Happy birthday Chase!

Chase's birthday was on Tuesday, June 20th. He turned 4 years old!!
We went to Chuck E. Cheese's and then had some cake and opened gifts. He LOVES Star Wars, and loves the little mini ships. He got a few of those, and a new scooter.

Chase loved playing the games at Chuck E. Cheese's. Althought I am not thrilled with this place, and it is soo expensive, he just loves playing all the little arcade games with his tokens. The other kids love it here too.




Chase wanted Courtney in the car with him....It was a little squeeze, but she was able to fit in.
My baby is getting so big!

Swimming anyone????

This picture was taken about a month ago....sorry for getting behind on the blog. Better late than never!!
After taking the cover off from the winter, it was pretty clean....But after a few weeks, this is how it looked. It hasn't been this bad before, but our pump sprung a leak and kept the pool from circulating correctly. Jared took the pump in for repair awhile ago at the end of winter, but when the weather started warming up, the algae started growing---QUICKLY! So in a matter of about a week or so, it got this green! Eeeew gross!! Our very own swamp!

Jared picked up the repaired pump from the pool shop, and with it working again, and a little TLC and some algecide and chlorine, it went from this GREEN, to a cloudy blue in a matter of minutes. Jared wanted to hurry and take this picture before it changed, and I thought he would have plenty of time, but its a good thing he did, or we would have missed it. By the next day, it was crystal clear again! Now we just need to heat it up....70 degree water is much to cold for me!

Hayley's birthday

Sorry these are so late, I figured that after a month and a half, I better get back on the ball and update our blog! These were from Hayley's birthday on April 28th. She had some friends over for a "late night" and some Baskin Robbin's ice cream cake. She loves the cookies and cream kind.

Chase loves it when friends come over....he always has to get in on all the action! Even helping Hayley open up her presents.
