Off Again

On the way home.  Big thank you Grandpa & Grandma for everything and a great week despite the flight debacles, the rain (which was nice), and both boys being sick.

Paul Bunyan


Jacob.....you can't swing an axe quite yet but we are impressed with your prowess as a lumberjack.  You didn't hesitate to jump in and move logs that are half your size!

Jacob and the Swing


This is the first year that Jacob has taken to the swing.  There will pretty much be no stopping him now.

Well, Delta Airlines.....

.....you couldn't have botched this trip any worse.  Mommy and Daddy will probably be having an unpleasant conversation with you very soon.  As for Noah, he is taking it all in stride.

The Lava Lamp


At Leon's house last week we had another nice find.  The original lava lamp.  We may have stumbled upon one of the best night lights that a kid could ever have!

Back to the Drawing Board



For Mother's Day, we experimented with making Red Velvet cake.....Mom's favorite.  We didn't go the easy route with Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines, we went with another brand that required a little more work.  A little more work should equal a better taste; however, that was not the case.  The cake was just OK so we will go back to the drawing board on this one and see if we can get it right and perhaps go with a different theory on cake assembly next time.

Photobomb


According to the Urban Dictionary, a Photobomb is when an otherwise normal photo has been ruined or spoiled by someone who was not supposed to be in the photograph.  We see you Jacob!

Just Kicking Back

The boys gravitated to these chairs at light speed as we exited the restaurant last Sunday.  They seemed very content just to kick back for a few brief moments.
