Can I just say how proud I am of this boy and how much I love him?  Cade is such an obedient hardworking kid.  Cade crossed over from Cub Scouts and received his career arrow. He is excited for his new adventures in Boys Scouts.  He finished up Webelos as a super achiever by recieving all 20 pins!  He was also able to do it all in only 8 months.  Last Fall was a little crazy for us (the move and all) so when Cade became a Webelo, we didn't have much time to work on it.  When we moved into this ward Cade was in a den with an amazing leader (Sister Mollat) who really helped the boys along the path.  Cade decided he wanted to get all 20 pins and set to it.  He finished by the end of July.  Cade also received his Arrow of Light the same night he crossed over.  His career arrow was filled all the way up with so many different colors from all the extras that he did.  He earned his Leave No Trace, World Conservation, and Religious Knot.  What a great example he has set for his brothers who are right behind him.  I hope he continues to work hard on his Eagle.  I know Cade achieves whatever he sets out to do!

Foster turns 2

Happy Birthday Foster! He is such a funny boy with a huge personality. He loves his brothers so much and is not afraid to be rough and tumble with them. He can often be found on top of them as he dog piles on them while they are unaware. He loves music and is always singing. Always!!

Can you believe it has been 2 years? We are having a hard time. I know we are way behind on posts but this time of year is INSANE at our house. It is back to school, then birthdays and sports! Of course Foster had to have a fall birthday as well. Well we will just say the start of the new school was a little rough but the boys have now adjusted and are doing well. They had a great time celebrating Foster's birthday so let me explain the above picture. It is hard to do anything for a 2 year old on a school night when everyone else has homework and bedtimes so we went to dinner at Mooya Burgers. We wanted the boys to feel a part of the birthday celebration so everyone got their own little cake and the boys had a cake eating contest. Only rule: No hands. They loved it. Davis realized next year that eating an adult sized hamburger right before might not be the best idea! He gladly bowed out and let Cade and Eaton battle it out at the end. I think Cade won but only because Easton helped make the cakes and before he knew what they were for insited on having the largest one. Maybe we can learn a lesson from this??

Davis trying to interested but he had a full belly. I think he just wanted to get his face dirty!

Cade is always up for a competition!

Easton doesn't like to lose!

I wonder where Foster gets it from?

Foster decided he needed in on the action too. He wants to be just like the big boys!! What a blessing the past two years have been. He is a lot of work but so much more joy!!
