Boyscouts Fishing Derby

This summer the boyscouts met at a local pond to do some fishing. Both kids caught a couple of fish each.

An "unofficial" official soccer photo



While the REAL soccer photographer was snapping photos of the other kids, I grabbed a couple of shots of the kids and then snuck over his shoulder to snap some group shots too. Here's a couple of my amateur shots!

Mr. Cool


Sometimes kids just do the silliest things and you have to grab your camera and snap the picture! This one is of Devin who just happened to grab Kevin's hat and sunglasses and started pracing around like he was Mr. Cool.

What happened to my baby boy? He looks so grown in this picture, my little man!

Spring Soccer


Devin and Mikaela played Spring soccer this year and did really well. Mikaela is a forward and scored a goal in almost every game. Devin plays forward and defender. He does especially well at defender because he has the speed to get back to the ball fast and he's playing more aggressive. Devin has probably saved as many if not more goals than Mikaela has scored - what a team!

Boyscouts




Devin has been pretty active in Boyscouts this year and really likes it. Mikaela on the other hand can't stand Girlscouts (although she did sell over 250 boxes of those darn cookies this Spring). Here are some pictures of Devin at his den's Raingutter Regatta that took place in June. This is where the boys, with help from thier dads put together their boats. Then at the Regatta they set up 2 raingutters side by side and the boys blow on them to get them to sail.

Birthday Party - March 3, 2007




Yep - I'm quite a bit late but here are some pictures from Devin & Mikaela's 7th birthday party. It fell on their actual birthday this year and they decided (with a little prompting from mommy -because I like their packages) to have another roller skating party.
