Happy Birthday Cooper!!!

Happy Birthday to You,

Happy Birthday to You,

Happy Birthday Dear Cooper,

Happy Birthday to You!:)

Today my Coop turns 4 years old! Wow!!! Time has gone by so fast. Cooper is the happiest little boy I have ever seen. He can bring a smile to anyone's face. He loves everyone and He is one of my best friends. He is such a blessing to our family. I remember being pregnant with him and wondering if we would ever get him here with all the trouble I had, but I would go through all of it over and over again for him. It was well worth it! Cooper we love you so much, you are such a fun boy, our lives would be so boring without you. Thanks for being you!

We hope you have a Happy Birthday! ( It was so hard to pick just a few pictures of Cooper. He is so photogenic and loves having his picture taken!)

Sunday Drive

On Sunday we went for a little ride up to Moon Lake. We took sandwiches and chips and ate lunch. It was a bit cold and there was still snow, but it was a fun drive. It seems like we don't get the opportunity enough to just sit and visit as a family. We played "Trivia!" (We actually made this game up when Chase was little, and now the kids can't get enough of it. Every time we are in the car, Chase balls to play trivia!!!) We have the greatest kids and the best family!!



Baby Coleman!!!

The newest addition to our family arrived on March 19th, just a few minutes before midnight. Coleman Jeffrey was born to Jeff & Lorraine last Thursday night. We went and saw them in the hospital on Friday and Coop was so bugged that he could only look at the baby through the nursery window. He was so excited for Lorraine to go home so that he could go over and hold the baby. Well on Saturday, Jeff & Lorraine surprised us and came over for his birthday party, The first thing Cooper said to them when they walked through the door was "Did you bring the baby?" He immediately stopped playing with everyone and went over to the baby to see him. Then a few minutes later he walked into the kitchen to wash his hands so that he could hold him. It was so cute. He is so infatuated with babies. Congrats Jeff, Lorraine, and McKinlee, We are so happy for you guys!!

Guns 'n' Ammo

Jackson and Heather came out for Cooper's Birthday on Saturday. We always have such a great time with them and this time was no different. We went and shot some clay pigeons and the kids shot the .22 and the BB Guns at some targets. We all had a blast - literally!!

Cooper's B-Day Party!!!

Cooper had his birthday party this weekend. We decided to celebrate this year on Saturday so that everyone who wanted to come could. He had so much fun playing games with everybody. We had a little treasure hunt and then had a hot dog roast afterwards. The kids had a ball. Cooper was so excited for presents and his "Sponge Bob" cake! Thanks everyone for coming, We had a GREAT Time!!



Birthday Dinner!

Brian and the boys fixed me a wonderful gourmet dinner for my birthday. My Grandma Blanchard made me some homemade Chicken noodle soup. Then we had a Caesar salad with carrots and dill dip, cocktail shrimp, baked potatoes and filet mignon. It was awesome. They had dinner all ready and served on my new birthday present (New China!!) And to top it all off they helped clear the table and do the dishes. After we got everything cleaned up, we all went and got into the new Hot Tub!! (sorry for no pics, I'll post some soon) It was such a nice birthday! Thanks Boys!

Springtime Fun

Since it is finally starting to get warm the kids have been able to use their Christmas Presents. They love riding their bikes, and especially love the new bike jump. Everyone loves it outside with the warmer weather. Carter absolutely loves the outdoors. Whenever anyone opens the door, Carter is on a mad dash to get outside. He even loves crawling on the grass, which is a first for our kids!

Happy Birthday Brandy!!


I know I am going to be in some pretty deep trouble for this post, but I wanted to tell Brandy how much I love her and to have a Happy Birthday. She is such a great wife and mother and I don't know what I would do without her. She told me that she didn't want me to do anything special for her birthday, but I'm sure that's not what she really meant. :) Happy Birthday Brand, I Love You!!
Brian

She's going to hate these pictures, but my picture database down here at the shop is not the best, so I did what I could.
