How to have fun at big brother's baseball game, when you don't really like to sit still and watch the game ...

I did actually take pictures of the game too,
see I got one of Gus scoring and one of him at bat:



I think they were watching from heaven for a while:

I Heart Faces - Week 25 "Celebrating Teens"

This week at I ♥ Faces their theme is "Celebrating Teens". Ten years ago I took a picture very similar to the one I'm posting today, two girls best of friends and their little brothers hanging out on a swing set in the back yard ... but there were no teenagers in that photo 10 years ago. But today ... well, today they look so grown up that this mama might have to cry




Why do they grow up so quickly?
Why does ten years from now seem so far away?
But ten years ago seems just like yesterday?

That was then ... This is today

That was then (10 years ago)



This is today


Mikayla and Nadia met on Mikayla's 4th birthday (also thier first day of preschool) ... Two years of preschool together and they've best of friends since. Their younger brothers have benefited from this friend ship too. In my mind these kids are still the little ones ... but they are growin' up!

I Heart Faces - Week 23

This week should be full of really fun shots over at I ♥ Faces! Its all about PLAY this week:

This is the week to show off your little child, older children or oldest children (a.k.a. your spouse and friends) hard at play. This theme is very open - whatever you think fits the theme of "play"...just make sure that there is a human face showing in your photo entry as well.

Here is my entry, taken a couple months ago at our son's birthday party:


We took our middle child and nine of his friends to the LEGO store in the Mall of America for his 8th bday party. Lots of play time happening there! I will be the first to admit I still love to play with LEGOS, so glad my boys enjoy them, too.
