PBA here we come!

Pro Bowling Association that is. We took the kids to SuperBowl for the first time. They had fun the first game, but we found out 2 games was their limit.

The Easter Bunny (Grandma) hopped into the Village early

Last weekend Grandma stayed at our house in between Janna's bball games. She brought us cool easter baskets with goodies. Thanks Grandma and Papa!

Happy Birthday!

Calvin turned 4 on March 11, Abe turned 32 on March 4 and Janna turned 14 on Feb 24! I know it is a little late, but here are the pictures from the big party!

They take after their Dad!

We made some "muffins" for Calvin's birthday. Amazingly, they turned out very good! :)

Mom's little helper

Micah is so helpful at dinner time. He typically is excited to help set the table. I wonder how long that will last??!!

Makeup?

At first glance, it looks like Janna tried to apply makeup for the first time. Not quite. She managed to get a bruised eye playing basketball. I am certain Micah is sad that he missed that game. For what it is worth Janna, you are beautiful without makeup! :)

New beds

The kids are all tucked into their new air beds...that also double as trampolines. Nobody tell our homeowner's insurance agent.

And now for the more angelic part of the family...

Merry Christmas

...from the Red-eyed Devil family and "Squinty". Micah likes to close his eyes everytime he says, "Cheese".

Terrible Twos

Do kids really know that they need to start being "terrible" when they turn two? If so, Micah is very smart for his age. This morning Micah was naughty and had to sit on his bed. Instead, he buried his head in toys and whined. Seems very appropriate for his age.

Happy 2nd Birthday Micah!

Micah had his first of two birthday parties yesterday. As you can see from the pictures, he likes the cake this year! The second picture is of the kids table, with Miles, Calvin and Micah.

Christmas isn't Christmas without a trip to see Santa

My cousins

Last weekend we went to watch "Janna baball". Now, Micah says "Janna baball" about 1,000 times per day. Anyway, in this picture (l to r) are: (2nd cousin) Steven, (cousin) Janna, Micah and (2nd cousin) Jeremy. We all had lots of fun and Janna played awesome! :)

Christmas Parade

We were late, but we still made it to the Appleton Christmas parade last Tuesday. Not only were Joe and Jodi nice enough to save us a front row curb, but Jodi took these great pics. Thanks Jodi!
