daddy's big helper

the other day ethan helped nick get his quad ready to take a trip to the dunes. he was so proud of himself!

i'm ready to help you, daddy!

love the tongue sticking out!

notice the walkie-talkie, he would pick it up and say random things into it to nick!

all finished!

Go fly a kite...

today was the perfect weather for flying a kite...

eight years of sweetness...

happy birthday little miss mae! you are such a treasure and have brought so much joy to our lives and we are so happy to celebrate you turning eight today!

happy birthday!
daddy, mommy and ethan

it is so clear that he totally loves her! (before opening presents at home)

first time on the ice and she rocked it! (ice skating party with 6 friends!)

yes, her smile can light up a room!

family party at home
my brother and em have this "you owe me a dollar" thing going on and have for years... when I was pregnant with ethan they bet on what the baby would be (we didn't know), and she said a girl, mike said a boy. the wager was a dollar. her card from them said "we were going to give you $20 for your birthday, but you still owe me a dollar... here's $19!" she loved it!

of course, a hannah montana card :)
em with papa (my dad) and his gift. i take no credit for the socks or the fact that she is wearing heelys while on an electric scooter (i made her take the wheels out pronto)... at least she has a helmet on!
