toys galore....and the walker

When we decorated for Christmas, Ben decided to give Braden an early X-mas by bringing out all of the big baby toys. Man, I love my young children, but a little part of me can't wait until the toys go away! Braden loves his walker. He knew how to operate it the second he got in it! He cruises all around our kitchen now and is even trying to get into cabinets. Yikes!
Of course, Evan has to try out all of Braden's new gadgets.




Dad's 60th Birthday party & Evan's 1st time bowling!

My mom planned a great surprise party for my dad. We invited a bunch of family and friends to go bowling on Saturday night. Although it was passed our boys' bedtimes, we decided to venture out and let Evan try bowling for the first time.

As one would guess, he got plenty of gag gifts. This jacket stole the show!


Evan was telling us to "stop bowling!" until someone gave us the ramp for him to try. From then on, he loved it!



Braden's 1st Thanksgiving & Papa's 60th Birthday!

Yep...my dad tunred the big 6-0 on Thanksgiving this year. My mom prepared a delicious gluten free meal, and we were able to spend the whole day together. It was wonderful! Thanks, Mom and Dad!



Here is Ben teaching his boys how to play "Chopsticks."










Laundry is fun!
