Eastons Elmo and Curious George Birthday!

Evan and Easton,getting ready to eat supper. Easton said that he wanted a kids meal for his birthday supper. So that is what he got. He was happy although I am sure he did not eat much. Ecspecially after he noticed the gifts, he honestly did not see them at first, but boy when he did he got excited.

Easton with his birthday cake that mommy made. As you can see he likes Elmo and Curious George, so we used both.



He is being a little shy here, can't remember why.



Here big brother Ethan is reading a card to him.



Trying his new skates, along with his Elmo protective gear.




I was trying to "help"him with his new skates. He had fun with them.

The set up of this blog is a little backwards, but here are the pictures I was talking about at the end of this entry. I finally got them loaded, but they are at the begging instead of the end. I am sure there is a way to put them at the end, but I do not have the patience to try. So here they are. Oh, I also did not put that many on here because I did not want to press my luck with loading them.
Evan with the egg he decorated.

Evan with his class. He is all the way to the right.


Easton with his class. He is all the way to the left, with the gray stripped shirt, he is on his knees.


Easton with his hat. All the kids from his school had to have hats. His was themed for March Madness and grandpas team, Michigan State, is playing so that is why the bunny is holding a flag with a S on it. It stands for Michigan State. Anyway that is the story of his hat. There was some pretty neat hats.


I have been keeping busy since moving to Sunny Florida. Because of that I have not posted on my blog much lately, so I thought I would take advantage of having some time to do that. We had Eastons 3rd birthday on Tuesday (3-18). That was fun, but I do not have pictures from that on this computer so I will have to post those later, sorry. Today I was off which was great because Evan and Easton had partys for Easter, so I was able to go to them. That was fun, and that is what these picturew are from. Hope you enjoy and I will try and keep more updated although I do not know how well I will be able to keep up with that because Ruth and the boys and I are going to be starting to move to Hobe Sound in the next few weeks. We have a house that we are going to be renting as of April 1st, but the nice thing is that we do not need to be out of this house until May 1st, so that gives us more time. The house we are going to be moving to is about a block from my parents apartment and about 3 blocks from the boys school and Ruths work. So that will be so nice. Of course it is right by church as well so that will be nice. I think I will probably be about the same distance from my work, so that will not change. I will just be coming from a different directions.
Ok I am getting frustrated because I am trying to upload pictures and it will not work. UGH!!!!! It seems like I always have these problems. Is it just me or do you all have problems with loading pictures on here too??

Sunday was my dads Birthday. He had requested that we have Round Steak, mashed potatoes, cream corn and bran muffins. Plus I guess he had said something about if he had meat and beans that would be fine. Well when we were at the store Ethan saw a can of kidney beans he said we needed to get it for grandpa. I had not heard that part of the conversation, so I told Ethan that we did not need the beans to go put them back. He put the can back and when he was walking back to were I was it looked like he was going to cry, so being the good aunt that I am I told him that if grandpa had said that then we should get it for him. Ethan was so happy. Dad had requested chocolate mouse for desert, plus ealier in the week he had said something about carrot cake, so we had that later. These are just a few pictures from Sunday.

Tomorrow is my dads birthday. Well, anyone who knows him very well knows that he loves sports. Especially baseball. So I thought we should go to a Spring Training game for his birthday. The Florida Marlins and the St. Louis Cardinals play their Spring Training games in Jupiter, which is only about 20 miles from here. Ha!!!
So Dad, Ruth, Ethan, Evan and myself went to the game today. It happend that the Marlins and the Cardinals were playing each other.


Ethan was not to sure who he wanted to cheer for, and grandpa said he was going to be cheering for the winning team. ?? Well, as you can see they settled on the Marlins.

They had to get there picture with this guy
I have to say that Evan loved hollering "Go! Go! Go! Go!" then he would say something different and say "Go Marlin! Go Marlins! Go Marlins!" he was having a blast.
Love you Dad, hope you had a good time. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Oh, yea the Marlins won. It was actually a great game. They tied it up in the 8th and then won it in the 9th.
I did not get many pictures because I do not have good luck with cameras. We had Ruths camera and it was acting up, just my luck.
