"Bring your own wheels!"

Well Evan is all about race cars and anything with wheels really. Well I had some ideas for birthday parties but nothing was working out as I wanted. I mentioned this to Julie and Natalie and they brainstormed a great idea. A "bring your own wheels party" . I reserved a spot at a local park... it was a PERFECT location. We had the kids bring bikes, bigs wheels etc and they LOVED it. Everything revoled around race cars. We had crafts that were race car related and even a tire relay.

Here are some shots of the fun:

I know it seems impossible...but it tasted better then it looked...
just AWESOME!!!

A very happy boy

Tire relay
More tire relay!


I need to add this party would have never worked and been this successful without my wonderful air force family... Nick, Natalie, Julie Russell... I cannot thank you all enough for working so hard... and helping us!! Oh... and did you notice the INCREDIBLE shirts that Julie made. I am soooo bummed that I did not get a picture of all of us in our shirts... we really were all working too hard! :)





A family shot at the party.. our shirts that Ms. Julie made all said Evan's pit crew on the front and the number 4 and Hall's racing on the back. Except Evan's which was special and said his name.

The one way to tell the party was successful...one tuckered little boy!


Thanks for stoppin in!

I wil TRY to be better about updating...

Much love!

Tammi and the boys!

Our little bit turned 4!

We have been going going going.. and I have not taken any time to post have I. I still have a bunch of vacation pictures to catch on, most of which ended up on Tim's computer which is part of my problem....

Anyway, in the meantime.. our little bit turned 4! How did that happen??? On his actually birthday he ended up with 2 ice cream Sundaes ...one at Red Robin (with singing) and one at Ritters... more singing....


The Red Robin Serenade

Ice cream!

The "worms and dirt" his fav!

Since Evan's birthday is so close to that of our nation we had the party a few weeks later... it was a bit of torture...but I think we all agree it was worth the wait...


The party....next post...

Cousins part one...


The boys had such a blast hangin out with "baby Anna" . She is not a baby anymore and it is amazing to us how close in age the kiddos have all become. They just played so well together and they have been talking about her constantly.





( ok this should have been rotated but you get the idea)






Three snug as bugs! :)
More soon.. bear with me!
Thanks for stopping in!
Much Love,
Tammi and the boys!

New Ride!




Well our little guy just turned 4.... I know! How did that happen??? Wasn't he just born?? Anyway he is four now and he wanted a new bike...so that is what he got. His birthday party is not for a whole week ...so he is trying to hang in there and be patient. Since his Mom has AWESOME friends I think it will be worth the wait for sure! Anyway enjoy the pics of him trying out his new wheels.

More posts after the weekend. I PROMISE! I will shoot for Sunday night. Love to all!!
