Quin's 12th Birthday Party

Jon had us over to help celebrate Quin's birthday party...We had Chili Pile Up with salsa and guacamole... YUM!!

Jon took a sewing class with his friend Jared.  He made this bag and placemat.  Way To Go Jon!

Then we had the birthday cake...

With Trick candles, of course...Quin was sweet to let the boys help him blow out the candles.

Ilee liked helping extinguish those crazy candles...

Sweet Grandma and Grandson...

We got Quin a football with it's own little pump and kicking stand.  Cody liked trying to figure out how to pump it up.

The boys playing up in the loft.

Before we left, Jon gave me a pack of gum.  I shared some with the boys.  All the way home, Cody would say, "Yum! Mom, Yum!"

And then he'd put it on his nose.  He thought he was pretty funny...

Thanks for a fun night!

ICE CREAM in April

Mike's replacing our bathroom window...We're changing it from a smoked glass to a clear glass.

The boys are enjoying a late night snack...everyone's favorite...ICE CREAM!

 March 20th snow again...just a little dusting...This will be the first year in several that we didn't lose power during the winter for some duration.

 The dafodills were so pretty in our front yard welcoming everyone to our home.  Cody loved these flowers so much that he had to pick them....I guess now we have to wait till next year for the next batch.

 A tired day.  I just love how Cody likes to snuggle up to Decker and Decker usually lets him.

More ICE CREAM for the Cookie monster!
