Camping Memorial Day Weekend

We went camping in Lakeside over Memorial Day weekend. It was a nice, relaxing trip. I was able (for the most part) to just let the boys play outside and not worry about them. There was so much for them to do and so many kids to play with that they never got bored. And I had a good book to keep me busy. Good trip!

Thomas and Andrew snuggled up with cousins Aidan and Oliver watching a movie while the adults played games.

How do little boys get SO dirty?!

I thought Thomas had 2 black eyes when he first walked up to the trailer! No, just rubbed his eyes with really dirty hands.

Preschool Graduation May 25, 2010

Here is Thomas's cute little preschool class. He learned so much through this year, and I am so proud of him!

Getting his Mentos award "For your mo'mentos' way of teaching us perfection!" Ha, ha!

(Thomas is a little bit of a perfectionist when it comes to writing, coloring, etc. and just finishing his work through to the end.)

All the kids were asked what they wanted to be when they grew up. Thomas said, "Cowboy!"

Thomas Turns 4

Thomas turned 4 on April 22nd. I was on a cruise with my sisters on his actual birthday, so he celebrated with Ryan and his side of the family in Mesa. Then two days later, we did another little party for him (his "Maricopa party") with my side of the family.

Side note on the cruise: I forgot my camera! So I don't have any pictures of my cruise. I need to get the ones my sisters took and I'll post about it later.

Andrew strikes again...

The following pictures are of Andrew's artwork, on the canvas of Thomas's clothes:

My question to Thomas was, "Why did you sit still and let him do this?!"

His reply, "I didn't LET him do it, Mom, he just did it on his own!"

Oh, right.

Andrew Turns 2

Andrew had his 2nd birthday on March 8th.

The next day he had some cousins help him celebrate. We were thinking of taking them to the zoo, but it turned out to be a rainy day.

So we went the next day after his doctor check up. Riding the train. Gotta get the kettle corn!

It was a lovely day!
