April 21st - Family Portraits

We had our family portraits taken at Sears. The girls who took the pictures were wonderful at getting everyone to smile - especially the boys.





April 23rd - Outside at Holly & Ryan's house

Today we spent the morning at Holly & Ryan's house. The weather was PERFECT, so we spent all of our time in the yard. Coming in from Houston, we enjoyed the lovely soft grass that wasn't full of fire ants like it is at home. Jack enjoyed trying to get close to Lady. She was pretty good at avoiding him.



April 22nd - Jack and Joel

Jack and Joel enjoyed rocking out on the organ. Today we had a little family reunion since many of the relatives hadn't seen Joel and Katherine (or Jack and Espen) for a while.

April 20th - Desert Camo

Grandma bought the boys desert camouflage outfits for Joel's first day in town. He is being mobilized this summer as an Air Force Reservist and is likely going to Afghanistan, although we are all hoping that it will be Phoenix instead.


Joel and Katherine gave Jack his first Mickey Mouse. Yippee!


Espen loved for people to hold him standing up and he would jump and jump.


We have a similar picture to this one from Christmas time.
