Birthday cakes

Jen has made it a tradition to make a bear cake for each of the kids' first birthday.

Clark had a panda bear
Spencer's was a polar bear

Grant had a grizzly

Now Laurel got a koala

Springtime in Iowa- These pictures were taken on the same day.

Forget spring- it's SUMMER!

My boys declared it warm enough to play in the sprinklers.......but was it really? No way! It was only 50 degrees! Grant was smart enough not to get wet but Clark and Spencer went all out. They lasted about 10 minutes, then we retreated inside for some hot chocolate.
