My Family Birthday Party - January 2012

 We spent the day at my alma mater for my nephew's basketball game.

 B-rad is getting all sorts of basketball sporty up in here.

 Reliving our glory days.

 Showing Ron what's up.

 I am not sure which one of us thought these photos would be a good idea.

 But we are looking good.

 This guy is practically in high school already.

 If you are wondering where the North Gym is, we found it.

 Very bizarre being back on the old stomping grounds.

 I drove past this house on my way home. I have a very vivid memory of having Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup for the first time in this house.

 These two are the best of friends.

 Once again, another brilliant idea.

 We got the entire family in on it.

 Why eat just one Cheetos when you can have two?

 We took at least 53 Cheeto photos.

 Oatmeal birthday cake. Favorite! Thanks, Mommy.

Halloween 2011 - Part IV

Halloween night I stopped by to see my nephews.

They killed it in the costume department.

I love how excited they get to go Trick or Treating.

I didn't get to see Ron, but this photo was sent to me.

He was a spaceship.

Rad.

Oh, and Jordy made the costume.

NBD.

Adventures in Babysitting - May 2011

This is how Jord reminds himself to leave me the car seat.

Loves this.
Ron: Do you have any music for our walk?
Me: Just my ipod and earphones.
Ron: Let's share! I will show you.

It was totes raining.

He just could not get enough of the music.

If I accidentally pulled his earphone out due to my giant stature I got in biiiig trouble.

Big.

Four year old hipster alert.

This guy can run for hours upon hours.

Ro-boat the explorer.

There are no words for how much I love this guy.

So happy I get to be part of his amazing life.

Happiness is this little human...

Dedicated to Moriah.
Proof this blog is not dead.
I would never slice this out of my life.

Broken. March 2011

This is what happens at Kangaroo Zoo when you try to be Mary Lou Retton.

General Lee - March 2011

Book reports are serious now and require a costume.

Cousin Time - March 2011

In March my cousin passed through town for exactly 93 minutes.
We picked her up, ate breakfast, reminisced, and caught up on life.
She has grown up into a kick ass chick who is a firefighter and Crossfit instructor.
She will probably kick your ass.
Love you forever Abs and I am so happy I was able to see you.

This is what entertaining Ron at breakfast looks like.
He really does not know what to do with these crazy antics.

Two crazy Capricorns.

Christmas 2010

There were not many pictures taken on Christmas.
Probably because none of us really felt like celebrating and my camera was broken thanks to the gallon of Gatorade I spilled on it.
I did get a picture of Mr. Hipster 2010 though.
Awesome.

Christmas Eve 2010

Candia made an amazing Christmas Eve dinner.
Guess who cannot use chopsticks?
Yours truly...
but who cares when there are glow sticks around.

I am really not sure where these glow sticks came from, but they turned into endless amounts of Christmas Eve fun.

Ron was over glow sticks and wanted to play Candy Land.

We play Xtreme Candy Land.
I bet Brint Paul is so sad he opted out on this night right about now.
The silly bandz he gave me really came in handy.
