Both boys are on soccer teams. So we're driving 3 times a week to the fields which are 20 mins. away. We are officially insane. Especially since Chase couldn't care less. This is how you'll see him most games. Not paying attention, but he seems to be having fun. And Tyler has really gotten into the competition of sports-so he's fun to watch!
Chase continues to keep us laughing with all his dress-up combinations. He changes his clothes so many times a day that by the end of the day I can't even remember how he started out.
We went to the zoo w/ some friends and they have these really cool lego animals everywhere. Very cool!
Eliza had fun exploring. Do you see that mosquito bite on her face? This is how she looks all summer.
This pic just cracks me up. Her cry face is pretty cute and ugly all rolled into one.
Eliza, Tess and Chasey
Eliza and Hathaway giggling with each other. So cute.
Lexi was baptized last month so Grandma Joyce and the Shafer's came for the special occasion. I made this frightening dragon cake to celebrate ty and lexi's b-days w/ all the family. Sometimes things just don't work out. but it tasted yummy!
This, my friends, is my family
Tyler on his birthday. He was thrilled to get the chance to go to the coin store with Phil and choose a coin. He's really into coin collecting.
We took him out to lunch at Red Robin
My 2 other babies
Some other hoodlums at the other end of the table
Loving his own private sundae
Eliza is slowly becoming a tv junkie.
Tyler's birthday party of madness. The theme was sports and the kids had a blast. There were some tears however. Competition is hard when you're a kid. The game of tug-of-war especially ended poorly. Injuries, hurt feelings and a sore loser or 2. Oh, well.
The fill the bucket with water w/ a spoon game went MUCH better. They laughed and cheered each other on.
Go kids go!
After throwing objects into these big buckets for points, things got boyish and tackling of Phil began. When he's around wrestling just naturally happens. They loved it! After this they played football and I'm still amazed at how boys just seem to know how to play this game. I'm 33 and still don't get the rules. All in all the kids had a blast-and so did we!
And another cake that looks better from far away. Ty loved it, so that's what matters.
Oh, and Lexi was the only girl. And she wasn't into sports so the next thing we knew she was being tied to the tree. Then somebody would save her. It was very dramatic.

I love this blog post but freakin A! What's with my kid and getting tied up?!
Ty's party was epic. Joshua keeps talking about how fun it was.
Whew! Makes me tired. Good thing it was spaced out over the whole summer. Lovin' the birthday cakes. Cute!
