More Boating Fun!

Ahhh..aren't we the cutest?
Driving with Uncle E...sooo cool!
Hannah Banana's first boat ride!
Wake up sleepy head...where am I?
I think my cheeks are too big for this vest!
Checking out the wake...or sleeping?
Well, if you didn't know already -boatrides and sun can make kids very sleepy. Noah fell asleep waiting on the boat to pick him up and then woke up about 2/3rds of the way through wandering how he got there. Then Lilly fell asleep both times she went out on the pontoon. And Lucas seriously fell asleep standing up! Good thing Uncle Eric was there to scoop him up!

The Long Weekend

We had a great weekend! I think these pictures sum it up.
Tim's parents got a new Pontoon and even in the rain it was pretty fun! Lucas LOVED to drive it...don't worry he didn't hit any skiers!
It was great spending a long weekend with Daddy! Lilly loved the sun...when it came out.
And this is the redneck way to keep your milk cold! Too funny.

Gotta love bubbles!

Lucas got a bubble gun for Easter and it is pretty cool b/c it just shoots out a TON of bubbles.
Lucas loves to run through them as you can see. (He has great form...looks likes he is training for a Future Mini with his dad).
Such a little boy now...how do they grow so fast?

Frog and Duck

What sound does a frog make? Ribbit Ribbit
This frog loves to brush his teeth...
And thinks the fact that he is a frog is fascinating.
What sound does a duck make?
Quack Quack my little blue eyed duck! What a beautiful duck.
This duck is a little fuzzy, but the pic truly shows off the chub to those cheeks! Don't you just want to squeeze them?

The Carousel

Lucas was excited to ride the Horsey if you can't tell.
Mommy was giddy like a little kid too.
Lilly wasn't quite so impressed...but her horsey didn't go up and down.
Well, Lucas and Lilly both got their first Carousel rides at the Children's Museum on Mother's Day. Lucas was a little scared when the loud music started playing and the horse started moving but he held on for dear life and hopefully we didn't traumatize him!

Congrats Jason and Avanee!

This blog is a little late but Tim and I went to our friends wedding Saturday night after the Mini (yes, we could still walk...and dance!) Tim use to work with Jason, now they live out in San Diego.
They make such a beautiful couple!
The cupcake tower was gorgeous too...Lucas would have been in heaven!
If only Tim and I could dance this well! Isn't her dress gorgeous? Such detail.
We also got to reunite with some of Tim's old co-workers- Edgar was there from New York. It was so great to see everyone (and to get out of the house without the kids)! Congrats to the Beautiful Couple!

The First of Many

Well, I went out for Girl's Night last night and while I was gone the first fortress was built! Now wonder Lucas loves his daddy so much- he likes to play just like him.
Outside the Fort
Inside the Fort
Giggles in the Fort! Aren't they adorable?
Peeking out of the Fort.
The Proud builder of the fort. He is adorable too!
I am sure this will be the first of many forts. Tiff- remember our basement forts? :)

Watch out for the Kearney Boys!

Evan making his move on Lilly...
And Ethan kissing Aly.
Well...the Kearney boys were showing off their moves this past weekend at the Clark party. I guess the Kearney charm is working. Dave and Jamie- this is what you have to look forward to with your future little girl! At what age does the shotgun come into play??

Happy Clark Day!

Well, Congrats to the Clark family! They had a party on Saturday to celebrate many things! Dave has graduated with his Masters! Congrats Dave! And they were also celebrating Neils last surgery and Neil turning 2! He has had 6 surgeries to remove a large birthmark that use to cover half his head. The Clarks have been truly amazing through it all. Neil is a real trooper! I am not sure how they have held it all together and been as strong as they have...but I do have a feeling that God had alot to do with it!
Happy Birthday Neil! You deserve 4 cakes!
Gotta love blue icing!
Nice face Lucas. Want a cupcake anyone??
We ended the night with Tag Team Wrastling...(that is Maple under Lucas, Ethan and Aly). Neil is the referee!

Happy Mother's Day!


Me and my beautiful children on the train at the Children's Museum!
Hope all the mothers and mothers-to-be had a great Mother's Day yesterday! Mine was wonderful! We went to church, Tim made us a pancake breakfast, we went to the children's Museum and then out to dinner! We had a busy fun filled long weekend! Will share more pictures throughout the week!

Giraffes and Elephants and Bears- Oh My!

Today is Tim's birthday so he took the day off and we went to the zoo...
Tim and Lucas got to feed the Giraffes..they have VERY long tounges!
We got to see Tambi the elephant take a bath! We actually know the elephant trainer- her name is Nikki. She actually gave us a "back-stage" peek at the elephant and we got to touch her and then take a family photo with her...unfortunately we didn't check the camera right away and the pictures didn't turn out. We are soooo bummed!
Big old Grizzly bear taking a nap in the sun! So snuggly looking!
Here is the birthday boy giving Lucas a ride- He liked being able to see the animals above the crowd on daddy's shoulders!
Miss Lilly is actually 6 months old today! Happy 1/2 birthday Lilly!
After the zoo we celebrated with ice cream cake! I don't think Lucas quite understood that the ice cream WAS the cake. Lilly can't have ice cream yet so she decided to eat one of daddy's cards!
Happy Birthday to the love of my life!

Mini and 5K

Well, Saturday was the day we have been training for since January. Tim ran the Mini (13.1 miles) with some of his friends and I walked/jogged the 5K. We both wish we would have done a little better, but it just gives us a time to beat for next year right? (I carried a throw-away camera with me so the pics aren't the best).
Tim and Maple lining up with 35,000 people about to run 13 miles!
We Did It!!!!!
The boys (minus Dave)... Good job Guys!! We are proud!
Aly was our little cheerleader!
Seeing all the people downtown was pretty amazing! It is the largest 1/2 marahton in the country. There were 35,000 people in the mini and 3,500 in the 5K. The weather was perfect, a little overcast but not too cool. We are definitely going to sign up for next year! Any new takers??

We love Sesame Street!

Aren't they adorable?
Can you find Lucas?
The kids love to watch Sesame Street every morning! And Lucas likes to pull out every Sesame street character we have and put them on the couch to watch. We don't have cable so thank goodness for PBS!
