Camping

My Aunt and Uncle were kind enough to let us borrow their camper for the summer. This past weekend was our first trip camping at our lake lot. It was perfect weather for camping.




The boys had a great time fishing




Eric caught a nice bluegill



Anthony tripped/fell when he stepped out of the camper and cut his head on a rock. So now we know where the closed ER is. Luckily it was a nice straight cut and we just needed a little glue.

Anthony was happy- he got a remote control car out of the deal.

Footings

Here is the latest update of the house. They will be pouring the walls for the basement tomorrow!!!

Clearing the area and stripping the top soil.- Goodbye shed!

Goodbye Polworth St

Most of you know that we finally sold our house! We were very sad to leave our neighbors :( We are very excited about building our new house! We will keep the blog updated with the progress of the house. The new house is staked out on the lot and we are hoping to begin digging this week!!!

Anthony's Birthday

Well I am finally posting pictures from Anthony's birthday! I cant believe that Anthony is 4!!!



We brought Batman cupcakes to Daycare.



Anthony's first Kids party.
We invited a few friends over to celebrate. It was such a nice day that we were able to have the party outside. We played games and had Batman sandwiches and Bat Brownies!







Family Party!




And last but not least the Batman CAKE!!
