I blame it all on Pinterest :)


The boys needed Valentines cards for school and after seeing all the overachieving moms on Pinterest, I knew I needed something good.

So, we started with this....
Luke holding an unopened light saber...

and a little help by Uncle Josh and photoshop, we ended up with this. :) I added a glow stick to be the light saber.

Of course for Drew's we had to go with a football theme. And being that Valentine's is the day of love, I tried to get the boy to smile. He told me that football players don't smile. duh.


and once again, thanks to Uncle Josh, we ended up with this. LOVED IT!
but man oh man, what am I going to do next year?!?! :)

Lila turns 3...or 21 according to her :)

Miss Lila had her big birthday bash last weekend. My kids had been looking forward to it forever because it was at one of their favorite places, Playwerx.

Of course, Charlie was looking forward to it because a party always means cute party clothes! :) (But WHY does she look soooo old in this picture??!)
Ben was NOT amused with our antics....but he would make a cute girl! :)



I don't have any pictures of the boys at the party because this is all I saw...


The birthday girl!
Teaching Ben the finer things in life....

These were the party favors for the boys. I hate those swords. :) Luke and Drew, of course, loved them. But now, they are on top of my refrigerator....where they just might stay. forever. :)

the birthday girl making her wish. I found out later from erin that she was wishing for food. HAHA! Seriously LOVE this girl. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

My only picture of Jett.

Um, Ben....I think you are supposed to wait till your first birthday to partake in the cake :)

Debra and Matt (Debra looks a little in shock of all the Owens chaos...but she survived!) :)

Charlotte...already 6 months

How has 6 months passed SO fast? Literally, the fastest of our lives.

Here is our girl....

yep, we can't imagine our life without her



I had no idea what I was missing.

Drew tells me, daily, that she is "just so cute!" I couldn't agree more :))
