Summertime

We have had a great summer. Isaac turned 3, Benjamin was told he has a big head by the doctor, Jennifer and I were very busy with youth groups, VBS, and other fun things with church.

Here are some pictures now for viewing.

Uncle Nate and Aunt Maren and Eowyn visited

We don't have any pictures of Uncle Nate or Aunt Maren...so we don't know if they were really here or not. But Eowyn came to visit. Isaac and Ben loved being around her. Isaac loved to tease her and enjoyed it when she tried to pick on him. Especially when they were on the treadmill.

They also gave new meaning to 4 hands piano

NJ State Park

Pop quiz...who does Benji resemble in this photo?

Isaac and his buddy Carson took their families on a day trip to a local park in NJ. We encountered some fun, some sun (burn), and 2 bears named Ditka and Walter Payton.

Fortunately, we saw the bear lumbering down the path before he or she could hunt us down. Of course, we never saw the 2 hikers that came down the path after we left.

But we did have a good time.

Bronx zoo

We had a day excursion with our friends Jeremy and Laura. The Bronx zoo was the destination, but the choice exhibit of the day was the new playground that Tiki Barber "helped" build.

Spring Fling

Here are a few pictures of the last few months. More to come.

April 09

We have had a busy couple of months. Isaac is enjoying his speech therapy and it's definitely working. Benjamin is walking faster each day and enjoys his 5:30 wake up calls. Mommy: not so much. Cousin Zach and Cousin Jill came out to visit for a week. Anneliese came as well. Sorry if I misspelled it. Isaac and Benjamin loved having the baby around. I think Anneliese wondered where her brother was the whole time. Isaac and Ben are best friends.

March 09

Grandpa Records was one of the finest men anyone could ever know. He was a pastor of many years, faithful to his bride of 62 some years, and a great father, grandfather, and great grandfather. He is now with the Lord, going home on Sunday afternoon.

Last night after church we watched a little bit of the wbc baseball classic. Isaac sat Elmo down in front of the TV and kept saying "Elmo, baseball." I think he thinks Elmo is his best friend and he wanted to watch baseball with him.

Spring is in the air. We are excited about the warmer weather, going on walks, and spending time in our lovely backyard. The boys are getting bigger everyday, and occasionally even loving each other.
