Pure Awesomeness!

How did he get So BIG???

Cal is entertained with some plastic silverware while Kes opens presents.

Chad loves Keston's Optimus Prime from Rue Rue.

Lunch at Chuck E. Cheese- Keston didn't want to go anywhere else, he wasn't as sure about the actual Chuck E though.

What are the odds? A monster truck ride?

Cal is driving it, Keston was a little nervous to.

Gotta love Skee Ball.

Calon cheers when he puts it in the hole.

Kes and Bob!

My attempt at a Monster Jam cake.

He approved...of the El Toro Loco on it!

Berry Much Fun!

We went to Smith's Berry Barn to pick our own berries on Wednesday. It was such a great thing to do!

Calon loved roaming free.

Keston loved picking the berries.

The boys loved running around and trying to feed the chickens that were there.

Calon ate so many berries- he even started trying to pick them himself if we didn't hand them over fast enough.

Chad picked the most- by far! He is a berry good picker!

We got blackberries, raspberries and a few golden raspberries- about a pound and a half.

I made them into a crumble berry pie the next morning.It turned out so tasty!

Happy Birthday Chad!

Happy Birthday Dad!

Chad is 28 today!!

Tons of people come every week to shop, eat and hang out.
