Bounce House!!!

couldn't possibly get 1 pic with EVERYONE standing in it, oh well.

Beautiful Bunnells

Playing and cooking out in our back-yard, so fun to have so many cousins to play with!

These last two photos are taken by Brooks, quite nice.

Another Birfday Party!

While we were in NC in February Grandma and Grandpa threw another birthday bash for Brooksy Bob. It was a McDonald's party with all the trimmings...fries, nuggies, cake, toys, screaming kids, annoyed parents, and a cranky birthday boy!

Brooks best bud Paige, and her mommy and sis, drove all the way down from D.C. to surprise us!!



Grandma took us to the bounce-house while we were in town.





It snowed that weekend too and Brooks and Paige loved playing in it together!



Easter Egg Hunt

It was pretty dang HOT outside, so we all have beautiful rosy cheeks.

All the grand-kids

Elsie and Zoey were a little frightened by the GIANT bunny that was reaching out for them, so we had to hold them to get them in the pic.

More pics will be coming SOON.

Soccer Star!

Brooks went to a little soccer "practice" yesterday with a couple of his little friends.

He did SO well. He listened and followed directions like an allstar!

Here they are playing red light green light and they have to put their foot on the ball when it's a red light.

We got him a lightning McQueen soccer ball and some cool new "soccer" shorts that he wanted to put on as soon as we got home from the store.

He was so tired afterward from all the running and kicking, but he had so much fun!

Happy 3rd Birthday Brooksie!

For Brooks' Birthday we had a few friends over for a Thomas Extravaganza Party!!

We played trains, watched Thomas and the Day of the Deisels (while eating popcorn ofcourse) took turns driving around on Thomas, played in the Thomas tent, painted Thomas pictures, played trains some more, ate lunch, and decorated Thomas Cookies!! Then on his actual Birth-Day we opened lots of Thomas presents, ate some cake, and played video games with Dad!

I realize these pictures are completely out of order, but you get the idea.

A.J. was loving driving Thomas around.

Carver had tons of FUN with all the trains!

pretty sure Brooks didn't even take one bite....oh well.

lunch time

Climbing around inside the new Thomas tent!!

Where's Brooksie?

Brooks told Zoey it was time to take a nap, and she LOVES to play along!

He seriously can't get enough TRAIN TIME!

The obviously home-made cake...awaiting the suprise train that was going to show up right before we lit the candles. Brooks kept bringing me trains to put on the cake all day long....and singing "Happy Birthday to me" ALL DAY.

Stanley arrived!!

All the grandparents were "there" singing right along, technology is so amazing.

Love this Boy.

S'mores

Our lovely friends, the Taylors, invited us out to their house for some s'mores. It was a perfect night to hang out around the fire, and the kids loved it too!

No, Zoey is NOT really on fire.
