Daddy's New Scooter

This is Daddy's new scooter. The plan is that Jason will ride the scooter to work and back. It gets around 90 mpg so hopefully we will save a lot of money on gas.




















Either way the boys think Daddy is pretty cool!!!

It was HIS idea...

You don't know how hard it was for Jason and I to keep a straight STERN face after seeing these two. They had used a piece of Coal to paint themselves black. Daddy took them upstairs to the bath, and mommy had to RUN to get the camera. I just love the expressions they have on their faces in this picture, haha!!

Finally a family portrait!!!

You can see all the photos on our Web Gallery, and you can download them there too.

Noah's 4th birthday

Noah had a great birthday, COMPLETE with a cake just for him. I was so worried about him getting a cake, and I was very emotional about the whole thing. With the diet he is on for celiac, I have taken him off of dairy and gluten(wheat). So that makes a birthday cake pretty hard to come by. Well, THANK YOU ANGELA, I got a recipe for dairy free icing, and used Red Mill gluten free cake mix. The icing turned out kind of like a fondant so I just rolled it out and cut out the batman shapes. Noah was so excited, and mommy is pretty darn proud of herself. It was the best part of the whole day for me!!!

Trip to the Z-O-O

For Noah's birthday we took him to the zoo. It is actually his 2nd time going to the zoo, but he was just a baby the first time. He was sooooooo excited. We told him that for his birthday we were going to the Z-O-O, but he didn't know that z-o-o was the zoo till we got there. We saw all his favorites, elephants, giraffes, monkeys, and his all time favorite... the tiger. On the way out we got him a book about the zoo and a tiger mask. It was a great trip. And we are so glad that Jaime and her little ones were able to join us.

PM's 3rd Birthday Luau

This is the mom's group I am with. It is called PeninsulaMommies. I am the one of the co-events managers for this group, the other manager, Liz, is sitting beside me on the right side of the picture. This is our 3rd Birthday Party for PeninsulaMommies.

We had an awesome birthday party this year. It was a luau theme. We had a hula hoop contest, best dressed contest, hang ten photo op, lei making, and LOTS AND LOTS of door prizes. We had leis for all our newer members and gave away beach balls as a take home gift.
We made 64.50 for PM with our 50/50 drawing, and gathered 15 grocery bags full of food for the food bank.

We had...
44 Peninsula Mommies
