Sammy's 4th

By -
Sammy turned four on April 29. He had such a fun day. He got to go to the store and pick out a present with Grandma Beckie, then they went to lunch together. Then I took him and Kimball to see Monsters vs. Aliens. He was scared through most of it, but can't wait to see it again. Then we went to Chuck E. Cheese. I hadn't been to Chuck E. Cheese in ages. It was so much fun. We stayed until it closed at 9pm. We all loved it. Here are some pics.

Hi from Julie from the uk,
I can't believe how much Sammy has changed since you left the uk last year.

I love to read your blog & see how Kimball & Sammy are doing.

luv from

Jenni,

I did have a million people there to help me with my children. Otherwise it would have been stressful.

There is no better place to celebrate a birthday as a child than at Chuck-E-Cheese. I wish we lived closer so we could have joined you. My kids think that place is as cool as Disneyland. Me, I wouldn't go that far!

Happy Birthday to a darling little fella!

Chuck E. Cheese & Hannah's Arm

First, my apologies for the not so great pictures at Chuck E. Cheese.  I'm still trying to figure out photography indoors without a great flash. Man, Chuck E. Cheese has been around forever.  I remember going there when I was a kid.  In fact, I just remembered that I have a picture of my sister's birthday party from there.  I think I was 10 or so at the time.  (I'm on the right, my friend Katie on the left.) I'm pretty sure that is the very same Chuck E. Cheese that my kids just went to last week.  How scary is that? Anyway, Clark's brother had a deal for food and what seemed like a million tokens at Chuck E. Cheese, so he wanted to take my kids.  Our nephew was in town as well, so it was a good time for my kids to spend time with him. Here are a few pics from that night: Sammy at the wheel.  My kiddos with Uncle Andy and cousin Zander.  Zander, Kimball, and Sammy  Addi Joy  Kimball's really into basketball lately.  He...

Catch Up, Part 2

These events aren't in chronological order. They're just in the order of the way the pictures uploaded to the post. House & Yard: After four years of living in this house, we've finally gotten around to finishing the yard. We built this house, so we had to start from scratch. We were doing a little at a time. Every year when we'd get our taxes back, we'd do something big on the yard. This year we decided to bite the bullet and just get the rest finished, and I am so glad we did. We had grass in the back, but that was it. No fence, no playground, no trampoline, no borders, no patio. Here's what the back of the house looked like before: We knew we always wanted a deck, so we finally had our neighbor build us one. When it was almost finished, our boys didn't like to go out on the deck because their feet got too hot (it's west facing). So we decided to have our neighbor add a roof to the deck. We are so glad we did. He did an awesome job and it looks gr...

Family Pictures

The last time we got our family pictures taken was over three years ago when Sammy was a baby. Needless to say, we were overdue. Haley Warner took our pics, and I think they turned out darling. I'm just sad she's no longer taking family pictures after this year. Here's a sneak peek at how they turned out. To view all of them, you can visit our smugmug site :
