Watts

Oh Watts... every time we see you we just can't help but hug you and love you.  You still have your puppy face but we know that you are getting older.  When will we see you again???

Happy Birthday again Noah!!!

Again, a celebration is not a celebration without the Min kids.  Today we went to John's Incredible Pizza to have lunch and play.  The kids enjoyed glow and the dark mini-golf, bowling, bumper cars, and rides.  I think it's safe to say that we celebrated Noah's 9th birthday!  I wonder what we will do next year???

Happy Thanksgiving (and birthday again)

We had a delicious Thanksgiving lunch with the family.  We played Rummy Q again and Grandpa and Micah came out victorious again.  Afterwards, we had another opportunity to celebrate Noah's birthday.  What did he wish for???

Happy Birthday Noah (again)

Today is Noah's actual birthday... he wanted to see the Peanuts movie and then we went out to his favorite restaurant, California Pizza Kitchen.  Uncle Zach met us for dinner with lego in hand and Noah enjoyed a slice of key lemon pie.  Wonder what he wished for???

Brothers

There are moments when I catch the boys being really sweet to each other... we were walking in Target of all places, and I caught them arm in arm watching an extreme sports video.  This makes my heart so full.  I wonder what they will be like when they get older???

Happy Birthday Harabujee

Happy birthday to my dad!  I wonder how old he is???

Happy Birthday Noah

Happy 9th Birthday to Noah!  In true Jedi fashion we had a Force Awakens slumber party complete with a Jedi scavenger hunt, Who is Kylo Ren? game, and of course, iPad time.  We set up the tent inside the house and the boys loved sleeping in there.  This was a huge parenting moment for Jawsh and I... to have a slumber party with this many kids... but we made it!  How we will celebrate his birthday next year???

Dinner with Dre

I had such a nice time catching up with my college roommate, Andrea.  She was in town to catch a flight and we were able to meet up over sushi and her favorite, Dunkin Donuts!  It was great to catch up.  Wonder when we will see eachother again???

Rainbow Award

Micah received a Rainbow Award!  We are very proud of him.  The Rainbow Award says: 

This Rainbow Award is Presented to Micah Smith for being a kind and caring friend.

Jawsh and I have always wondered about how Micah does socially but what we realized is that we really don't need to worry.  Micah is working hard to be a great student in his class and he really likes being there with his brother (which can be hard to be in the same class).  When the boys receive special recognition, we like to celebrate by taking them out to dinner... I wonder where Micah will choose to eat tonight???

Lego Day

Tonight we were invited to go to Uncle Zach's office where the kids participated in a Lego 2 Monster Engine Theme Focus Group.  The kids invited a few friends (the focus group needed girls) from their co-op so it was nice reunion. They spent the evening eating pizza, playing lego ,and drawing.  The highlight of the night was when they asked the kids to imagine they were a 5 year old girl and to draw a scene... Micah drew a big box and labeled it "liquor store."  Who brought this kid???

Republique

The boys went to the doctors this morning with Jawsh so you know anytime they are together these guys will end up at a bakery or coffee shop.  So, Jawsh took them to Republique.  The building was built in 1928 by Charlie Chaplin and later became a restaurant in 1989 then a bakery in 2012.  The boys got to eat yummy baked goods while learning a little about Charlie Chaplin.  So, now when they want to eat here they mentioned "Charlie Chaplin."  Will I get invited next time???
