 They could play in these gopher/prairie dog holes for hours!

 New fireman pole was a hit

 We were so glad to bump into our friends there!  Here's Andrew driving his classmate Ethan.  :)

Keep the summer fun coming!

Sunday Night Concert at the Park

Pimushe 2013

 Sarah was a tad too young for a 11 hour drive, so the rest of us opted out, but my family generously took Andrew along on a week of vacation at Pimushe Lake!  He's never been gone from us for even close to that long, but sounds like he barely noticed.  These are a few pictures courtesy of my sister Chris & my Dad.  Think he had any fun?

 Yes, that is two fish on one line!

 Mom & Dad with my sibs...
we'll have to Photoshop me in the back. 

All the grandkids, minus our girls, lined up in the order they were born!  My sister Melissa designed these fun shirts for the trip & we couldn't resist.  We each have a number based on the order that we either were born or married into the family.  I'm number 8... Sarah is 44!

Thanks so much for taking good care of Andrew, everyone.  We were there in spirit.  :)

Happy Birthday, Jonathan!

 We celebrated my nephew Jonathan's 5th birthday last weekend & it was tons of fun as usual!  My sister Cara always throws a good party.

She made this awesome superhero cake.  I especially liked the flowing fondant capes on the side.  Too cool.  Jonathan was too busy running around to stop for a photo, but Andrew obliged.

 She also made each of the kids their own superhero cape!  Not out of fondant...

Thanks for a great party!  Happy Birthday, Jonathan!

Fitting right in

Sarah's a smiler, too!

1 month old

Getting big!

 Our baby girl already 4 weeks old is getting big.  Here she is taking her first bottle ever like a pro!  No fussing, crying, spitting, or scowling like her siblings.  She's awesome.

 Sarah's by no means a fan of tummy time, but she does pretty well.  For some reason the big kids LOVE it & are fabulous at reminding me to put her on the floor.  Work that neck, baby.
