Eric's bday!!!

My big boy turned 11 today! This year he asked me not to bring birthday treats into his class. That made me a little sad. I guess he's just growing up!
The rest of the birthday traditions stayed intact though: he let me tell him the story of the day he was born while sitting on my lap, we had dinner at his favorite restaurant and came home to open his gifts and have birthday cake.

He got a new CD player (we're so 1997), Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Billy Joel's Greatest Hits, Jukebox Favorites from the Fifties and a Slip and Slide.

I tried to take a picture of us together but I think he had had enough and sabotaged the whole thing. Here's what we got, me and my big baby!

Tour of Blue Fox Way

Tomorrow thousands of people will head to Lake Tahoe to watch stage one of the Tour of California bike race. Today Dan and I watched our little cyclists get into the spirit of it!

These are new bikes purchased in part with Christmas money from Grandma Mari. Thanks for the cash! The boys are loving the way they chose to spend it!

Open House 2011

Today was open house at school. The boys loved taking us around the classroom and showing off their work. It was nice to see what they've been busy with all year. This school year has flown by! Only 2 more weeks of left!!!
