Little Boys Grow Up

Rachel's Birthday Party

The birthday girl! (The camera loves her!)

We had her party at the Prescott zoo. Very fun.


Guess whose baby blues?

Matching sisters.

Zoo/Madagascar Motif.

Little Stinker

We were joined by the beautiful Sloan family along with many other great friends.

Make a wish!

Fun was had with goodie bag gifts.
Happy fifth dear one.

Grandma and Grandpa Visit

We had a whirlwind week with the grandparents culminating in Rachel's birthday.



Thanks for coming Pat and Gus. We enjoyed the visit and all the help.

More Joel pics

Just because he's so cute!

First Haircut

"Hey what's going on here?"
"I don't like the look of that thing."

"Not cool daddy."
Freshly shorn and very cute!

The boys have other things in mind.

"Bye Daddy"

Joel's first sentence spoken while i was saying goodbye to all the kids on my way to work.

Caught Heather and I totally off guard. This kid has not done much except scream (loudly) lately. I hope the scream phase stops soon, but was really touched by the unexpected words.

He's paying attention (as they all do more than we realize)

Want a ride?

Pourin'

Footers are in. 60 yards of concrete, whatever that means?

Very interesting to watch.

I was able to get half the day off and go up there with the kids for about an hour.

Boom at work

Kids scribbling their names and hand prints.









It is really hard to write in wet concrete, but I did get Joshua 24:15 in there.

Five Years Old!

Time flies. We love you sweetie.

Hmmm...

My dad sent me this photo after Teri kindly scanned it in from her archives.

He wondered what was going through my mind?

Thinking about the burn-out to come? Yeah, that's it.

Nice blast from the past photo.

Here are some more. Ain't she beautiful?


Thanks Teri.
