May 2010 Pinewood Derby

Last year Nathaniel designed his pinewood derby car as a banana and won every race plus he won an award for the most original design..

This year he decided to go with another yellow object...a pencil..and you would think a pencil shape would be more arrow-dinamic and go even faster than a banana but apparently not! He still won again for having the most original design. That is what he cares about most anyway!

May 2010 Elora's 4th Birthday

Elora got to have her sweet cousins Kennedy and Riley join us for her 4th birthday party. We also had the scouts and their families coming and going for their Pinewood Derby weigh-in. So we had a very full house that night with lots of activity and Elora loved all the extra kids to play with. It was like having a great big party!

Two brothers...a little tired...so cute

May 2010 Annika's 6th Birthday

Annika had a busy, day full of fun the day she turned six.



That morning...

Annika was so excited to get a Barbie Mermaid which she had begged for. In the afternoon...

We took cupcakes to school to celebrate with her kindergarten class.


That evening....
We were so lucky to have our cousins, the Nunleys, with us. After a fun party, the boys all slept out on the trampoline and the girls all snuggled down together in the girls room.
