He LOVED the chalk best, he made a road the entire length of the back sidewalk with it.

How the years fly by!  Our first son is 7!

(This is a belated Birthday posting, this mommy is playing catch up)

 Vaughn William Roberts

Great lover of trucks and anything with wheels.

The chocolate cake was made by his beloved Aunt Shell. (above)

(She dug the cars out of the toy box and washed them too)

 Daddy and Vaughn- who wouldn't love a face like that?

 The best eater in the family, many times out eating mommy.

Dinner consitsted of hamburgers, brocolli, french fries and banana bread.

 He had to wait to open this gift all day, it just sat their taunting him "Open me little boy"

This gift was good enough for ALL the boys.

Vaughn is always told he get's a great birthday because he usually shares his birthday with family because of it being so near Thanksgiving.  I was in labor with him on Thanksgiving day and had him by 1:40am on the Friday after Thanksgiving. This year he had the following people at his party:

Ussins (Mommy, Daddy and all siblings)

Aunt Shell and Uncle Frank

Grandpa Lund and Uncle Christpoher (who is only 4)

Uncle Mike

Karagen's Birthday!

 The Outfits from Grammy

 Karagen and Jonathan went on a bike ride.

 Mommy and the birthday girl.

 She received the rose from a neighbor for her birthday.

 Dinner of Macaroni (her favorite) baked corn  and roast deer meat & gravy.

 Decorating her cake.

 The finished product- zuchini cake, yummy!

Pure delight!

We started the day with a walk, just her and I.  I was suprised how fast she walked, she has long legs- like her Daddy.  The fog was thick and we heard a plane fly overhead, but could not see it.  In my mind I could still see her as a little baby, cuddled close to my breast, then I looked down (though not too far as she is just above my shoulder now) and saw a budding young lady.  Caring, thoughtful and trying to mature though she is still a child.  So helpful and capable.

We had pancakes, scrambled eggs and sausage for breakfast.

We did our school work.

She went on a bike ride with Jonathan.

We had our birthday celebration after dinner.

Happy Birthday Karagen.  Our beautiful little girl!  We love you so much!

Look Who's 4!

Jonathan put the scooter together and then we tied ballons to it.

The balloons were almost as popular as the new scooter : )

Good morning Birthday boy!

To the sweet, precocious little man who enjoys coloring on our wall (see artwork behind him)

Loves to take the scissors to anything, like his hair, his bed sheets, teddy bears....

"It is so hard to wake up!"

"Aww, do I have to open my eyes?"

Silas is such a morning person, always has that precious smile!

Pure delight!

Pancakes for breakfast, and when asked what he wanted for dinner he kept insisting on ham sandwiches, so we had those for lunch.

Don't you know the best part of a birthday cake is the icing?

Carrot cake, with his requested items and  graphics.

Mom, can I lick the truck?

Four years ago, this precious little boy joined our family and our love for him has grown.  He keeps his mommy and daddy smiling and fills our days with so much joy.  He holds his own in our little clan and I love to hear him say " I lub you Mommy"!

Emmaus's 5th Birthday!

Birthday Pictures with Mommy and Daddy!

Ballerina Outfit!

Grammy made her 4 skirts- 3 of them came with shirts for complete outfits! Thank you Grammy, they were beautiful!

The bag from Grammy and Pop Pop.

Her first Princess cake- not perfect, but she loved it!

Waiting for her cake.

Cupcakes for school, Daddy took her to school with them!

Breakfast, Monday May 2, French toast, scrambled eggs and sausage per her request.

Stretchy lizard, the childrens favorite out of all the gifts.

Art set from Aunt Shell! Thank you Aunt Shell!

Don't you know it's easier to blindfold than to wrap the gifts, and there's a lot less mess : )

Birthday cupcakes on Saturday April 30 when Aunt Shell and Frank came to visit.

Birthday Blessings

Jonathan made me a delcious carrot cake from scratch, with homemade cream cheese frosting!

He also made me lasagna from scratch, his first time making it and it was delicious!
Look at all those candles : ) I turned 29, and according to Karagen I am "OLD!"

So VERY BLESSED!

I look a little tired here, it was the end of the day and I had worked 8 hours at the post office...and with being pregnant, I was worn out, but happy indeed!
