Chucky and Anna have a birthday!

Michael is all smiles

Chucky requested cheesecake and Anna is having a dairy-free
Tofutti Cutie Ice Cream Sandwich. I think Elizabeth is wondering where the real cake is.


The haul!

The crowd is riveted as the archery expert gives a demonstration.

Jessica, however, is unimpressed and, quite frankly, questions his terminology. What he referred to earlier as a longbow was clearly a flatbow, discerned by its non-recurved limbs.

Clash of the Titans!
(I love this picture. That expression on Cesar's face is priceless......."Freedom!")

Notice the wide array of weaponry

Ricardo is Mr. Charismatic

Does it get any girlier than this?
(Dallin adamantly picked out this doll for "his best girl". Anna thinks he's really outdone himself. They are quite the couple.)


My son, Chucky, and my daughter, Anna, have birthdays two days apart. This year we celebrated both on Monday for Family Home Evening. But, with the addition of my brother-in-law's six foster children(now in the adoption process), what used to be a small uneventful family gathering is now a week-long Birthday Extravaganza!
Two of Dave's six are one year apart and on the very same day. So, on April 4th Elizabeth and Michael turned 5 and 4 respectively, on April 7th Chucky turned 5, and on April 9th Anna turned 3(not to mention the two birthdays just weeks before in March). They all had a blast.
With Johnny's first born having arrived at the end of February(post and picture to come), a recent spring break visit from Amber and her kids, and Emily and Greg moving in across the street a few weeks ago, we are blessed with an abundance of cousins and loving it!
