Sam just celebrated his 5th birthday!!

We had a blast with our Jeppsen cousins! This hat is a tradition for Chase's family, and Sam soon took hold of the idea!


Sam's second cake!


Sam's third cake was made chocolate and camoflauge by request!

You think that this guy has huffed and puffed enough to blow out candles this year!!

Hair Day with Dad!

We (or I should say Ted) has started to do "fun hair time" with the boys! Both Sam and Josh like to see each other getting funny hair, but they don't necessarily like it done on themselves. Josh was a little more willing so he gets to be the star on the blog this week!

Maurie's Blessing - March 30th


Becca with Maurie!

(Doesn't that look like Sam! We will have to make sure to wear bows a little more!!)


This was a picture of Maurie concentrating on her mom

Maurie is an angel when she chooses to be! I stole this group of pictures from Heather since the batteries in my camera were dead (I recharged it the night before, but I must have pushed a button at some point. Thanks for saving me Heather)

Maurie's Blessing Day was great! We had so much family there it was wonderful! Ted did a great job despite some of the crying! And we were able to enjoy ourselves at Mom and Dad Hartman's afterwards for a small lunch! Thanks to everyone for supporting us!



Trip to Dinosaur Museum

Sam and Josh showing their silly faces!

Sam's favorite dinosaur (because it was black)

Their favorite part was playing dinosaurs in the water/sand troughs!

We had a fun day at Thanksgiving Point a couple of weeks ago thanks to our good friend Paulette finding us really cheap tickets! We enjoyed a 3-D movie about dinosaurs, as Josh would say in a mild tone "that scares me," free popcorn and drinks! It was great fun!
I think we could have spent several more hours digging for bones or playing in the water, but Maurie could only last so long before she became impatient!

Our new kitty!



















"George" is our new entertainment! Ted surprised us with this kitty that he found at the shelter for our anniversary! Thanks honey!
