Eagles 2013

Just a few of the pictures of the eagles, that hang around during butchering time, that the kids took. 

G's 2nd Birthday!!

She a trouble maker. There is no doubt! Look at that face!! 

Making the cake with me, she got to work the mixer and I think she enjoyed it a little TOO much!!

Mmm chocolate cake mix!! 

Totally enjoyed it :) 

Grandma F and G. 

Things being as they were, BUSY, we had very little time for prep. Grandma helped out by, spur of the moment, decorating the cake for me!! Thanks Mom!! You did a great job. It's a blurry picture but its the best of the lot! 

Opening party supplies! 

Grandpa and S. 

Papa got these blow things.. thankfully they made very little sounds and didn't last long! 

Papa, Grandpa and J were trying to blow up those long balloons. Papa normally has no trouble but none of them managed these tricky balloons!  

E had a sledding mishap which is why her face looks a bit raw! Healing up nicely. 

Trying to make her fingers say 'Two' lol. 

Look at that! I blew it out! 

Here you can better see the cake.. the water was multi colored and the sky had clouds and pink pigs and the water had fish and ducks in it! Great job!! 

The older kids like to raid their boxes and give gifts to the others on birthdays. 

Snazzy in new clothes from Grandma.

Yay I love farm animals!! Oh and her favorite one is....

The PIG!!

It was a fun night.

We did miss Grandma and Grandpa G and Auntie R and M though.. as we celebrated G's last birthday with them. Here is the link. Maybe we ought to have a big party in the summer when you come! 

Banana For S..

J took these pictures. He did a great job but I will have to let him know that next time I have baby spew on my shirt and he's taking pictures he should let me know.... 

ANYWAY!! I did manage to crop most of it out...

S's first bite.. 

Oh wait maybe I'll like it.... 

Nope.. Get that thing out of there!!!

Really?? You are going to persist in shoving food in?? 

I'm getting MADDER!!! AND I WANT THAT SPOON!!! 

And I did something I almost never do...

Thank you for the spoon!! 

He was very unhappy with me and the two bites of banana that he actually MAY have consumed.. But, like any baby, he did love to chew on the spoon....

We'll try again maybe today with cream of wheat and see how he likes that..
