A Perfect Evening...

for eating popsicles.

Happy 4th Birthday Andrew!

Since we'll be on an airplane on Andrew's birthday, we decided to celebrate it a week early. After the typical Saturday morning stuff (soccer and piano) we went to the fair in Winchester. The kids had so much fun riding rollercoasters and playing games. After that we went to a favorite pizza place and then we came home to open presents and eat cupcakes.

Elisabeth was graciously offering Andrew help in opening his presents. He declined.

All he wanted for his birthday was his own LEGOs.

New Room

Ethan and Andrew finally moved into their new room. They were (and still are) really excited about it.

"Toe"

Almost every day in the summer Ethan finds a toad and it is his best friend for the day. He takes it everywhere, talks to it, pushes it on the swing, gives it wheelbarrow rides, etc.... He loves those toads. Today's victim was named "Toe" and Toe was one of the lucky ones, he survived the day.

Ice Cream

I think it's impossible for the kids to eat anything without getting it all over their face.

Harrison

Harrison has a big personality. He is quite a handful, but we love him so.

This is how he folds his arms. I told him to fold his arms because I wanted to get a picture of it and he kept waiting for us to say a prayer.

Bowling

We took the kids bowling on Saturday.

Elisabeth is eagerly anticipating her turn.

Andrew always had enough time after he rolled the ball to get back to his seat, eat a snack and then sit back and enjoy watching the pins go down.

Ethan got a strike!

We had to bribe Harrison with M&M's to keep him happy.
