Just a little late

We had a package sitting on our doorstep today.  It was a book and toy for Kenny (that he already has) but the paperwork didn’t say who it was from.  We were racking our brains trying to figure it out when I took a closer look at the paperwork. 
Look at the ordered and shipped dates: 
 
This was [...]

Guess who’s 2 today?

This post was originally titled Guess Who’s 1 Today until my husband looked at me and said, “uh, he’s two today.”

I hiding

I walked into Luke’s room yesterday morning and heard him saying, “I hiding,” and then found him like this

HAPPY BDAY TO MY BROTHER MIKE!

Soccer practice

Last night was Kenny’s second soccer practice.  This is the first time he’s played since he was three.  When he played back then, the entire team spent the majority of the time walking on this dirt path that was on the soccer field.  I can already tell that this year is going to be much different.   

Also, today is [...]

Assessment

Kenny had his first assessment at school today.  I think he’ll have 3 total throughout the year.  Mrs. B said he did really well.  His letter sounds are great and he’s already reading.  We have to work on the part of the assessment that includes quickly matching the letter sound to the letter.  I guess there [...]

Ivan

A few months ago, we decided to sponsor Ivan through CFCA.  We just received our second letter from him yesterday.  An adult wrote the letter (he’s only 5), Ivan drew the pictures and then another person translated it for us.  How cute is this?
Letter 1

Letter 2

Kenny drew this picture for Ivan, which we mailed right back to him (along [...]

Happy 30th Eric!

Happy 30th birthday Eric and welcome to the club! 
I was going to throw a surprise party for Eric but I just couldn’t decide on what group of friends to invite (and there was no way I was going to be able to invite them all).  I finally broke down and just asked Eric what he [...]

Before I broke my camera

My niece and nephew are in town.  We all went up to the pool yesterday and I was able to get these shots before I dropped my camera.
Will and Kenny spent the majority of the time on the slides.  Kenny even went down the big, straight slide.

- On Tuesday night I met up with my MIL, SIL and Eric’s aunt Carol and cousin Rachel for Carol’s birthday [...]

6/100

One of my friends had this on FB and I though it was interesting. 
The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 books here. How do your reading habits stack up?Instructions: Copy this into your NOTES. Look at the list and put an ‘x’ after those you have read.

Gone

As of Friday, this will be gone.

Eric and some friends are going to put up our new fence on Saturday.  Hopefully the cement for the posts will dry fast and they can get it done in a day or two. 
If anyone else wants to help put up a fence, give us a call.  Don’t everyone volunteer [...]

Kenny’s 5th birthday party – part 2

We had planned to have Kenny’s birthday party at Marty pool but as it got closer and closer to b-day party day, the weather looked worse and worse.  The day before the party we decided to move the party indoors to Matt Ross (aka my home away from home).  Which, of course, meant that it [...]

Happy 5th Birthday Kenny!

Kenny,
Happy birthday to my favorite 5 year old in the whole entire world.  You are such a sweet, intelligent boy and I’m so very proud to call you mine.

And as we like to say to each other, I love you more than anybody will ever love you.
Love,
Mom

Saturday afternoon (after each and every one of us took a nap) – Kovar/McCullough family reunion (Eric’s side) at Shawnee Mission Park.  We had a great time!

Sunday - carnival at our church.

Luke’s 2 year pictures

We took Luke up to The Picture People today to get his 2 year pictures taken (I’m only a month behind).  Besides running laps around the store, he was really good and we had a ton of pictures to choose from.  This is the one that we’re handing out to family:

And I just had to [...]
