Random Stuff

There is so much stuff going on with this post because I haven't posted much lately!! Riley's birthday, Easter, Noah's birthday, and other random stuff. Sorry for so many pics to look at, but at my rate of posting...there tends to be more pics!!

This was at a hotel we went to for Riley's birthday. We all used the pool in the evening and Riley and I just stayed the night for some girl time. It was a nice, relaxing time for us!!

Riley with a new shirt for her birthday





The cake I made for Riley...can't believe she is 7 already!!!

Grandpa B. came to visit which the kids really enjoyed! Riley and Grandpa are having some snuggle time with Riley's new blanket.


My mom took the kids on a Saturday to Fred Meijer Gardens to see the butterflies. I usually attend this outing, but I was out of town with some friends shopping in Michigan City. I think they had a good time though!!




These three did so well taking their pictures on Easter Morning! I have to say, I think I have some pretty good-lookin' kids! I may be biased.

Here are the cousins--minus a few--waiting to get started with the Easter egg hunt! I think Wendy's place is pretty suitable for this kinda thing!

Riley and Keilah checking out their goodies!

Everyone chillin out outside after the egg hunt

Graham and I looking at the baby horses that were born last year. I think Graham enjoyed the golf cart ride the most!

Noah and Graham taking a ride with Great Grandma Wever and Grandma B. I know the golf cart was a hit with all the grandkids!

Brandon was just messing around with the fishing pole and on his second cast he caught this pike! Not too shabby for the first time trying in the season!!

Here's a cupcake Noah had at his friend birthday party.

He wanted the theme of Mario and Luigi from Super Mario Bros. but ya know....they just don't make party stuff in that! So, I had to think of something and did green L's for Luigi and red M's for Mario. He loved it!

Here is the gang he had over for his party. They got pretty rowdy and I was amazed that Graham slept through the whole party with all the noise! Loud fans are a good thing!

Graham was just sitting so nice after he ate his lunch at Noah's family birthday party. I got the camera out and pointed it at him and this is the face I got. I think you can tell he's saying, "Cheese!"

Here's Noah after he blew out his candles. Big man is now 5!!

Noah got so many great gifts from everyone. This is one from us...a Lightning McQueen scooter.

So, I hope this wasn't too much to look at all at once:) We are staying plenty busy and finally getting some spring weather to enjoy. The tulips are opening and pretty soon it will be greenhouse time...my favorite! Enjoy this season, for soon we will be right into summer. I just love this time of year.
