William's Birthday Party

Today was William's 3rd Birthday Party.





William checking out the food.













William's cupcake cake based on Thomas the Tank Engine.













William really liked his presents (as you can tell by the looks on his face!)

Piano!

We got a piano! It is the one that my parents had when we were kids. My brother had it at his house, but they got the one that had been his mother-in-law's, so we got this one!

I plan on going through the "Alfred's Basic Piano Library" books with the kids.

Summer Fun

These are from August!


















The kids had just as much fun with the pool without any water in it!
























I got the kids each a kite at the dollar store and they had fun with them!








































































Enjoying the playhouse at the cousins' house!

Saturday Morning Cartoons

Yesterday, the kids -as usual- were up by 7:00. They all crawled up onto a piece of furniture with a blanket to watch Curious George on PBS. (PS, I miss sleeping in on the weekends!)

Artprize 2010

When we were in Grand Rapids for the Spirit of America concert, we decided to go across the street to view some of the Artprize exhibits. I took pictures of the ones in that area whether I thought they were good or if I even knew what they were!

The kids liked the big nest











My sister knows the artist who did this dragon. She is talking to him in the background on the left side holding Peter.

This exhibit was made out of nails!

William liked the airplane flying around the best!
