Happy Birthday Xander Dear

A little blog catch up. Xander had his 9th birthday
back in January. I figure I better blog about it now
before Savannah's 12th comes around.

Anyone who knows Xander, knows he plans his birthdays
the day after his birthday. Yes, an entire year
of planning what foods he would like to eat, what his cake
will look like, what decorations will be used.
He studies toy magazines to look at what comes
with the most pieces or looks the most fun.
This boy eat, sleeps, and breathes birthdays.

For starters, he was surprised with chocolate
chip pancakes and candles.
He had a birthday cake too, but those pictures are
in my other camera and the batteries are dead.

Here he is trying to decide if it is alright
for Ruby to share in the blowing of the
candles duty. This is quite a big
ordeal for him, but in the end, he did
happily share the blowing out duties.

How fun! We have one that overly plans birthdays at our house, too. She (Eirelynn)insists on telling everyone about the details over and over, far, far in advance. Sometimes she creates a song about her future birthday. One day we'll laugh about it. I hope.

Love,

Girls Camp

 This year, Savannah got to attend her very first girls camp. Here she is with Morgan, another first timer.  Not sure how Savannah would have done without Sister Skroski. She showed Savannah the ropes and really took care of her in my absence.  Savannah all excited to leave. I can only guess what these last few pictures are. Savannah had a great time and Larry was there as a priesthood chaperone so she was not completely alone. This summer was a summer of firsts for my girl. She had her first girls camp, her first youth Temple trip and her first talk in sacrament. Wow!

Merry Christmas

Tennessee Adventures with the Hurts

 This summer, Ethan was able to go to Denzil's for 2 weeks. Of course he had a blast, and came back a new boy. He learned to ride a bike, and came home darker if that s at all possible. To drop Ethan off, we met Jason & Sheba , in Knoxville. Sheba's GPS found this neat park in rather a shady area of Knoxville. Emalene is a good model, always willing to pose when I say smile.  Here is my little Ruby in deep concentration.  Ethan did not even look back when he left me.  Gator with the big boys.  Emalene in her favorite color, and Ruby in hers. How cute are they?  A group shot at the drop off.  These monkey bars, kept the kids entertained for a while. Each one tried to make it across. Not sure any succeeded.  Here is Gator trying to reach.  Finally he found a sucker.  Look at him hang by himself.  Denzil looks very unsure about this. We thought we could get a group shot, but the wheel kept spinning and little arms got tired.  The two amigos.  A group shot at t
