Birthday Dinner

On Saturday night Tim invited Deb, Mike and mom and dad over for my birthday supper. He slow smoked/grilled a pork tenderloin on the grill and we had potatoes and peppers with it. It was Absolutely DELICIOUS!!!! Honey, you are the grill master!

The pork tenderloin - YUMMY!

The peppers and potatoes - Delicious

Thank you everyone for a super fun and delicious birthday dinner.

Fun with the new camera

Here are a couple of my favorites from the past 2 weeks. There are TONS to choose from as we have been snapping pictures of everything.

Beth stopped by to see the boys last week. They had a lot of fun goofing around with her. And yes, those are underwear on Asher's head, but don't worry, they are clean.

Grayson and Beth cuddling on the couch.

The boys found a catepillar in the sandbox and had to have a littel fun with it. They all got to hold it and then we put it in a jar to watch it grow.

Here is a close up.

The boys with Grandma and Grandpa. I love this picture!

Eston throwing the tennis ball up on the roof.

Asher riding his bike down the hill. What a fun day!

Posing in front of Tove's barn. That barn is the best place for cool pictures.

New Camera!!!!

We finally bought a new camera. After lots of research we decided to get the Nikon D5000. We ended up getting it at Ritz, which was awesome because it came with free photo lessons and lots of other extra goodies.

I haven't updated the blog in a couple of weeks because we have been testing out the new camera. I will update it now with some of the fun moments we have been able to catch with this new, FASTER camera.

Summer in March

Monday was gorgeous! It was 60 and sunny and we had a busy day outdoors. We started out by cleaning up the backyard, picking up sticks, getting out all the sandbox toys, riding bike and then it was time for a little fun. Asher and Grayson had a blast with their big trucks, it was a little messy but so much FUN! They are definately ALL BOY!

Rain boots are great, unless the water is spashed so much that it goes in through the top.

Oooh, there is water coming out of this whole (sump pump pipe). The water is so cold, but it is still fun to play in!

This is my water whole - no, it's mine!

Okay, we can share.

Wooo Hooo, running through water on the street is so much fun! Grayson

Yeah, look at me! Asher
Grayson cruising through the water.
Asher taking his turn.

Here they are when they were all done. You can't tell but they are litterally soaked from their armpits to their toes. Their socks were soaked, their butts were black, but it was a blast!

Asher's First Day of Preschool

Monday night was Asher's first day of Preschool. He was very excited and was actually out of the car before I even had my seatbelt off. That was, until we entered the school. He was very shy and quiet the entire night, but he did have fun. It will be interesting to see the difference between him and Grayson, who's first night will be next Monday.

Here is a picture of Asher with Mrs. Nancy.

Best Buddies

Sunday night Asher and Grayson were sitting on the couch, with their tractors, and told me to get the camera because they are best buddies. Here are the series of best buddy shots I took.

Asher and Grayson so sweet

cheesy smiles

Look at us daddy.

Screwing around

Grayson: What? Asher: Grayson bit my finger.

Get away from me!

AHHHH Mommy, help!
Don't worry, they are still buddies.

Our Mini Family Vacation

I have been wanting to take the boys swimming all winter but we haven't had the chance. This past Friday I decided it was time and did some looking around and actually found an AWESOME deal at a place in the Dells. So, Saturday morning we headed out and did not tell the boys what we were doing until we got there. It was fun, Eston didn't even know that I packed swimming trucks, he was very excited. Here area few photos from our SUPER FUN weekend.

We stayed at the Atlantis hotel. Nothing fancy but perfect for kids 10 and under.

We need something like this at home :) They are standing on the platform to get to the waterslide.

Daddy and Asher shooting some hoops.

Eston - he actually let me take pictures, unfortunately the other two were not quite as cooperative.

The Paulson Boys enjoying the "warm" water. Asher and Grayson were so proud that they could touch the bottom.

Yummy pool water!

Grayson thought he should help Asher out by turning up the water. They thought they were so funny.

Daddy and his boys! We all had so much fun!

Hanging out after a full day of swimming! I crochet this hat for Eston on the drive over. He wore it all weekend - except when he was in the water.

Grayson and Asher after laying on the bed for about 30 seconds.

My Boys! I love you guys - thanks for such a fun weekend!
