The BIG Party

We always throw a great big party for

Elaina and Shooter with friends and family.

We borrowed a big slide and the kids had a blast.

Shooter had a volcano cake and Elaina had

a buttterfly cake. We had food and lots of fun.

Compliments of Skyler, Aaron and Grandpa

every one got wet...some (chelsea) more than

others.

Learning to ride

Elaina got a bike for her Birthday. It is really cute, I want one like it. We live on kind of a hill so we headed over to the school and daddy taught her to ride. She picked it up really quick.

Elaina's Eighth Birthday

Elaina Had a great Birthday we went to the museum of natural history. Then later we went to dinner at TGIF, she has great taste, with grandpa and grandma Stauffer. Then we went home for more cake and ice cream. She had a great day and her favorite thing was her bike and learning to ride it with daddy.

We Love Swimming. We borrowed Carol and Brad's Jet ski and headed up to the lake. We had a ton of fun out on the lake in the jet ski and playing on the beach in the sand...ayden only ate a little bit of sand. Even Shooter got out in tha water and on the jet ski. You wouldn't know it from the pictures, but Chelsea and Ryan came and so did Shaina Leland and Orynn. I can't wait to get out there again.

Shooter's Birthday!!

We love birthdays! For shooters birthday he wanted a cake with berries, funny boy would not eat any though. He was too busy building lincoln logs and playing with his thomas action canyon toy. He was so excited to get that toy because santa ran out of them at christmas. He is excited for his big water party that is coming up, but I think he had just as much fun at this party. he wanted a picnic of chinese food for dinner, so out doors with our chinese take out we went. We love to party with shooter, he gets so excited.

Ayden turned One

Happy Birthday Ayden. We had a cowboy birthday he had a horse cake to share and a cowboy hat cake just for him. He wanted to grab the candle, so after trying to get him to blow elaina and shooter blew it out for him. then once we gave him the cake he tried to lick it. He mostly ate just frosting, then when he was done he tried to puch the whole thing on the floor. He got a haul of presents, but he was not all that interested in opening them he wanted to crawl around and visit instead (we jammed a big crowd in the house). After everyone left the sugar rush hit and he crawled back and forth through the house chasing Elaina and Shooter laughing his head off. It was a really fun party...thanks family.

Summer is finally here

We have been So ready for summer to finally come. So finally the rain stopped, and I thought watermellon would feel good on Elaina's sore throat. We all loved having some watermellon YUM.
