Devin's Birthday Party

Devin turned four and had four sparklers on his cupcakes to celebrate. His cousins which are visiting from Nevada helped plan a fun party for him. While he was out hiking in the woods with dad the rest of us came up with a treasure hunt with clues, a balloon stomping game, and wrapped presents. The one bad thing about using sparklers--very hard to blow out.

Mohawk Man

Taylor has been working hard ever since school let out to grow his hair out. I finally said, "enough", and cut it, but for a day he got to wear his hair in a mohawk like he's always wanted. It measured 2 1/2 inches.

Poison Ivy Attack

Even with one eye, Devin is still playing video games. He got a nasty case of poison ivy from the cat and could only see through one eye for two days. Poor Boy!!

He also had it on his neck, arms, and belly. He's now done with his steroids and looks much better.

Trampoline Fun

So I lost my diaper, that's not stopping my fun!

Jumping with Uncle Jesse at grandma's house. They love playing on the trampoline and swimming in the pond.

Birthday and Fireworks

My DH turned 30!!! I got him a cell phone of his very own. I think he was probably the last person on earth that didn't have one and I was tired of not being able to get a hold of him. Hmmm, maybe that's why he didn't have one, how curious? The boys wanted to get him a nunchuck Wii controller so they could box against him. How cute! Is that like when you buy your sister the barbie you've been dying to own so you can play with it. Very sneaky, boys!

My little pyro, but I can't blame him since I almost burned my cabin down at girl's camp with a box of matches and an off candle. I wonder where he gets it?

Trying to spell their names in the air.

Fireworks the night before the fourth which was probably good since it ended up raining all day up at the lake. I still swam with the kids even though it was cold and rainy; it's tradition, but I didn't swim all the way across the lake and back like I did on Father's Day. It was a little too cold for that and I am 38 weeks pregnant. Give a girl a break.

"We've all got Daddy's Nose"

After dinner one night last week the kids learned some crucial dining table ettiquette from their dad. What a talented bunch of boys I have!
