Cousins/Sammy at the ER.

Aaron ll, Mikey & Sam...in inseperable cousins the entire week Mike stayed with us.
Sam our dare devil child~who has no fear when it comes to any type of sports decided to do some tricks on his brand new Heely's that he got for his bday from his Aunt Renee & family...so we ended up in the ER room later that evening with a fractured Humerous bone...really humerous on Mommy's bday :) At least the nurses thought so :)

...and more zoo pics.

Sammy loved this grizzly bear~ Aaron, Mikey & Sam.

Carson at the Zoo.

This was Carson looking at the Camel's. He was very into them as you can see~he had so much to say to them as well!

Our Nephew Mikey came out for Spring Break. We were all very excited to see "Mikey, Mikey..." :) We did various things while he was out...one of which, we visited the Zoo. It was absolutely freezing that day. The kids had a blast anyway!

Sam

Sam's first day of school. (2nd grade) & his first bus ride...he was not so sure about riding the bus at first~ended up loving it until a little girl told him his dog was "stupid..." & he was being tortured daily by her. We just told him that usually when little girls do that~that means she likes you! He was not thrilled about that conclusion!!!

Aaron

Aaron's first day of school. (6th grade)

Goodbye's....

..and saying goodbye to my long time buddy Deborah Jean~who I miss so much. Oh & Baeu.

Allie & Tylr

This is Allie & Tylr. Tylr was our neighbor next door. He was suppose to be born after Allie & he came two months before Allie!!! They had so much fun playing together~especially when they would jump on the trampoline together! Oh, & don't forget going thru the sprinklers & Allie would always strip down :>)

Going away party with Sutton Family.

While celebrating Alexandria's 3rd birthday~Aunt Linda & Aunt Cathy also hosted a wonderful going away party for us too. We will never forget this day~It was "record breaking" the hottest day in California history (I think!!!) We had a great time visiting with all of our family. However, this is the only other picture I have. You know~I'm finding myself say that quite often & I think it is all Allie's fault~I have to do too much chasing after her!!!!!! (See Renee~now you can't give me a hard time!!!) Cousins~Chris, Aaron & Sammy.

Allie was so excited to open her presents~Uncle Mike in the back...Allie & more "Dora" clothing!
