Holidays

Christmas Pics by Meredith Brunette Nutty Sam 2005 Sam Ornament Well we did it.  We braved getting a tree and we decorated it with all of our ornaments and we sent out Christmas cards and we didn’t skip Christmas this year.  It sucked and it was good.  Charlie and Andy were so excited about the tree and […]

Halloween

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011

Sam and Joe We had a good Halloween.  The boys were very revved up and since the school carnival was on Friday and they went to a party on Saturday and then trick-or-treated on Monday, they had three full days of Halloween.  I was in charge of the Pie Eating contest for the school carnival […]

Settling in to the School Year

Tuesday, October 4th, 2011

We are settling in to the school year.  The boys are busy with soccer and basketball.  Andy is running for safety officer (one of the two positions you can run for as a third grader). Maybe his nickname of “The Mayor” will come true some day. He’s so excited and nervous about it and we worked on his speech last night […]

First Week of School

Thursday, September 8th, 2011

  Boys and me on the Front of a Russian Sub The boys had a good first week of school. Charlie didn’t cry at all.  Just said “Bye Mom, Bye Dad.” and sat down on his carpet square.  He was going over his addition in the car on the way to school the first day and I had to […]

“Six hours, feel the pain Charlie.”

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

The title of this post is Andrew’s answer to Charlie’s question of “How long does school last?”  I swear that kid can come up with some good one liners.   Charlie will be “feeling the pain” in two weeks and marking a new chapter for the whole family.  It will be the first time in eleven […]

Mr. Baby Dude is Five Today

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

 Happy Birthday Charlie Boy!  Big five today.  This picture is of him rock climbing in Colorado.  He was so persistant in getting to the top that I thought I’d post this picture.  He slipped down about twenty times but he wouldn’t give up and he got to the top and hit the button and everyone […]

Eleven

Wednesday, July 13th, 2011

5th Birthday 6th Brithday Happy Birthday Sammo!  You would be eleven today.  We would be starting a new chapter with middle school in the fall. I keep thinking of all those computer renderings of what people might look like as they age and even though it’s only a year, I wonder how you would have changed this […]

End of School/Beginning of Summer

Wednesday, June 15th, 2011

It’s been an emotional few weeks.  We did a lemonade stand for Touch a Truck (which was a fantastic event by the way). The Mikulaks work their tails off to set it up and it’s great for all the kids and raised a ton of money for cancer research).  Everyone helped out as you can see from the […]

Spring/Easter

Sunday, April 24th, 2011

Happy Easter to All.  As you can see from the photos, the boys have been busy.  They had a great Easter morning starting with the treasure hunt for their basket that the Easter Bunny leaves for them.  Charlie, who is usually our late sleeper, popped right up ready to go and rousted everyone out of […]
