The milk solution

So I have decided to just buy the boys regular old milk. The reason I decided to do this was because Meijer advertises that they use no growth hormones in their milk. I know its not organic but the growth hormones where what I was really worried about. That $4 a gallon extra for organic really adds up when you buy 5-6 gallons a week. I feel kind of guilty about not buying whats best for my children but I also need to be smart shopper.

from the mouths of babes.

Every morning when Jason takes his meds, Max runs out to the kitchen and says, "I need my vitamin medication". Its so cute. He also told me the other day, as he was growling, that he was a puma. where does he come up with this stuff. He cracks me up.

I joined the world

I finally caught up with the rest of civilization and got a facebook account. I'm still trying to figure it all out. I already have some friends I haven't talked to in a decade. Its great. I hope to be a little more active on my page than Jason is on his. we'll see how it goes.

A Weekend of Fun

The boys fighting sleep but totally denying being tired.

Max and Micah both love the water and grandma loves taking them in.

Micah is modeling this very hip life jacket.

Katie and a very cute sleeping puppy.

Grandma and the boys. Notice Jason in the back mesmerized by the spray cheese.

Ode to Elton John.

Ode to Micah and his ode to Elton John.

Uncle Rory and Max cruising the pond.

Lance and Brooke.

Me getting my baby fix with adorable baby Blake.

Jason has to get in on that action too.

I love this picture.

Saturday we went to my mom's house and went out on the boat. My sister, brother-in-law and niece came down from Alpena to join us. The boys had a riot playing in the water and my sister's new puppy seemed to enjoy herself too. After the boat we ate and great dinner, kidnapped my niece and headed home. Katie and I went to see the proposal after the boys went to bed. I didn't expect it to be so funny. I was laughing through the entire movie. I loved it. We get to keep Katie until Tuesday and then my mom steals her back until Thursday when she has to go back home. She is getting to ready to take driver's training, that makes me feel so very old. Its nice to have her here for a couple of days.

Today we went to Jason's parent's house to celebrate his birthday and his brother Lance's birthday. It was a nice relaxing evening and Jason and I got our baby fix holding baby Blake. Fun.

A Birthday BBQ

Trevor brought this cake from the Dairy Phil, he knows that Jason is only 36 but he thought it would be clever to make him older.

Max and a sparkler. I love this picture.

We put the boys to work at a pretty young age. Now that Micah is one, he has to start earning his keep.

Jason makes an ugly woman. We kind of think he looks like Mikey from Orange Co. Choppers.

Sorry Sharpie, but you also make an ugly woman.

We had some friends over last night for Jason's birthday. We cooked out on the grill and had some drinks and made fun of Jason getting older. Trevor got Jason a gift bag full of gag gifts. This provided hours of entertainment for both adults and children. Good times.

Happy Birthday Jason!

Happy Birthday jason. We hope you have a great birthday. We love you so much even if you are getting old...........he he he.

A Tiger's Game

Aaron and Melissa. I don't really think they knew I was taking their picture. They are usually a little more photogenic then this.

We are dorks aren't we?

Happy 50th birthday Randy. We hope you had a great time.

Yesterday we went to a Tiger's game with a bunch of people from work. We celebrated Randy's 50th birthday. It was tons of fun. There were 13 of us total and we took a motor home down. Let me tell you, that is the way to travel. It was a beautiful night, I pigged out on stadium food and the Tigers won, you just can't ask for a better night than that.
