Birthday Celebration

Yesterday we celebrated Brian's 36 birthday!!! It was a great relaxing day starting off with a deluxe breakafast here at the house fit for a king. Then we went to church, read the paper while the kids had their afternoon nap and then for supper we met Brian's parents for supper at the SmokeyBones Restaurant. It was so delicious! We had a great day as a family together for his birthday!

Demolition Saturday

Home improvement time!
Today the boys starting tearing apart the porch. We had water and mold issues along the bottom of the wall and around the window.

Kaden was very eager to 'help' daddy!!! As always he likes to make sure that the job is level.

The boys are always under Brian's feet. Ethan is a little distressed here as the sheet rock dust 'snows' on him. Not to worry..........

....Kaden the super-vaccumer to the rescue. "I'll help you brother!" This unfortunately only made matters worse. Good thing it was the end of the day.

It was a good time to go inside and relax! Next week the project will continue.

Happy Birthday in the Land Down Under!

Birthday wishes to my sister who has enjoyed celebrating her birthday for 28 years on V'day. I realize that Valentines Day isn't till tomorrow....but she is actually celebrating today because she lives in Australia! Have a wonderful birthday Jen!

To The Pocono's We Go

This past week we took a family vacation and headed to the Great Wolf lodge in the Poconos. We were also blessed to have Brian's parents join us for the trip.

While the weather was chilly outside, we enjoyed a nice 84 degrees in the waterpark. The kids had a bast going down the water slides.......

Enjoyed the endless amounts of splashing and spraying water......
Took some time to chill....
And then of course Kaden's favorite was soaking in the hot tub!

We had an incredible time of fun, laughter, relaxation...and then of course picking on Pops! (For a man who claims he never sleeps, he sure can SNORE!). We adults also got to enjoy the various tube rides. (We'll just stick to pictures of the kids!!!!!) We were all exhausted.

See you next year Great Wolf Lodge!
