And the tattoo is finally finished!

Annual Strawberry Picking

I can call it annual if I have done it 2 years in a row right?!?!?

Okay, this last one is not really at the strawberry fields... but it's cute anyway.

Damion's first Baseball GAME!

That was a miss... in fact... all of them were. But that's okay... he made some hits in later games!

And even More beach

More Beach

Look at my little STRONG man!! When did he get to be a little boy??

North Myrtle Beach Trip

Kids are so resilient. They loved being on the beach and they even enjoyed wading in the water... of course I stayed up on the beach because the water was FREEZING!

The Zippo factory in Bradford

ALL ZIPPOS!!! SO COOL!

ART from Zippos that were damaged!

Easter Morning at Grams

Trip to Pennsylvania

On the way up... thank goodness!!

Fat Cat Accounts

Our bank offers childrens accounts called "Fat Cat" accounts for children. Each child gets an ID card with their picture on it. They also get a "passbook" to keep track of their deposits and withdrawals. Damion was so excited to go and put his birthday money in his account!!

Here he meticulously learned to fill out his deposit slip all by himself.

So patiently waiting in line for the next teller...


Swiping his ID card so that his account information is pulled up for the teller...

Receiving his receipt and having the teller sign his passbook with his deposit.

And of course... Logan wanting to swipe his card too, except he was not quite tall enough. Brother helped and the teller was so nice... she gave him his own little receipt with his balance on it!

Damion's Birthday

I have no clue what the deal was with this day, but my pictures sucked. None of them came out well... but here are a couple of the boys and Monkey Joe.

Backyard Practice

Damion and Papa practice in the backyard, but Logan has to jump in there and try too. Of course, he doesn't like the helmet... even though it fits Logan better than Damion!

First Baseball Practice
