We had his birthday party at Grammy and Poopa's house this year. He got some really fun stuff!
This was my first attempt at ever decorating a cake. Nowhere near perfection, but he loved it. Guess that's what counts.
We went to KS for Easter to see our fam. This is the only pic I was able to take before my batteries died...thus the reason nobody is looking. They are with my sister's son, Trevor.
Some of our cousins had just moved to a farm nearby, and the kids got to feed their baby goats. They absolutely loved it!
Mother's Day wouldn't be the same without some silly faces... 
All the cousins took turns reading the Christmas story before we opened presents. For the younger ones Grampa read a little bit and let them repeat after him. Ethan really got into it and was using the same vocal inflections that Phil was using. Wish I would have videoed that.
Each year Esther is into a different game. This year it was Rumikub. I was horrible at it. Later I found out that it would have been much better if a few of the rules had actually been shared with me. :o/
Joey and I made homemade pizza for everyone New Year's Day. Got a litte over zealous and ended up eating pizza for several days.
Chloe loves to try to squeeze Mr. Potato Head's glasses on her face.
Ticklefest!
My "adopted parents", Phil and Esther. Love them so much!
Hyper fam pic.
