Steen's First Birthday

We had a Thomas the Train themed party with family.






















I made the cake...




Steen demolished it!












Other activities included decorating train crackers or whatever creation desired.














We played musical chairs and stopped when the train whistle sounded.

Steen had a "grand station" time!

Playing for Thousands!


Michaela played her violin last weekend at the conference center for thousands of people! It was amazing! Of course she was playing with almost 3,000 other Suzuki students. She performed in 3 different numbers and had a great time!

Fall Foilage




School Jogathon


Michaela ran 6 laps in her school jogathon. Andrea joined in for most of the laps. Since Michaela doesn't own a pair of tennis shoes, she had to wear her soccer cleats!

I suspect Colonel Steen did it in the Kitchen With the Knife

Steen's new trick is climbing up onto EVERYTHING! He can get up onto the counter in 2 seconds flat...and this is what happens when it goes unnoticed! He found the butter and a cup of big sister's milk to play in.
