Happy Birthday Mommy!

Today is Mommy's Birthday! Last year on her birthday, Daddy took Mommy and us for a nice drive and we went to a French restuarant called Luc's. Here is a video of us last year in the morning on Mommy's Birthday:

Mommy is at work right now but we will surely celebrate her birthday tonight!

An email note and picture from Grandma

Received this email and photo from Grandma:

I know this is such a "grandma thing", but while I was at your house today Luke puckered up his lips and Amanda gave him a kiss. It was so cute and the camera was there, so what could I do? This was totally out of the blue. They were both in the basket a few minutes later. It was definitely a fun basket day.

Closeups

Sharon, one of the kids' teachers at daycare, took these pictures - thank you Sharon!

Fun outside

Thanks again Sharon for these great pictures!

Family Vacation in Bozeman, MT

These pictures were taken during our hike at Palisades Falls in the Gallatin National Forest.

We spent a week with Julie, Craig, and Baby Carl at their house in the cowboy-chic city of Bozeman, MT. It was a first for many things including

- we met our beautiful new nephew Carl

- we saw the new Hergert home and its sweeping views - we stayed there the whole week and it was great
- first time we visited "the property"

- first time our kids took an airplane ride (actually, 6 airplanes) and they did great! It was even relaxing for Mike & I. Here are a few pictures from the week.

Here is Mike with the kids at the future site of Mom & Dad's summer home.

Below you'll find Luke sharing Cheerios with Henry:

And here we have Amanda investigating Carl!
