Isaac's Birthday Party

Isaac's Birthday Party at the ice rink turned out great...!!!  We had a great turn out, he got great presents, we all had a great time.  They skated, played the Kinects, ate cake, and just had fun.  Just after this picture the boys started chanting "Cut the Cake!  Cut the Cake!" because Isaac told them he didn't want to eat the cake because he liked it so much.

This is most, but not all, of the boys that came to Isaac's party.  Everyone he invited from his hockey team came, most of the kids from his school that he invited came.  I was really happy at the turn out. 

(Go Parker!)

One last picture with the cake before it was cut into pieces and washed down with ice cream and Cranberry Canada Dry. 

He was on Cloud 9.  After the party he and I took JoJo to dinner and JoJo got to sleep over.  What a fantastic day for Isaac.

Thank You Butch for taking care of us...!!!

Isaac's birthday cake...

It's no secret that Isaac is a HUGE Dragon Ball Z fan.  He love the trivia, the show, the books, the costumes, the action figures, the tee shirts, etc.  Anything with Dragon Ball Z.  I figured it was coming, "Isaac what do you want your birthday cake to be this year?" 

"Goku...  Super Saiyan 3... No Super Saiyan 5..." 

"Get a picture and I'll see what I can do."  I said.

So he found one.

And I went to work.

I think we did OK...  It was about 1:30am when I got it done.

  He said the hair was 3D and everything.  I stacked the scraps from cutting out the shapes it different sizes and shapes of wedges for the 3D hair look.  He is pretty excited...!!

Christmas Skating Show

This year the Learn to Skate program is doing Charlie Brown Christmas.  Both kids are going to be in the show.  Lexy will of course be doing a solo routine (it might be quite interpretative) and Isaac is the star of the story... Charlie Brown.

The show is Sunday December 11, 2011 (Yes, Isaac's birthday!!!) at 5pm at the South Charleston Memorial Ice Arena.  Please come see the show...!!! It is $4 per person.  Sorry for the cost, but it will be worth it.

Isaac's Birthday Party Invitation

Isaac's Birthday is this weekend, on the 11th.  We are having a Birthday Party on Friday at the Ice Rink.  

If you read this blog you are invited.  Should be fun for the boys...!!!

Christmas Show

Both kids have been taking piano lessons.  They LOVE it..!!  Last night was their first recital.  Both of them did GREAT.

At the end of Isaac's you can see Ms Maggie, she is their piano teacher.  She is holding her baby, Jude.

Lexy's Baptism

Lexy was Baptized while we were in Utah of Thanksgiving weekend.  She was baptized on Saturday November 26th.  It was super nice.  She had most all of her cousins, aunts, uncles, and all of her Grandparents there to support her.

Here are a few pictures from the day.  Lexy and Daddy just before.

 Lexy, her mom, Isaac and her Dad.

There are a bunch of cousins, look how much fun there are having..!!!

 Grandma and Grandpa Young.                              

Bishop Veach.  Lexy sure likes Bishop Veach.  He did a great job.

Thanks to everyone the make it a SUPER day for Lexy...!!!

A little French action

So a week or better ago I got some strange itch to french braid Lexy's hair.  We didn't have extra time, I just felt like doing it.  It was the first time ever...!!.. I sure like how it turned out.  I need to practice more to make it better and I also need to try different ways.  Overall I was pretty happy with how it turned out.

 Here is some more 241543903 action from Grandma's house with Lexy on the bottom, Sarah in the middle and Makell reaching over the top.

At first that kids were not sure what it was all about... But after they had done it the found it as funny as I do.  It was fun for everyone.

Commander Wolfe

Isaac and his buddies at school have been working on plans for star ships and having teams for a Star Wars type battle.  They are always looking for more information on how to build lazers, transportation, and so on.  It's fun to listen to him talk about who is a spy and who is loyal, who can be trusted and who they think is a spy for the other teams.  This week he has begun writing files on different people in the group.  He told me that he even made a file on me.

A few weeks ago he found this helmet at the store, used his own money and bought it.  We know that it is the Boba Fet helmet, but Isaac is officially Commander Wolffe, he even signs the files with that name. 

It's great to see the imagination of these boys to go into something non video game.

Blog On...

Wow..!!! The blog sure took a back seat to the Thanksgiving Holiday and all of the travel and other events.  Somehow I need to find a way to fit some work in there too.
