BUSY!

Wow! Add a digital camera and three adorable children and you get a ton of pictures!! I had 187 pictures on my digital camera from March alone. It used to take me a couple of months to use a 24 role of film! Time sure does fly by. I can't believe it is almost April 2007! We have been very busy, something is always going on. In this last week alone Sean got a flat tire on his car and then his car wouldn't start a few days ago and we had to have the starter replaced. Cars are so frustrating sometimes, and very expensive!

Ethan's 5th Birthday went great. We had his party at Little Caesars. There was about 30 people total, all family except for one friend of Ethan's. On Ethan's Birthday (Friday the 23rd), I brought cookies to his school and then drove him home. Grandma watched Julia and Caleb so Sean and I could have some time with Ethan. We took him to lunch at the McDonald's playplace and then went to WalMart to get his 5 year pictures taken. After that we headed over to Toys R Us because he is in their Birthday club and got to use a special shopping cart and got a ballon and crown. He was so excited to pick out a toy! Then we took Ethan putt putt golfing at Galaxsea Golf, a black light mini-golf place. He had fun, but I think he liked the decorations more than the golfing (see pictures in the welb album). Then we came home so he could get a little rest before the party. I made Ethan two cakes (see the pictures!!) I spent WAY TOO MUCH time on them! The car cake took so long to decorate with the different colors and not mixing them. Oh well, they both turned out really nice and he really liked them. The next day we went swimming at the Kalkaska Kaliseum. My parents watched Caleb and Sean's parents went swimming with us. Both Ethan and Julia had a blast! They have a slide there and both of the kids loved it! So here are the pictures from Ethan's Birhtday.

Ethan's 5th Birthday

We watched Happy Feet with the kids tonight, they loved dancing to it! My kids are so adorable and I feel so blessed with all that God has given me. Almost 100% of my time is spent taking care of my kids, but I know this won't last forever, they will grow and I will miss this time. So I am just trying to enjoy them right now. I want to start getting out a little more, doing playdates and such, but most days I am just lucky if I get a shower! Here are the rest of my pictures from March.
