All tuckered out!

So much fishing and playing outside!

Swingin' with Aunt Chris and Grandpa

Everyone was there.....

David and Danielle, Rebecca and Mike, Chris and Pat and Mom and Dad....Plus all 8 grandkids. Even Great-Grandma and Grandpa Booher stopped over:)

It was a great weekend. The water was freezing but the boys still went swimming. Brr!

More cousins!

Grace's 5th Birthday Party at Camp

Grace has beeen so excited to have her party at camp, again. Seems to be a tradition now. So, she had all 7 cousins there. Opened some presents, had her cake. She also got tons of black fly bites, one right in the corner of her eye! She got mostly horse gifts, what a shocker.

Thanks Great Grandpa and Grandma Booher:)

Grace is turning 5 next week. She recieved some birthday money from her Great Grandma and Grandpa Booher. They are so thoughtful. So, Grandpa, here's a big Thank You to you guys! Grace bought some horses she wanted and was so excited!

Indiana Jones?

Isaac is lately into Indiana Jones. Do you see any resemblance?

One of my recent van ride conversations. Isn't life fun with kids!?

Isaac: Mom, can I have a party at the movie theatre? Me: Well, what do you mean? Isaac: you know, have the whole class come and we can watch Indiana Jones? Me: I don't know about that Isaac. First, it probably wouldn't be playing around your birthday, second, I don't think all the kids in your class would like it? Grace: I want to come to the party at the movies! Isaac: You can't, there are some scenes you'd be scared of Grace: I want to come! Isaac: Gracie, you can't! (yelling is starting) Me: Guys, Guys, GUYS! There is no party in the movie theatre! Isaac: (Starting to cry) but I want to have a party in the movie theatre for my birthday! Grace: I want to come! Me: Isaac, your birthday is like 6 months away. No more talking everyone.

What are the Odd's?

James just happened to see Rob Richard, long time friend and old roomate from college on the highway! James was on his way home from the yankee's game and Rob on his way home from a wedding. My dad pulled over after all 4 guys were waving at Rob. They got to catch up for a few an snap a picture.

All the Guys at the Yankee Game

Some famous Yankee players

Yankee's Game

My Dad got tickets to the Yankees vs. Met's game at Yankee Stadium. He took James, Mike (a met's fan) and my brother David. The guys had a great time. Spent the night in NYC and had some good food and fun. Here are some pictures that James took.

What a smile!

Wrestle time with Daddy and Anna

Anna and her Daddy were "wrestling". So cute. She just delights in her Dad and I think it's a good thing James only has two pinkies:)

Mother's Day

I don't have pictures for this post, shocking, I know, since that is all I normally post! However, It was a wonderful day. My kids came in handing me plants saying, "Happy Mother's Day", I barely had my eyes open...Anna ran in lastly saying, 'Happy Valentine's Day, Mommy." For some reason, every holiday is Valentines for her. We laughed about that the rest of the day. Isaac and Grace had both made home made gifts from school. However, about two days prior to Mom's day, had been working feverishly in their rooms making dozens of pictures that they put in shoe boxes wrapped in Christmas paper with peppermint patties taped to the top. So cute. Isaac gave me a great story that actually reminded me of his daddy!! It said, "One day there was a mother and her family and this Mother loved her family. But one day a fire came to her family. The end. My Mother is the best mother ever!!!" I just cracked up (not in front of him) B/c his father wrote a poem for his mom when he was around 7, for Valentines. It said, "I shot a dinasour and I'm boiling his head in a pot." "oh how beautiful is the winter fallen snow..." Does anyone else see the similarities there?? James made pancakes (first time ever:) and then we barely made it to church. We spent the afternoon at Chris and Pat's..the guys cooked out and the kids and adults played baseball in the afternoon. It was so much fun. Anna spent about 3 hours in the sand box!! They just played all day outside. What a great day. To top it off, Danielle, Chris and I went to see, "Made of Honor"..very good chick flick. Laughed a lot and some good romance...you know, not realistic at all! Hope all you mom's had a great day and kicked back a little!

Big Brother, Little Sister

Isaac and Anna

lilacs

Anna loves the flowers. The lilacs are in bloom. She is just all girl. She won't take off these tinkerbell sunglasses that Aunt Danielle gave her.
