More Projects

Brad put in drain line last weekend, and as with all our projects it was a family affair. The kids have a blast getting dirty and "helping" with all our projects. Owen had fun filling up Dad's trench and Claire had fun playing with the baby gardner snake Daddy found. She is afraid of NOTHING! The wood the kids are sitting on is for our next project, pouring more concrete.

Birthday Party Time

We just had a quite little Wednesday night dinner party for Owen with Aunt Kenzie, Hunter, Auntie Molly, Sean, Parker, Tracey Girl, Kyle, and of course us. We ate an Owen inspired dinner, chicken nuggets, pasta, salad and bread. And for Birhtday dessert....and Elmo cake!

Opening gifts....spoiled once again!

And a gift for Sissy too.

Time for cake and ice cream. Owen insisted on having Elmo's nose and eating his cake with a fork. It was his special day so the nose and a fork he got!

Playing with his toys after dinner. I think this was Owen's favorite part. So many people to play with and brand new toys...a little boys heaven.

Winding down after a super fun birthday party. Thanks to everyone!

Making Brother's Birtday Cake

Claire and I made Owen an Elmo birthday cake. I got this idea from my friend Ryean-Marie, she made cupcakes and they were sooo cute. Here is my interpretation.

Don't be Jealous

Owen James, my little angel did this. He found the sidewalk chalk that I had hidden behind this chest and "drew yous a picture mama". This is the first time I have ever had to walk in a room and find something like this. I guess I shouldn't complain, he's three! Luckily it was chalk not marker or something.

Owen James - Three Years Old

When we wake up in the morning it will be our little buddy's 3rd birthday. He is such a blessing, a true gift from God! How is it that he is three already? I love that he is getting older and becoming his own little person, but i miss the baby things. Yesterday he asked me a question and I answered "okay baby". He quickly said to me "mama I not a baby"! Happy Birthday to you OWEN JAMES, our little big boy. We hope your third year is filled with laughter, learning and lots of love.

Sprague Family Camp Out 2010

Hanging out at camp. Thanks Auntie Molly for the ring pops! Dinner time. Taco feed, YUM!

Around the campfire. What fun telling stories, laughing, and of course Forest Gump impressions.Time to turn in. The kids love sleeping in the tent. Owen was ready for bed after we set the tent up at 4pm. He kept asking me to put on his jammies. So cute!
Snuggling with Parker when we got up. It rained during the night at it was a cold cold morning. The kids didn't seem to mind at all.

Having a little snack before we have to head home. Thanks Auntie Katie for the GIANT marshmallows!

What a great family camp out at Odell Lake. Despite the cold and a little nightly drizzle we had a blast. Looking forward to next year.
