Here is an older page - nothing new going on now to scrap, so I have time to go over old photos. This one however, I have had done for awhile, but thought I would share.

Birthday Party Weekend

This weekend Evan had a party on both Sat and Sun.

This is from the party on Sunday a a place called "Pump it up!".

They have all sorts of inflatable slides, obstacle courses, basketball courts, etc for the kids and even a rock climbing wall. Needless to say, the kids never stopped smiling.

On NY's eve, as soon as Evan knew it was snowing, he had to go outside and practice being a Ninja!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone!

Well Evan figured it out this year - no more banging pots and pans with the rest of the world at 9:00! Nope, "It really is done at midnight mom" is what I was told. So here he is - he made it to midnight, banged the pots and pans and promptly went to bed.

Triple Party

Here is the combo page I did for the triple birthday party. Everyone had so much fun. Evan really surprised us! He never wants to play baseball, went into the batting cage and hit a few balls! The ball even hit him on his hand and he still went back in and hit some more. I was really proud of him.


You can see him shaking out his hand when he got hit. Click on the photo and you can see his face - it really tells the story. And here is the page of the birthday boys.
