A Day in the Pool and a day of Playing Pool

The boys had a blast this afternoon! They transitioned from the swimming pool to playing pool in a matter of minutes!

It's been awhile!

I have so got to get more organized! I honestly can't remember if I posted the following pictures, if I have just scroll through and if I haven't---here are new pictures of the boys!!

Orion's class had an end of the year party and I took James....he blended in quite well!

Orion wasn't necessarily impressed that I was taking his picture--again!

No Longer MIA! LOL

I know I haven't posted anything on here in quite some time but for some reason blogger hasn't liked me very much and hasn't cooperated with my updates. So much has happened in the last month! I am posted some pictures to sum up our activities!

The night of our Confirmation and James' baptism

Easter bunny treats

James and Orion looking through their "loot"

Our tie dyed easter eggs....this picture doesn't really show the patterns. The boys enjoyed doing them!

Putt Putt golfing! We all had a blast!

With 3 sons everything is a competition....putt putt golf is no exception!

My Dad came down to bring the boys their easter baskets and during their visit they threw James an impromptu birthday party

The cupcake birthday cake his MiMi made for him.

James and Orion are serious buddies. Since James can't read yet, he depends on Orion to read to him.

Can't you see how much he loves his brother?

My Family

James wanted to take a picture of us...please forgive the roughness of my appearance lol

Black and White

Anyone that knows me, knows that I LOVE black and white pictures of my boys. I'm not sure why, but to me they look cool. I have never claimed to be a professional but I think these look pretty cool!

Spring Flowers and Water Balloon Fights!!!

So, today the weather forecast called for severe thunderstorms and conditions. However, we had a little wind and some dark clouds then "hello sunshine"!!! We were going to buy one of the monster sized pools for the boys as the one we have used for the last two years is a bit small for the ever growing preteen boys that we have. However, the weather forecast deterred us from purchasing one. It's a good thing though because I wouldn't have gotten a front row seat to the first water balloon fight of the year otherwise! I am also posting pictures of our first roses. My sweet husband and precious sons buy rose bushes for me every year (one for each child I've given birth to--for a total of 4 rose bushes a year) and I am always super excited when they start blooming.
