Jarrett's 2nd Birthday

Jarrett is not really big on opening his gifts so mommy gets to do it all. He just wants to play with what is opened. He got a lot of great stuff. So we thank you all for making Jarretts 2nd birthday such a great day.

Jarrett's 2nd Birthday

Getting ready to have lunch at my birthday party. We went to the park in Rolseville and had a great time. I enjoyed my hotdogs and baked beans. After eating we had our egg hunt for all my friends and I. We had a great time in the woods playing and finding all the eggs.

Playing in my new bubble machine I had a great time running through and then laughing.

What a great Birthdy!

Happy Easter

2 year old Photo's of Jarrett Russel

This is mommy's favorite photo of me from this time of getting photo's taken. I was not very happy about getting my photo taken this time. I cryed most of the time or just wanted to play with the ball or bubbles they had there.

Daddy and the boys also got there photo taken. Mommy and the boys did not turn out to good so we did not get any of them this time maybe next time.
See this is the ball I did not want to give up to get the photo's taken. So they just gave in and let me have the ball.

Ice Skating Lesson 8

I know this has taken me a while to get up on here but it was not all my fault I could not figure out how to get the videos on the computer so Chad helped me tonight. This is Elijah on his last lesson of his first 8 week session. He starts his next 8 week session on Thursday. He is excited about it and can not wait till he can skate well enough to get into his hockey skates and start playing hockey. Chad and I are really glad he enjoys it and would like for him to stick with it for a long time.

Playing outside

The boys had an early dinner and then they went outside to play. Elijah still does not like shoes. At least it was in the high 60's so it was not that bad I guess. Jarrett was having a lot of fun digging up the dirt and carring it around the yard.



After playing outside they came inside and watched some cartoons and just rested untill it was bath time. Aren't they so cute!! Mommy sure things so.

David's Birthday Party

Elijah and David playing in the sand at the party.

Elijah and Jarrett went to a birthday party at a horse farm. They had a lot of fun playing in all the dirt and looking at a lot of different animals.
Standing in line to ride the horses. Elijah had a great time rideing but Jarrett did not like it at all. I think Jarrett did not like the hat and that started him off on the wrong foot for the ride.


Daddy helping Jarrett with his horse ride. Did not matter though they still cut his ride short.

Flowers

These photo's were in an e-mail sent to me about believing in God. I thought how true it is that God is everywhere. Just look outside and see his great creation. Have a great day in the Lord.

Dr. Seuss Day at Pre-School

Tuesday was Dr. Seuss' Birthday so in Elijah's class they read some books by him and made these cool hats.
