I can't believe it's been 10 years since Dawson joined our family. Time sure flies. This kid is amazing and I love him so much.
He is the best babysitter and soooo good to his sisters! He knows how to have a good time and is such a good friend. I like that he wants to hang out with me and enjoys going on walks with me. Awesome lawn mower and gardener. Good student and great athlete! I am so glad Dawson is in our family!
Geo caching with some friends for his birthday party!
Yeah this was a bit messy - kids loved it but it was a bit much for me to handle as I'm watching all the flour go everywhere.
He wanted drums really bad, but our house will not accommodate that big of an instrument - so we got him an electric one. It's a Yamaha and it's pretty good quality. He has fun with the different beats. He and Josh were working on "Teach me how to Jimmer". That was fun!
JD - oh how we love him! We had a fabulous dinner on his birthday. He did have to help quite a bit but it was worth it. He grilled the tri-tip steak - yum, we cooked artichokes - yum, I baked the asparagus- yum, some rice (didn't really need that after all), and some rolls! Holy Cow - JD and I didn't even eat the brownies and cake that night - we were soooo stuffed! It was awesome. Marissa had her own artichoke for the first time - loved it. She was so funny as she started eating the wrong side.
We've decided our kids like the strangest vegetables. If you ask them what their favorites are they will tell you - artichokes, broccoli, asparagus, green peppers! Funny!
Marissa was more excited than JD - she could hardly contain herself!
And Brielle loved the brownie and ice cream!
