Elsie's 9th Birthday

Elsie was pretty excited about her Panda bear theme this year.
We love having six of our seven birthdays in the summer months however no slip and slide parties this year. Too wet and cold. Buts still lots of ice cream and cake.
Elsie is growing up way too fast. She loves writing stories, songs and drawing cartoon like illustrations. She is very concerned about the welfare of the world and those living in it. She has just recently started her own campaign to save the Polar Bears. She has great plans and dreams to fulfill. Good luck and we love you Elsie!

Kian's 4th Birtday

Please notice the attempt at the spidy cake,
the frosting turned out pink but Kian reassured
me that he liked pink so all was well. Kian had
a great birthday, we enjoy having him around to
mix things up a bit. I always get cracked up about
the things he does and says, falling down simply turns into
some cool move and he sayes "awesome" or "I did't
see that coming"! He loves hanging with dad any chance
he can get, and I love to see the two of them together!
Kian is our awesome superhero! He gets big thrills when
I have him do a task and say he's saved the day!

Caitlin's Turn

Do you see an Olympic swimmer in there?

See, I told you I saw a bear!

Myra finally downloaded her pics from her camera, I was surprised at what I found. Lots of silly photo shoots with kids, goofy stuffed animals and various things through the life of an 11 year old. I was pleased to know that someone else is around to help capture another side of our family album photos. Good work Myra. I started noticing a trend with Kian and funny faces!

This was a nice evening at the beach for the kids, about 8:30-9pm. Thank you, Heath!
