Lucas #1 Birthday


We had a cute little party for Lucas on Sunday. Some of our neighbors came over to play. Lucas opened presents first cause Garrett couldn't wait another second for him to open the elephant that shoots balls out its nose. Garrett helped with wrapping gifts, making cupcakes and even cleaning up the room and blowing up balloons. Lucas loved it. And so did I.
Yummy Cake!!!

The chaos that was playing with the new toys and friends.
Mommy teaches Lucas the finer points of opening presents and of course making sure that the older kids let Lucas play with it first before sharing.

Can you believe how fast a year goes by?!?

Spud Day


Thanks to Dad and Julie for meeting up with us to enjoy Spud day this year. We watched a parade and ate way to much candy. Spent forever in line for some fair food. Looked at booths and paid for one expensive train ride. Some of my favorite parts of the day that I didn't get pics of include. The airplane dropping ping pong balls. Garrett's face lighting up at the simplest things. No pics of Dad or Julie??? Where did they go? Here are pics of the other stuff.


There is a pic of me and my cheer squad on the border in the grocery store in Shelley, Id. I had to see it myself.
Garrett picked the train ride over the pony ride. Even though I tried to get him on the horse.
Mark checking out the livestock.
Garrett didn't like his corn dog but Lucas loved it, much to my surprise. I didn't even think his teeth could handle the meat part but he ate it all gone.
