Sledding




Yesterday was pretty warm, so we decided to go sledding after the kids naps at Byron Christian Middle School. The kids loved it, especially Dylan. He loved going down the hill, he thought it was great going by himself and the faster he went down, the better. It is so amazing how kids change from one year to the next.

Random Summer Pictures


Before bed, Dylan and Cassidy ALWAYS have to play Ring-Aroung-The-Rosie, they are soooo funny!
Cassidy having one of her many temper-tantrums, girls are so dramatic.
Lizzie trying out our swing-set.
I think I have actually used one or two of my tomatoes this year. Either they've been infested with blight, or my son has got to them before me and eaten them like an apple (gross).

1-Year & 3-Year Pictures for Cassidy and Dylan

Last weekend a friend of mine, Katie DeBoer, took pictures of my kids, she did a great job, despite my children's uncooperative attitudes. Although they were not thrilled to have their pictures taken, Katie actually captured some great shots of their "true colors", especially Cassidy's desire to be with me ALL the time, hence multiple pictures of me and Cassidy.

Anyway, take a look at them and enjoy, now I have the task of figuring out which pictures to choose, not the easiest thing for me to do, I always want them all.

Dylan's 3rd Birthday


Last week Monday was Dylan's 3rd Birthday (ok, I am a little behind on posting pictures, especially considering today is Cassidy's 1st B-day), and he requested a caterpillar cake, so that is what he got. He liked my attempt at making a caterpillar cake, good thing he is only 3, if he was 10 he may not have thought that his mom did that great of a job.
