Wow ~ 6 Years!

Happy Birthday Spencer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Gang @ Spencer's 6th Bday Party!

Spencer, Gavin & Declan with siblings Bryce, Carter, and Dacey (We missed you Ian & Bart!) ~ having a blast! Several concerts, shooting starts trying to land on planets (Shawn's magnetic dart board turned into a solar system), snacks, and Spencer read "There's No Place Like Space" (Cat & The Hat book) to his audience! A great party all around!

The Rocket & The Moon!

Here's the rocket prep, and final product, complete with a computer panel and controls on the inside! The cake was a moon with Necco waffers for the craters, surrounded by stars in the galaxy!

Birthday Party Prep!

Gavin, Carter & Kerri joined us to make star cookies to go with the moon cake for Spencer's birthday party ... what a blast they had! They even got to drive their matchbox cars in the snow storm ... who knew left over flour could be such fun! And Gavin can even keep up with Spencer's loud and crazy singing, if not even give him a little competition!

Double Trouble

Will this be triple trouble?

A visit to Mimi's

A few cute photos from Mimi's ... Grier's ready to let Spencer mow the whole lawn now ... and yes, Bryce would love to hang off the side for the whole time! A turkey family has been visiting Mimi's patio, right along with the chicken's. The turkey's chicks where hidding in Mimi's herb garden.

More Graduation photos

A few more photos from Spencer's special day ... the fam and the 3 Musketeers ... Declan, Spencer & Gavin.

Kindergarten Graduation

Spencer's class had a cute little "Graduation from Kindergarten" party, including caps and diplomas. A very important day indeed!

Jammin'

Spencer's favorite pastime ... spending time with daddy in the basement!

Spencer's School Birthday Celebration

Spencer got to celebrate his bday early at school ... we brought in cupcakes, he read his "Spencer's Special Day" book that Aunt Mary had written for him, and the kids sang a special bday song for him. Pretty cool!

Happy 65th Grammy!

Grammy's 65th bday party! Jules joined us on the phone while we sang and Grammy opened her new camera. The boys made a nice "healthy" carrot cake, topped with white chocolate chips (Spence still doesn't like chocolate!) and crazy raisins for the #65.

Updates ... finally!

We finally seem to have our internet services back on track ... after about a month & a half of problems. So here are some recent pictures ... Spencer in the sprinkler on one of those 85+ degree days (of course today was back to the low 50's) ... and a nice picture of us taken by Spencer showing the growing baby! Down below are pictures of Bryce's many faces, a few of the boys together, and a couple of great shots with Grampa. Everyone has been fairly well, barring 6 stitches (in Spencer's knee) and allergy season! The baby certainly appears to be growing, and everything looks positive. Bryce has started a pre-school program 3 days a week, to see if we can help him out a little bit with his articulation. Spencer has had a great year in school, but unfortunately hasn't grown out of his panic attacks related to this wonderful thunderstorm season we're in. Shawn had confirmation yesterday, so he should be able to relax a bit more now. School ends for us on June 14th ... hooray for summer vacation!!
