Outside Fun!

The boys enjoyed the nice weather today, they had fun running around outside and playing in some water.

This is a signature look of Cole's, I get this look many times throughout the course of a day.

Reed did great outside, he was just moved from place to place and never made a peep!

Reed Allan Castor!

Reed Allan Castor was born on April 11th and weighed in at 7 lbs. 15 oz. and was 20 in. long. The boys are very excited about their new brother.

Going home!

Henry's Party

We celebrated Henry's birthday on Sunday, here are a few pictures from the day. I'm sure Amy will have many up on her blog soon.

Henry got a birthday wish from Bubba via the webcam.

The boys all thought it was fun to talk to him. Cole did try to throw that ball through the computer to Bubba.

Henry and Cole try out Henry's new wagon. I hope they installed the seat belts that came with it because I don't think Henry is going to stay in that seat without it!!

Kid City

Today was Henry's birthday so Amy had the day off so Cole, Luke and I joined them at Kidcity for some fun.

Here is Cole putting the fish on the conveyor belt in one of the rooms. I'm not sure why his tongue is hanging out?!
Cole loved driving the car......

......and Henry really enjoyed the ride!

Henry takes a turn on the slide.

After we left Kidcity we took the boys to Friendly's, I have to say for 3 little boys they were very good! Here are some pictures of dessert, that was by far the highlight of the day for Henry!

Poor Amy, they all decided they were going to sit with her for their ice cream.

Henry had his very first Cone Head!

However, he decided that Luke's double ice cream cone looked and tasted much better and he kept grabbing handfuls, luckily Luke was a good sport, I'm pretty sure Henry wouldn't take it so well if someone grabbed his ice cream!!

Luke looks a little unsure about the big hole his cousin just left in his dessert!

Here is the birthday boy before the big wipe down. We hope Henry had a fun 1st birthday, we sure enjoyed spending the day with him and helping him celebrate!

He's Back!!

Last night around 8:30 or so Bryan and I were sitting on the couch and heard a motorcycle outside our house. Bryan went out there to find a friend of his and his wife sitting in front of our house shining their headlight on our friend "the bear" up in the neighbor's tree. Bryan ran out there to check it out and took a video, the quality is not very good or very long, he's not great at working the camera. I would have gone all the way down there but let's face it I would never be able to run back to the house if he had decided to come down!! We got the boys out of bed and Bryan drove them down in the car to check him out. I guess we still need to be careful when we play outside, it seems he may be hanging around for a while!

March Pictures

Here are some pictures from this past weekend. Here is a picture of Jack's Potato Person. The first graders had to make a potato into a person and bring them in for a pageant today. Jack made a Tae Kwon Do potato person named "Jake".

Here is a picture of Luke from over the weekend after playing outside for the whole day. I found him passed out on the floor as soon as we had come in, he didn't even have time to take off his jacket.

Bryan was giving the boys rides today in the garden cart, they all thought that was pretty fun.

Henry thought he would pay Uncle Bryan back with a little ride. It was a good try Henry!!

Our First Sign of Wildlife!

This afternoon Amy and I were in the dining room and all of a sudden there was a bear walking very close to our back window. It was exciting to see some wildlife since we now live so close to the woods, however it was a little scary because Jack and Luke were playing outside at the time. Luckily the boys were in the front and made it in to see him and before he made it around to the front yard and across the street. I'm sure this is the first of many animals we will be seeing here!
