Birthday boy, soccer and family

I think the only thing cuter than Kindergarten soccer has to be Preschool soccer! It is so cute! Spencer had his first practice on Friday.







Kirk's oldest brother and his family came to visit Friday and Saturday nights. We *loved* having them! The kids all had a great time playing. The older kids had fun playing soccer in the backyard. We even got a picture of all the kids together. What I find amusing is that the knees of the girls' pants are all dirty and grass-stained, but not the boys'. Hahaha!!



Spencer had his 4th birthday today! He asked me to make a Sackboy for him. If you haven't heard of that before, it's the character in a Play Station game called Little Big Planet. He requested blue and I set out to make him one.





He was pretty pleased with the results. I was going to add a little red tongue hanging out of his mouth and a few other finishing touches, but Spencer nixed that.

Brotherly Love

I hate getting behind. I get behind a day or two and then there are too many things I want to post about to do it in a normal amount of time. So I try to wait for a good amount of time. Meanwhile, more things are backing up waiting to be posted. Before I know it, there is just too much to post so I dump it all into one and try to pick up from there. This time I think I will try to get all the p365 pictures into the gallery, but I'm still going to write about some of the cute things from the last week or two. Don't worry, I'm not going to put them all in one post. ;c)

A little over a week ago, I watched the boys playing together. Elijah loves it when Spencer laughs. It's funny to watch him trying to make Spencer laugh.

This particular day, Elijah was fascinated with Spencer's hat.




He really wanted the hat.


He was trying his best to take it from Spencer's head.


These two are so cute together.


Just wait until they get older.


I bet they are going to be t-r-o-u-b-l-e!



I have been asked a couple of times about what camera I use and do I edit the photos much. I've answered in the comments a couple times, but I'll make a post about it soon so that it's out in the open and not hiding in a comment. The short answer is I use a Canon Rebel XSi and don't edit them too much. Mostly the camera is just awesome.

Catching up again and a Public Service

It's time to get caught up with all the p365 photos! It's so easy to get behind, then once I'm a little behind it starts to feel like a chore to get caught up again. Also, "It" finally happened. I missed a day. Day 50, to be exact. It was a shame to miss a day and such a nice, round number at that, but I'm glad it happened. It took the self-imposed pressure off to not miss a day. :c)

I'm also here to provide a public service. I've been told by a couple people that having to look at those donuts was doing them no favors, so in an effort to help out and not sabotage any more diets, I'm going to bump the donuts down the page a bit. Aren't I such a caring individual?

I now bring you the highlights from days 48-62 with the rest being in the photo gallery. I have more pictures to upload and need to add descriptions to the ones I've already uploaded, but I have a baby boy who is beginning to get a cold and isn't feeling well tonight, so I'd better go snuggle him.

Enjoy!
