Grandma E is in town

Grandma came in town for a visit. We had a great time. The whole time that she was here Adam kept tabs on her. If Grandma wasn't visible he would ask..."Where is Grandma?" We had a

Backyard Fun

I just love my boys. They are really starting to interact with eachother a lot more and it is so much fun for me to watch. They are really cute with eachother.

Before and After

So some friends of ours were getting rid of their dinning room set. It is a great set solid wood, nice detail but I just didn't like the color and so...............

some stain, supplies, material, and several hours later.......

We have a geat dinning room set. I'm really excited to have a functioning dinning room and have a place for people to sit down when they come over to eat.

Dress Up

Check out Adam and all of his fun costumes. He is at a really fun stage where he likes to get in to character. Halloween has been especially fun to get ready for. there is not a day that goes buy that Adam doesn't get into his new Spiderman costume. Zachary likes to join in on the fun and put on a few hats. Becca, thanks for letting us barrow your chaps for so long. We loved them.



Looks at how cute Zach is in his army helmet.

When we got Zach's spider costume in the mail Adam just had to put it on. Anything that has to do with Spiderman is automatically cool and that includes spiders.

This is his favorite and best costume. Adam puts his spiderman suit on everyday. It is the first thing that he looks for in the morning (besides breakfast). He goes to the park, store and every where in it. He gets a lot of attention from the neighbors, which is a lot of fun. He totally goes into character when he puts on the mask, and when he takes it off he says to me "look mommy I'm Adam."

I'm Back

So I haven't posted for a long time as you can see. I realized that my last post was right before I was called to be the Young Women's President at church. http://www.lds.org/ Ever since then I have been either out of town on vacation (our summer was awesome) or doing YW stuff. I am so thankful for my new responsibility with the YW. They are great! I love being with them and the other leaders. It gives me an outlet and I feel my life being enriched.

Our boys are doing great. We have been having fun this Autum going apple & pumpkin picking at the local farms. We are in a great part of NJ every where we turn there is another farm to visit or park to go to. Here are a couple of pics of our recent adventures.

Climbing the tree was by far Adam's favorite part of our family outing.
Yes, that is a cape that Adam is wearing. We often go out with Adam in character. He likes to put on his cape and pretend that he is Prince Philip fighting the dragon in Sleeping Beauty.

Hacklebarney State Park

We went to Hacklebarney state park this last Saturday and it is our new favorite place in New Jersey. We had a great time! there were parts of the hike that followed the river and the trail was boulders. Adam had a great time pretending to fly over the rocks. He would climb the biggest rock with the furthest drop on the trail and jump off of it while I tired to ensure his safe landing. It was loads of fun.

Sandy Times

I whipped out the turtle sand box and plopped Zach in. It has been hours of fun ever since. Notice the ugly above ground pool in the back ground of Adam's picture. Well, it will be gone with in the next week. I can't wait!!!! Every time I look out my back windows I hate that humungous space taking, money drain even more. I sold it on craig's list! I'll be postin before and after pictures of our backyard when it is all gone.
