I wanted to wish my BIL Greg a Happy Birthday. Greg is a really fun BIL. He is also a really good Husband and father. I'm glad that he is in our family.

Great Day......................

We had such beautiful weather on Sunday. James and I decided to take advantage of the good weather and we took the boys out and I got this really cute picture of my boys.

It's Here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it's official Jakob is registered for Kindergarten for this coming school year. I'm so excited for him to be starting school. We are not sure if he will be attending all day or half day we find out at the end of the week. I'm having a hard time with the decision on which one to do. Does anyone have any suggestions or word of advice that could help me make the decision.
