A taste of b-day fun!

Just a few shots from Sat. and Zoe's birthday cinamon rolls on Thursday. Grant wasn't loving the camera, but Max was!

The Big Run

There has been quite a bit of excitement around here since Zoe turned 5 on Thursday, but the most exciting event for the Birthday boy, Quinn, occurred Sat. afternoon at his football game. He loves playing flag football, and his team hasn't been able to muster much offense this season until the 3rd to last play on Sat. The person holding the camera got a little excited too, so you can't see that he made it about 3 feet from scoring before someone snagged his flag. Zoe, also scored her second goal of the season, this video is from a couple weeks ago...we haven't gotten the goals on video. Many more pictures and videos from the B-day events will be coming soon!

Thanks for all the calls and presents!!

Been a long time since Mommy added any pictures and videos, and we've had a busy summer. Some of this may be out of order. This looks like our camping trip this summer. Quinn and I were master grillers and Mommy said it was the best hot dog ever! Quinn won free tickets at the Sky Sox game for throwing the fastest in his age group. Daddy said his wind up reminded him of the Mad Hungarian.

The first grader

Here he is...all ready for first grade. So far things have gone well at school. As hard as it is to believe, he is still VERY well behaved according to everyone I ask. Zoe loves her new bike and was riding all around tonight. We are off to get to bed early tonight..this morning we were all a little tired and grumpy.

Love you!

She keeps getting bigger and bigger....

Zoe has been involved in some"big girl" events this summer. I know many of you have already seen her ride her bike with out training wheels, which she mastered in two days. She also has stopped sucking her thumb and needing her blanky (well, 98% of the time- she only needs it in great times of stress). We went out to celebrate at her favorite restaurant, Panda Express and then to Marmaduke. And finally all her years of taking care of Shayla, Fayla, Kyroo and all the other babies is paying off as her new cousins are arriving. Max and Peaches will be well cared for when Zoe is around. Hopefully I can get caught up and get out some more summer highlights soon!

Rocky Dogs!

I am way behind updating this blog...but will try to catch up this week. Here are the kids with Grandpa at the Rockies game over Father's day weekend. You can see everyone had a great time, and the Rockies won!

Sky Sox

We went to our first Sky Sox game last week and we got to sit right next to the dugout. Zoe and I each got a ball from the manager, he said I had to be nice to my sister and keep the mustard off my face when I eat hot dogs. How did he know I have trouble with both of those requests? There were some Rockies playing down here that day. Dexter Fowler is batting behind me and that is Houston Street behind me signing the ball, he signed my ball first and I got a bunch of other autographs. It was hot, but it was an awesome day at the ball park!
