Evan at Play

It is going to take forever to get caught up with the old photos! I am happy that I have all of 2007 done and most of 2008 current so that will help me not get more behind. Anyway, here is Evan enjoying the house and slides in the back yard.

Evan & Patrick

Going through old photos to do some early years!

Some old pictures - Evan at 8 months

On this one, I toyed with a different saying..."sometimes it can be hard to watch", but figured I would just go with the slogan instead. 8^).

Orlando Bloom visits Blaine School

Evan's class gave biography presentations at school. I made magazine covers for each child. Here is Evan's.

And here are 2 others that I did.

Go Carting in Branson, MO

This is from our vacation in Branson, MO 3 or 4 years ago. Boy, time sure does fly by.

Evan's 1st Booster Days!

Keeping up with the new events so, I am going back to scrap the old ones. They are much harder to do, you heart is always in the present, but it is fun to see the old pictures and see what I can come up with.

Gladiators!

Degerberg had a American Gladiators night for the kids last Sat. Evan and his friend Ben L. went together. They had to hang tough for 30 seconds while balls were thrown at them, try to get past the gladiators and reach a goal, get past the gladiators and throw balls into a basket, and joust a gladiator. The boys had a blast.

Who is this little guy?

I know that I am biased,but this little guy is adorable!

Bowling Parties

Evan when to two bowling parties ... the first one in Feb and the guest of honor was sick and did not make his own party.

The second one was in March.

Field Days

Here are some pictures from Field Days last June.
Evan's class represented Italy! I provided the iron on crayons and each child colored the Italian flag; I then ironed them on 28 tee shirts!

Blaine Does Broadway

Here is a layout from last year's Blaine does Broadway!

Chinese New Year

Evan's Chinese class celebrated the Chinese New Year, but singing some Chinese songs at a school and performing at Truman college.

007 Spy Party

Last summer, Evan went to a 007 Spy birthday party. It was such fun, that I even had a blast watching the kids!

You Color My World

I just love this layout - I like how I made the background look like a newspaper comic strip - my first try at this techinque - b/w and color together.


Everything but the stiching is from ConnyB's Color my World kit.

Discover

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.

Orange Belt!

Evan was promoted to Orange belt tonight!

He was so nervous, he thought that he did not make it, but yes he did!

Ninja Training Ground

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.
