Tae Kwon Do

Look out! The boys can officially, properly kick and punch things. They each got their new belts in Tae Kwon Do. Micah got his first belt and Calvin got his second. They did a very good job and followed most of the disciplines. They also got in a bit of practice at home!

Easter 2011

This year we spent Easter in Chippewa Falls. The kids had a blast at Easter egg hunts, coloring Easter eggs, getting their faces painted (as tigers) and playing cards all weekend long. Micah even won a Spiderman bike and helmet at one Easter egg hunt!!

Visit with Santa 2010

We had lots of fun talking to Santa this year. He must have we were good because we got the toys we asked him for. Or, maybe it was the nice card that Calvin made him; or the yummy cookies we all made him . . .

Micah's 4th birthday!

We have several pictures from Micah's Spiderman-themed birthday party. He had lots of fun and got tons of fun presents. All attendees enjoyed playing with one or more of the presents.

Fall running

Abe took a few cute shots of the kids on a trail this Fall. We hope to use some (not those posted on the blog) for our Christmas pics.

Happy Halloween

For a few brief moments this summer . . .

. . . they were still. The rest of the time they were running, jumping and playing as you will see in the pictures below.

Fun with water

A few pictures of summer fun.

Sports

We have a serious runner and a not-so-serious runner/serious bball player (note that he is wearing his bball uniform, but holding a volleyball).

Eating

What fun is summer without a little (a lot) eating??!!?? Here are a few shots of hungry boys.

Playgrounds around town

We have visited our share of playgrounds in the Valley, including our very own backyard playground - once or twice. Here are a few shots from local playgrounds.
