snap!

Message from Mommy-----

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life. It goes on. (~Robert Frost)



Thanks to everyone for your thoughts, prayers, and hugs over this past difficult week. We are very blessed to have such wonderful family and friends. And Jaxon's smile and laugh sure do help a lot too.

Here's what we've been up to over the weekend:



Dad taught me how to throw snaps. We threw them all over the front steps. I left a few so that the mail man would step on them and be surprised.

Snaps are pretty cool. But I think I prefer the real thing. Sparklers!

On Sunday we had uncle Eddy, auntie Jenny, and grandma and grandpa over for dinner to celebrate uncle Eddy's birthday.

Grandma dressed me up like a girl. What is she trying to do to me?

But then she took me for a spin in the dumptruck, so I forgave her. We had SO much fun!

Happy Memorial Day everyone!

my dad, the graduate

This weekend, mommy and me threw a surprise graduation party for dad. We invited a bunch of friends and family over to let him know how proud we are of him for graduating from the Carlson School of Business with his MBA. I hope he had fun, even if he did have to cook and clean for his own party!

I had lots of girlfriends to play with! Here I am showing them how to play with my puzzles. I'm giving Addison the cold shoulder because she wouldn't let me kiss her earlier. Gotta play a little hard to get with girls these days.

Here's me and aunty Jenny. Everyone keeps trying to get me to look at the camera. But I know grandma is right there with more strawberries and I am way more interested in that!

Here's me playing with grandma and grandpa. They gave me lots of food today. I'm stuffed!

Here's dad after his ceremony- we were all really proud of him, and grandma seemed especially happy that he did not wear jeans for the ceremony. Good job dad. Wish I could have been there watching you get your degree.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to the best, most fun, kindest mom in the world. I love you mom, even if I can't say it yet!

Mom and I had such a fun weekend- we went to West Fargo to hang out with Grandma Walker while all the grown up boys were fishing. I don't get to go yet. But I had way more fun playing with Max and Carly and running circles around Grandma, literally! I think she is gonna be tired today ;-)

I'm sorry I kept stealing the strawberries from you- you deserve a little piece of strawberry... but it's just so funny teasing you!

This cat is so silly. He just lays there all day, but his tail keeps flapping all over the place.

We also got to pretend like it was New Year's Eve with grandma's noisemakers. It took me awhile of making mom blow on this one, but I finally figured it out and could do it myself.

Thanks for the fun weekend grandma- can't wait to see you again!
