Benny Boy Turns Five!

Hard to believe, but Benjamin is five! Ben is a fun guy. He is very social and loves his friends, family, legos, and star wars. For Ben's birthday we went bowling, made light sabers, went through jedi training, and took a whack at the Darth Vader Pinata. Ben also received a new bike for his birthday. We are excited to hit the road together. Ben, we hope you had a great birthday Buddy and always keep that smile on your face. We love you!

January

Once again I am behind....so here are some pictures from 2011 of the fam. In January we had our major snowstorm of the year, so we had to make sure we spent plenty of time playing in the snow before it melted.

Happy Halloween!

Halloween Dinner Menu:
Brains(Spaghetti)
Eyeballs(Meatballs and olives shown above)
Bones( breadsticks shaped to look like bones)
Witches fingers(green beans)
Drinks
Blood(red Kool-Aide)
I think we covered most of the basic food groups! Delicious!

As you can see from the picture above, Abby is not a huge fan of Halloween. She was a giraffe but would not wear her hood, so she just went as "crabby Abby." Better luck next year.

Yikes! If these two spooks don't scare ya, I don't know what will! I was a black cat this year and Marc was a tourist.

Pumpkin Carving

The finished Jack'0'lanterns!

Kaitlyn wondering if the seeds were ever going to stop coming!

The kids did a good job this year of scooping out their seeds and drawing faces on their pumpkins for Marc and I to carve. They looked very spoooky!

Ben's Preschool Hayride

Ben's Preschool going for a hayride and to pick a pumpkin! He was really excited he was able to wear his hat! Ben likes hats.

Marc's Birthday

One year older and wiser too!

Virginia Beach

While in Norfolk we decided to drive down to Virginia Beach and have a picnic. We were not going to get too wet because we had to drive home that day, but you can see how well that worked out for us!

Abby loved the sand! She would roll around in and just laugh! Here is her Baywatch photo shoot!

Surfs Up!
