Sawyer's Birthday Video

Happy 5th Birthday Sawyer!

We love you so :)

Sawyer is 5

Sawyer is 5!

A video is in the works, should be done by tomorrow night! :)

This year brought:

• Vacations: Lake Powell, Utah (twice? three?) and camping.
• Skills: Sawyer is now an excellent swimmer, swims the length of the pool multiple times!  Rides his bike without training wheels.  Improved his skills in soccer and basketball :)  And he can actually help me clean!! Hooray!
• Smarts: He is learning how to read, working on sight words, loves math, taught himself to count to 100 and finished his first year of preschool, dual language kindergarten two months away!
• Funny: After explaining that hamburgers are made from beef which comes from cow he had a total light bulb moment.  "That's why they call it Old McDonald's!!"
• Likes: Superheroes, Harry Potter, Avatar, Mario, Sonic, Cake Boss, dogs, swimming, riding his bike, playing PIG (bball), pizza, lemonade and ice cream!

This was a list off the top of my head, things I don't want to forget.  There is so much I could say about this boy and how much I love and adore him.  Putting this video together just reminds me how smitten I am with him...does that ever stop?? 

Happy Birthday Sawyer!!

We love you!

Ollie's 3rd Birthday Video

I am way overdue for an update, and I am so sad and disappointed in myself for not keeping up on my family blog. I guess living closer to family and Quilt Story taking more and more of my time, I left the blog go by the wayside. But I do plan on doing a catch-up by the end of January.  But today is Oliver's 3rd Birthday video.  It takes me a couple hours to do these videos, but I really hope that I do them forever!  We watch them all the time and I think it's just a fun way to document our lives.
