Disney World

WOW! What an amazing trip! We had so much fun. The boys had a great time. Grant loved meeting all the characters - too many pictures to post. Bryce enjoyed eating popcorn and pretzels, riding Toy Story Mania, and visiting the Lego Store. Braeden loved the Aerosmith Rock-n-Roller Coaster, Mt. Everest, and Tower of Terror. We enjoyed spending time with my parents, my brother and sister-in-law, my aunt, uncle, and cousin from Minnesota. They had never met Grant before so they had a fun time playing around with the kiddos. It was hard to come back to reality, but there was so much to do a day before Christmas. Can't wait to go back again!

Braeden's Last Tournament

Braeden's summer tournament won 2nd place. They played really hard and lost by 2 runs.
He had an awesome season as pitcher and 1st baseman! Way to go Bubby!!!

Braeden's School Years

I thought this would be cool to give to all of Braeden's teachers at the end of his 5th Grade Year. They have made such an impact on him and really have helped him succeed in school! It's funny to see how he has changed throughout the years - not much - just taller!!!

Grammy and Tompa's

A few weeks ago, we went to my in-laws for swimming and a grill out. Matt's brother, sister-in-law, and kids were there too. The boys had fun with their cousins!

Hard Day - Full Tummy

Poor little Grant played so hard, didn't take a nap, and then finally fell asleep after eating his spaghetti. I didn't have the heart to wake him, so I just reclined his high chair so he could sleep for a little bit.

Bryce's Swimming Lessons

Bryce took swimming lessons again from Miss Amy. He loves her! She is so good with the kids and really teaches them how to swim. I could really see an improvement how he is in the water when we take him swimming at our neighborhood pool!
"Hey, is someone going to catch me?"

The boys and their bikes

Everyday the boys want to go out and ride their bikes and scooters. The only problem is I have to go out with Grant and it's so dang hot here! I try and go on a walk early in the morning or in the evening. They love just going up and down the street. Braeden is getting to where I let him ride around the block!
Grant loves ringing the bell on his bike
