A Whole Mess O' Stuff

Guess it's been a bit since I last updated, so here you go! Starting from the most recent. :)
Today was Mike's 33rd birthday. The kids were SO excited to give him his gifts this morning. They did most of the picking out for him....although I did "guide" them to certain items! Tee hee! (Notice Stella's "bed-head"!!!) They were most excited about this gift for Mike! I think it is more a gift for them!! But I do know that all 3 of them will have a blast playing with it. :)

With his "Crabby Patty" birthday cake.

We headed to MA over the weekend for my 15 year High School reunion. It also happened to be the same weekend as Beggar's Bash, where children can trick-or-treat through a park and stop at booths sponsored by local businesses. It is always a big hit with the kids. Porter is playing Plink-O here to win a prize.

Stella decided to be a skeleton this year and Porter a spider.

Hanging out at my mom and dad's house.

Stella found out she could climb up the weeping willow tree all by herself! A very big accomplishment for her!

My class reunion was so much fun. I graduated with 42 people and 27 were able to make it back for part of the festivities. Friday we went to the Homecoming football game then headed uptown. Saturday we had a very nice meal at the Country Club and a great time socializing. Here are most of the peeps who made it back for the class of 1995 bash! :)

Porter riding bike at my parents.

Dad and Stella playing "catch", Stella could play this for HOURS!These are from a couple weeks ago. Porter is VERY into Legos right now. I guess he "creates" better if he is wearing the Lego container on his head?!?!?

Steve and Linda stayed with on our their way home from St. Louis a couple weeks ago, a couple pics of them reading with the kiddos.

I guess I should keep a closer eye on the children, I caught them "body painting" themselves instead of the paper a while ago!!!!!

This photo just cracks me up! Could a 3 year old look any more bored!!!!!!???!?!?!?!
