Talk Like Pirate Day

1 comments

Annemarie's birthday falls on National Talk Like a Pirate Day. So we geared up and headed to Krispy Kreme.
 Cutest baby pirate.
 The kids love dressing up almost as much as they love doughnuts!
 The boys made their own pirate hats this year.
 6 dozen free doughnuts! 
(For those who don't know, Krispy Kreme gives you a free doughnut just for talking like a pirate on this day, but if you dress like a pirate they give you a free dozen doughnuts! And don't worry, we as a family didn't even make it through half of those!)

Happy 1st Birthday Annemarie!

Annemarie turned one on September 19th. She had a beautiful new birthday dress!
 (and a cute headband I made that she wore for maybe 10 minutes!)
 Ken and I decided that she didn't really need much so we didn't get her any presents, but Grandma's and Aunt Carie were more than happy to spoil her!


 She just looks SO big!

 The birthday cake!
 She was the funniest of all my kids with her cake. She was so hesitant at first and didn't want to touch it. She kept leaning down and just licking it. 
 She gradually got braver and started using her hands.

 She finally got the hang of things and dug right in. 
 And loved it (and all the attention she was getting too!)


Happy Birthday Annemarie!! We love you.

Labor Day

Ken had the day off for Labor Day, so we took the kids to Shelley Lake to walk around and play. Ken found this awesome creepy tree. 
 Abraham pretending to be a bucket head zombie.

 I love this picture of a sweet girl and her daddy. 


Afternoon at the park

We hit the park one Saturday afternoon. Annemarie took her first selfie...
 As I looked through the pictures, I realized my kids need to learn how to close their mouths. These pictures were not staged.

Our youth had an auction night to raise money for camp. Look who I ran into. My kids weren't there and I was totally the cool mom when I showed them this picture!
