I may play with these a bit yet, but I just wanted you to see them.  Let me know which one you want for your enlarged photo.

Happy 4th Birthday, Carlee!

Well, I've been slacking just a little bit, huh?  Kind of gave up on the blog thing for a while, I guess.  I can't believe it's been since August that I've posted!

To see Carlee's birthday wishes on WAOW that aired on Monday, click here:

You may get asked to download a plug-in...go ahead, it is safe.  And don't forget to make it full screen (2nd button from the right at the bottom corner.)  :-)

Below are just "some" of the pics from the party.  I know, I'm a little crazy with pictures.  :-)

Carlee's steer birthday cake Aunt Shelly made.

Grandma Nadine's drawings set by the Oreo cookies.  (Needed black and white appetizers.)  

The only picture I took that shows the banner.  Our wall looks pretty bare without the bench sitting there.

Miss Hanna Banana

Look at that face that Miss Madi gave me.

Our cake without one leg.  When it came time to light the cake, we found out Grandpa Larry had stolen its leg.  So we replaced it with oreos for the time being.  lol

She was so shy!

Angie and Larry

mmmm mmmm good!

Terri & Nadine

All these presents for me?

hmmmm....what's in there?  I love how Hanna and Emma have to look too.  :-)

The night before her actual birthday.

Time for Carlee to come out of her room.

Her compact Hello Kitty brush.

Daddy stopped by The Country Store in Eagle River and picked this up for her.  He also had it FILLED with candy!

Carlee getting ready to leave for her birthday breakfast with Daddy.

Her newest addition...."Red" the other steer.  She loves it!
Oh oh....a new toy!  (It makes me think of Woody & Buzz in the movie "Toy Story"...ya know when Andy got a new toy for his birthday.)

Well, I probably won't be posting until Carter's birthday, so I hope you enjoyed the pictures and videos.  :-)


 

Happy Birthday to Carter!

Well, the summer is just about over.  That means it's already time to post Carter's birthday things!  I can't believe he's really 6 years old already!!  Holy cow!

First off, he was on WAOW last Thursday for his birthday.  Click the link below.

The following link is the annual slideshow: http://www.photodex.com/share/bevholte/amgmcmg4   It is about 9 minutes long, but SOOO cute!  I had to upgrade the Photodex plug-in again, so go ahead and do that if it asks you to.  It is safe.  It took awhile for mine to load....maybe it's because I have a slower internet speed.  I hope you can view it okay.


Below are some of Carter's birthday party pictures.

Playing "Spiderman Tag"

Short clip of the kids playing "Spiderweb Attack".  They loved using the silly string pretending they were making webs on each other.  :-)

Waiting for our train ride!

And of course, ice cream afterwards to end the party!
