This week in life

This is wild to see how life passes us by in hyper speed.

Kenneth our 19 yr old college student thinks that parent are the bottomless bank for money.
(we wish)
Keith our 17yr old going on 30 is at the age that all parents know NOTHING!
(if only he knew that all 17 yr old think they know everything...wait until he is 22 and find out how much we learned as parents in 5 years)
Kyle is in the early teens and is starting to act like one more often the not.
(on word ATTITUDE, if he only knew how much it hurts us)
Brett our 7 yr old says some of the sweetist things then turns around and spoils it by saying something foolish.
(Brett needs to learn to look around before he says something that is not a good word to make sure that his parents are not around)
Ruby our 1 yr old has learned to climb just about everything she can try.
(she trusts that we will always be there to catch her, we try but one of these time we will miss)

The sad thing about us as parents......these may seem troublesome but a few years down the road we will want is all back again......life moves very fast before we know it is gone.....

Pictures and journals to preserve these moments will be all we leave behind

Ruby's Birthday

Ruby's first birthday. She thought is was really funny when we started to sing happy birthday to her. Ok, ya she did know that camera was on her and she started to ham it up with the cupcake. I was surprised that she actually ate the cupcake, ok she wore most if it.

Grandma visits

We had the pleasure of having Grandma Williams come for a visit this week. Ruby really enjoyed see her and went to her. LynAnn found out how much Ruby really does look like her now when they were looking at old photo's. I guess I should tell her how much see looks like her mom.

Kyle's Birthday

Kyle was very luck to have his birthday fall on spring break. Although he keep looking throughout the house for his presents he never was able to find them. Here is Kyle, Brett and Ruby sitting in front of the computer watching a movie.

(the best place to hide things is to not hide them at all!)

mad science

At the fair they had a MAD SCIENTIST. It is surprising how the kids love liquid nitrogen.

science fair

Brett entered a science fair. His bug collection (bug grave yard) had many good things. It was good to see that Brett's was the only one that was actually worked on by the kid. Most of the others it looked like the parents had their hands in it more then the kids.

It was a beautiful day for Kyle's last day for snowboarding. He improved greatly in his three lessons. Hopefully next year he will be able to follow me but we shall see(far picture).
