Happy Birthday Michael!

It's hard to believe but my little Michael is now 11! He just finished the fifth grade and will be going onto the 6th! Where oh where does the time go? Even as I am writing this he is at a Boy-Scout over-nighter.

For his birthday among other things, he got a new lantern with a compass and a radio. (That is also a wind-up) New baseball mitts, a sleeping bag and other accessories. Early in the morning before school he opened up his presents and went off to school with cupcakes in hand. We also had dinner with the family at night.


Two of his favorites



Jared is a tad jealous!


I think he likes it!

Off to the dentist

It was time for their check-ups and cleaning so off to the dentist we went! They each had a couple of "pin-hole cavities" (according to the dentist) so they needed to be filled. Poor Jared was just SURE he was going to be cavity free! But he forgot about those back teeth!
