miles thought that was hilarious.

my "baby" is growing up so fast. i am glad he has no fear of trying new things, and that he enjoys life to the fullest... ahh... to be 5 again.

backyard photo fun...

the weather was beautiful, and maisy was wearing a tutu, i had to pull the camera out and do a little photo shoot. these were some of my favorites.  maisy is ALWAYS on the go, and it is so hard to get a picture of her smiling.

celebrating birthday #2... what a great day!

we had fun celebrating maisy's birthday today. nana was her to celebrate with us, and she took us all out to lunch at the loading dock, yummy. when we got home from lunch miles and i made maisy's birthday cake. it came out cute, but i need a little more practice. when maisy got up from her nap we got her ready for her "party". grammy and grandad  even got to sing happy birthday to maisy via skype. that was really special. maisy kept looking at them and even tried to feed them cake, too cute. she loved her magnetic dress up doll from uncle stephen, auntie amanda and aidan. but her favorite gift by far was the guitar she got. she loved playing it and kept saying guitar hero... saturday we get to celebrate again with papa, sam sam auntie jody and bryan.
