Life...

So, this here blog has been suffering for uhhh, lets just say many many months! We have been busy, so that is a good thing right? Anyway, I am not going to try and bring this up to speed with the 10 million pictures that I have from the past few months (that is what facebook is for) anyway, here is to hoping this little blog gets more attention from me and soon!

We had a fun family night and hit Baskin Robbins and our favorite park!

I think she was enjoying her birthday cake ice cream!

My favorite boys!

Monkey boy!

"What if you lived 20,000 years ago?"
We love this huge park!

Happy Birthday Keefy!

(red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting)

Today is my hubby's birthday! He seriously is the best husband and father anyone could ask for! I think he had a good day, starting out with sleeping in, seeing his side of the bed heart-attacked, opening presents, laughing at the cards the kids made, relaxing all day, having philly cheese steaks for dinner and that cake above that I slaved over all day (and by slaved over I mean I ran over to Costco to pick it up)! Happy Birthday Keith! We love you! ♥
