Mr. T gets baptized

 Well there was lots of in's and outs for Mr. T's Baptism.  

In the end we were grateful for how it had 
helped us focus on his decision to be baptized.  

Like changes to gathering numbers the day before.

He has been looking forward to this all year!

Breakfast of champions,

muffins and OJ.

All ready with Dad.

Mom was having a rather good day too!

These girls were a lot less impressed.

It was freezing, and some of them

were made to brush their hair.

Dressed to make promises!

We were so happy that we could have a zoom link 

for Grandma Cathy, Grandpa and Grandma Webster, 

Aunties Shannon and Deanna, Lindsay and Jason, 

the Butchike family, and even Grandma Berta 

could see and send their love.

Shane took him to get Frosties after.

He felt so loved.

We all did.

November Mr. T's Birthday

Someone is turning 6!!

On his actual birthday we had a great time 

surprising and spoiling him!

(who doesn't love a pirate ship!)

Then the girls got to give him presents,

 

and more presents,

 

and more presents.

 

Which was a giant pile of cars!

 

Even ms. C liked them 

Ms. A was excited for pokemon.

 

Seriously piles of cars!

 

Then there was a friend party!

Clearly it was a Red Power Ranger Party.

 

We started by making rockets to launch in the alley. 

Here's Dad showing us how it's done.

 

Then Lunch.  

Pizza for everyone. 

Haha I think this baby had almost three pieces.

 

 

What a goof.

 

Thanks Grandma for the vest!

It's perfect.

 

Happy Birthday Dude!

September Indoor Playground

So . . . we put the kids in two sessions of swimming in a row.  

I may just expire as a mom, this makes us stupid busy.  

But Mr. T was only in the second session.  

Usually we just go swimming but he 

was in the mood for a break and so was I!  

One week I opted to take Mr. T and Ms. C to the 

indoor playground while the other kids were in lessons.  

(Shane took them!)

 

Best Decision Ever!

These two had so much fun!!

 

What a good big brother!

June and July Road Trip Part 1

July 1st Road Tripping!!

These kids are so adventurous!!

6 hours cramped in a van was not 

awesome for everyone.

But we love our family enough to do it!

It was also the maiden voyage of Shane's trailer!

Right after school was out we headed south!

We started out in Raymond preparing for July 1st!

Shane decided to head out and get a ride in too!

 

This year we all did the road race.

It was new and fun! 

 Sunday was church with grandma.

Aaand right at nap time.

Monday Morning Parade!

Candy is always a big deal! 

Ms. V was soooo enamored with the princesses!

It was like a dream come true!

We went to find them after and had 

a fantastic time taking pictures! 

Post parade fun!

Shane was manning the grill for lunch.

Lots of candy and juice to go around.

Ms. A decided to decorate 

Ms. V's glasses for her!

 

Pretty sure Mr. T ate more chips than hot dog in the end.

 

This girl just devoured whatever we handed her!!

Ms. A lost a tooth.

(Not the one she was hoping would fall out.) 

But she could still eat ice cream!

And this girl started walking!!!

Yeay!

See what I mean about the chips.

But he paused for ice cream.

Later Ms. E had a thorn stuck in her ankle that 

required surgery, she was sure brave. 

After this we spent some time with Lindsey 

and the kids before heading to 

Grandma and Grandpa Websters house.
