Neighborhood pals

We just love these boys. They love hanging out in the backyard and playing a version of cops and robbers where the 'jail' is under the hammock. Just had to get a picture of them all together.

Memorial Weekend

We had a great memorial weekend. On Sunday we went to Grandma and Grandpa Smiths where we cooked out, went to kiddie land, played in the sprinklers and had tropical snow. Can't beat it!! It was a really nice long weekend with the family. This had to be Jack favorite thing he did. Going on the train at kiddie land with Katlyn. He called it 'James' from Thomas the Tank engine.

Lizzie and Jack in the sprinklers.

Mom and Christy, relaxing and watching the kids.

Thomas and Peyton on the roller coaster.

Lizzie on the caboose.

Thomas and Peyton are still loving the train even though they are 7 and 8.

Katlyn is such a good cousin to Jack. She helped him out everytime.

This was the funniest part of kiddieland. Thomas got going so fast on the spinners that he turned green right in front of us. He was fine after he got off, but his facial expressions had us laughing so hard we were crying.

Spiderman and Batman at the Cook house

Watch out all you evil villans. Spiderman (aka Jack) and Batman (aka Mason) are here to protect our neighborhood.

Thomas' last soccer game of spring 09

Thomas did great in his last soccer game. It was a close game which ended in a tie 1-1. We were really proud of the way Thomas hustled.

Daddy's Socks Rock

Here is what happens when you leave Jack alone for 5 minutes: He has his dads tube socks on, over his sandals (which barely strapped) along with a pen drawing all over his belly.
That looks hot Jack.

The new sleepovers

Much to Thomas' dismay, Jack has been asking to have sleepovers in Thomas' room. He is getting a little scared at night and would like to sleep with his big brother. Here they are last night when I told them in a stern voice 'Get to SLEEP'. I guess they don't take me to seriously.

Later on that night, Thomas was sleeping and Jack was singing over his sleeping shoulder the ABC song. I didn't get a picture of that because I didn't want Jack to know I was listening, but I still don't know how Thomas slept through it. It was so funny.

A sunny thunderstorm???

The boys were very confused yesterday morning when it was sunny outside, but there was a thunderstorm going on. "How can that happen" Thomas asked.

Luckily there were no tornadoes in Kansas. Two hit in Missouri and caused quite a bit of damage.

Peytons First Communion

Peyton made his first communion this past Sunday. It was also Mothers Day so it was nice seeing Mom for that. It was a nice little get together. The family after mass.

The Boman family.

Sue turns 30

This lucky ole' man got to dance with Sue. Can you believe he was out picking up chicks??

The four of us after Kenny Chesney. Jim looks drunk. :)

Sue and I in our 'good seats'. We traded them in at a radio station. The boys claimed we flirted to get them, but it was 2 women who gave them to us. We told them we had bad seats and it was Sues 30th birthday so they took our tickets and gave us 15th row!!! Woo Hoo. To bad the boys didn't get so lucky. They were behind the stage. hehe.

No ice cream for breakfast???

I just had to get a picture. This was Jack pouting on the floor after I told him that he could not have ice cream for breakfast.
