I found a great new purpose for Jenga blocks...building blocks! Ok, the game is great. My kids love it...but I get so tired of rebuilding it. Plus, these little blocks can build so many great things and take up so little space. When I go to garage sales, I now keep my eyes out for jenga sets (for only $1 of course).
And yes, Declan's mohawk is a little early this year. I wanted to wait until summer, but when a 5 year old demands the hawk, what can you do?
Honestly, the twins play really great together. Of course there is occasionally the 'brotherly love' fights, but mainly sharing, kindness, and togetherness for these 2.
We celebrated David's 40 something birthday this year. Another strawberry poke cake...this time instead of a plain whipped cream topping, I whipped in some cream cheese and also added some extra jello...even better!
David's birthday party (with the family) at the bowling ally. These kids love to bowl. And yes, we even have our own bowling balls and bowling shoes!
Easton almost beat his dad with 121 points.
Rough game for everyone but Declan.
David killed it this game.
I love Easton's bowling name...'Grizzly Pig'.
Cache rocked a 117.
The boys.
Cache's 1st grade music performance. I went during the day because he really hates these kind of things and I wasn't sure if I would be able to get him to go back for the night performance. The kids also had their fundraiser 'fun run', hence why so many kids are in the white/blue/orange shirts. The school raised $20,000!
Declan and the amazing magnet line.
Declan showing off his missing tooth...by far the youngest to have lost a tooth in our family...and the other tooth is already coming in!
Welcome back garage sale season! All this fun loot for about $10!
This great bunch of legos for $5...yes... just $5! About 50 lego men and tons of pieces.
A random table I picked up for free off the curb...now a convenience shelf in my front closet.
The coolest wicker basket for $3...storage options are limitless :)
Hmmm...when you leave a cooler on the front porch and the twins decide to swing.
Dad and Xander rocking out to something...probably primary songs.
Declan doesn't exactly love his picture taken most days. Sometimes I photo bomb him.
The twins were invited to Leif's birthday part and were given pieces of the map to tape together to help with the treasure hunt. They are very excited for their adventure.
Declan the tree hugger and climber.
We went to Westmoreland State Park this Memorial weekend with some friends. The boys were quick to find a blue-tailed skink.
We did the coolest nature center activity. The boys each got an owl pellet to dissect. This one was staring right at us. The best part, each kid was suppose to pay $5 and the lady let our group of 5 do it for free!
Xander the glowing-wrist-band super hero.
Westmoreland is known for its fossilized shark teeth. They get washed off the upper cliffs and onto the beach below. We combed the beach for hours!!!!! But we came up with some great teeth and fossils.
The visitor center provided this chart to help us identify the most common shark teeth and fossils we would find.
Our friend's the Tikalsky's enjoying a cold cereal morning...genius!
The Macphersons set up a great slackline between the trees.
Easton and Natalie
Enjoying a small portion of our geotrax.
I signed the twins up for a cute home school soccer team.
They are so cute and actually quite good. It helps being the youngest in the family.
I love how they both wanted the gold shin guards, so they each settled for one.

One of the boys' favorite places is Chuck E Cheese. Painful, but oh how they love it.
