Pictures at the Park

Today we went to the park to try and get some pics of the boys. Nothing fancy, but here is what we came up with. Enjoy.





Jakob likes to imitate a boy in his Barney movie. He thinks it is so funny when the boy is pretending to sleep by the tree. He always runs to the base of the tree and pretends he is sleeping.
They would rather play in the water.



Hope you all had a great Tulip Time.
All our love,
Rick, Mandi, Jakob & Ethan

Baking with Daddy

We came home from Sunday school today and decided to do some baking. Originally we were looking for brownies, but must be out. Cake is the next best thing. The boys love to help bake. :-)


After all this, the cake did turn out.
Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there.
All our love,
Rick, Mandi, Jakob & Ethan

Jakob's Glasses

Let the Glasses adventure begin.
We arrived at the eye doctor at 4:00 on Friday. The nice man put Jakob's glasses on so he could adjust the fit. Once they were on, Jakob proceeded to put them up on his forehead and say PAPA and walk to the door like he was going to leave. It was really cute, but needless to say it wasn't time to leave. Through out the evening we put the glasses on for a few minutes here and there. By 9:00 pm they were broke. I fixed them on Saturday after finding a tiny screw driver. However this morning they were broke again. Guess where we are going tomorrow. :-) Here are a few pics anyway.


Enjoy - the adventure is just beginning.

Tulip Time 2010

What a great day for a parade! After some rain this morning the weather cleared, the sun came out and we were able to have a great ride on a float in the parade today. Jakob was intrigued by the ride. He did not like our Mascot Willie Washer at all. He did however enjoy all the bubbles on the float and riding with his friends. When we had about 1/2 mile left he started waving and saying HI to everyone. Ethan on the other hand sat very still, waved very nicely and then fell asleep. A fun time was had by all. We are very tired tonight though. Enjoy the pictures of the boys. Planning for more on Sat even though the weather sounds questionable.









Happy Tulip Time.
All Our Love,
Rick, Mandi, Jakob & Ethan
