High Chair Naps

         I think I have a picture of all of my kids sleeping in the high chair.  Here is Naomi.  I think she will need a bath after her nap!

Hidden Lake Gardens Field Trip

                                          All five pose in front of a field of daffodils.

                 They had some beautiful evergreens.  Isaac has some interesting expressions while              Abbey poses like a professional!

                                      

                                            Love this of the older boys.

                                          

                                            I guess this is the "hidden lake"!

                                             This is Abbey's favorite picture of the trip.

Bowling!

The older kids and I have a tradition of going somewhere fun on Sunday afternoons.  Here are the kids at the bowling alley for the first time!

Christmas Morning

Happy birthday Abbey!

Eight year old (!), and her first real birthday party with guests not named Grandma or Grandpa.  We had a breakfast party with pancakes and casserole, invited all the little girls from the homeschool co-op, and enlisted the help of Abbey's oldest cousin and aunt.  I think she had a great time.

Christmas Time!

Every year, the college sponsors a Children's Christmas Breakfast for the kids of staff and faculty.

First professional haircut for Isaac

Usually we cut the boys' hair ourselves, but there's very little extra time around our house these days, so Isaac went with me and we both got our hair cut.  He did very well!
