New Chalkboard Wall in Playroom

I decided to paint one of the walls in their playroom with the chalkboard paint. I only went 1/2 way up because it is black paint and didn't want it too dark. The kids love it and have done great with keeping the chalk on that wall only. Below are some pics of them coloring. I would highly recomend this for a playroom if you have one!
As you can see my husband the electrician has not done the outlets yet!
She told me she was drawing a puppy the other day..of course it looked nothing like a puppy but I told her she did a great job anyways. Then we all practiced making shapes. It was fun and a learning tool!


Finally had Cake for Lexi's Bday. (a month late)

My princess
She loved her Tinkerbell cake. It took us a month to get everyones schedules to work out...next year we won't be so late. My little girl is growing up.

Lexi's Birthday Present

We got Lexi a 4-wheeler for her birthday. She got it tonight because we figure it is 2 more weeks longer that she gets to use it...plus she isn't old enought to realize what day she gets it on. Her and Hunter rode them around the yard tonight and were so cute!! She loved it and kept thinking she was such a big girl like her brother.
Her smile says it all!
Since Lexi is so petite she couldn't have a big one like Hunter. Her legs aren't long enough for the pedal. We found this one that is just her size and has a button on the handle bars to make it go. She can use it up to 46 lbs which will last her a couple of years she only weighs about 23 lbs if that. It goes great on the grass and she loved it tonight!

Niabi Zoo 2009

We took the kids to Niabi Zoo this weekend and they has soo much fun. Of course we go every year so for us adults it is getting a little old but we love to see their faces when they see the animals. Oh and of course we have to ride the train at the end of our trip, which I think is their favorite part!!

Our Family


Hunter and Daddy

The kids holding hands and walking.

Emma and Lexi. Lexi got the Giraffe in the shop and had to carry it out. It was almost as tall as her.


We make Lexi and Hunter pose on this same hippo every year. The hippo seems to be getting smaller so I think, Dirk said our kids are just getting bigger!


Daddy on the merry-go-round with the kids.

Meggan and Brad's Wedding

Hunter and Lexi were in Meggan's wedding. (along with Caleb and Addy). They did pretty good walking down the aisle but when it came to pictures they didn't do too great. I was just glad they did what they were supposed to do after we spent the money for them to be dressed up. Below are some pictures of the wedding.
Hunter and Lexi going down the aisle!! YEAH!!
