BOO!!!!! @ the ZOO!!!

Saturday, 10/30/2010 I took the boys to BOO-at-the-ZOO! They had a good time and were really well behaved, but I don't think I will do it again. It is always more fun when there is family around, so that is what we did. Kelly D. went with me and the boys, Chrissy, Jim, Brian, Gina, Katie, Michael and all the kids in tow. Katie and Michael caught up after I left. So we actually had 2 group photos. The kids liked the 4 pieces of candy they received for standing in the longest line ever. Next time, I will take the kids to the Zoo after halloween and bring my own bag of candy for them. It was a good picture opportunity.

Danny & Chris's 1st Birthday!

I know, I am far behind on my updates. Well, I lost a lot of my pictures. I had a lot of them on my work laptop and it had to be reimaged. They could not save anything that was on my hard drive. Luckily during the summer I uploaded the majority of them to Walgreens and Shutterfly. Shutterfly will only cost about $30 to put about 3000 pictures on a disc (a lot cheaper than walgreens). I did lose Matt and Mike's 2nd bday and when we went out to Foristel for Billy P.'s bday, but I think that is it. Good thing all my 2009 pictures are still on my personal labtop, but they will be uploaded this week. I will make sure of it. These pictures are not in the order that I wanted them to be, but my computer was acting really stupid...
On to the 1st bday party.......It was a lot of fun, I was able to enjoy myself this time. I had BBQ'd the day before and family also helped make some dishes. Thank you everyone. They received lots of presents (toys and clothes) They needed all of them, it is kind of like Matt and Mike get a 2 birthdays in a row. They love playing with all of their brother's toys. I made them the baby Einstein catapiller for their cake and I was happy how it turned out. But I will never do something like that again.....(thank you Misti Hackmann)..

Some videos

I bought a new Sony Handycam. I love it...having 4 babies I have to have a video camera. Here are some of the things that were captured.

Once again it was another hot day for a family reunion. It doesn't matter when we have it, it will always be hot but we all still have a good time. It was so hot that there was a sprinkler running and all the kids kept running through it. Matt and Mike got so muddy, I just took off their clothes and let them run around in their diapers. All 4 of the boys played with and ate the ice out of everyones coolers. Thanks to everyone for letting the kids get into your stuff....lol

Cool dudes ready to go

Matthew and Michael's 2nd Birthday Party

Matt and Mike's birthday was July 18th, so I had party at the house. They had so much fun playing with their cousins, aunts, uncles and friends. We are so blessed to have everyone in our lives. Thank you so much for all the great gifts and celebrating with us. They had a party at their dad's the day before so I was able to get their cake decorated and the house cleaned. Elmo turned out great and the boys loved it.

Golfing at Bellefontaine

The boys love spending time with all of their cousins. Probably because they are all the same age. Bellefontaine Civil Center has a miniature golf behind the pool and during the summer they offer golf, food, drink and a prize for the kids for $1. It was great. There were so many people there they had to break prizes apart. Chrissy was there with her 4 kids, Katie with her 2, Jackie and Cali. So we had 12 kids just from our family. The pictures all turned out so cute.
