Cousin Fun at the Zoo!

These three had not seen each other in over a year - and BOY were they excited!  They had a great time at Aunt Carrie's playing and doing sparklers, and then we spent the next day at the zoo.  It was HOT, but everyone had a great time.

Another Party!

We ended our birthday celebrations in Omaha with the Hallquist side!  The Hensley's (minus Zach - we missed you!!) flew into Omaha and we all met at Carrie & Josh's.  We celebrated with presents and ice cream cake on Saturday night.  Blake got a sweet 49ers Mickey Mouse, movies, and clothes.  I think he liked the ice cream the most!  It was great that the Hensley's finally got to meet Blake in person!!

The Big Day!

The Big Day - Blake is 1!  We celebrated with dinner out with Uncle Kyle and Traci, then cake and presents are our place.  I think he had fun digging into his turtle cake.  Boy was he dirty!!

Hard to imagine this picture was taken only a year ago!

Blake is One!!!

My baby Blake is turning one!!!  

Our first celebration was with the Newman side out at Papa Knute's pond.  There was food, fishing, presents and best of all - Mickey Mouse cupcakes.

Yankees vs Royals

Andrew and his dad are both big NY Yankees fans, so when they came to Kansas City, we took a road trip!  It was a great day for a game and we had a lot of fun.

Tyler got to hit and run the bases in the new kids area at the Royals stadium.

Summer Fun!

Just a few pictures of some of our summer fun with the boys!

Blake found the cupboards and drawers this summer.

The Perkins gave Blake a water table - perfect for deck play!

Tyler did a little league baseball clinic and of course enjoyed batting the most.

Blake had to sit and watch.

Looks like watching was not that fun!
