Gallon of gas to get there: $3.25- Lunch on the way: $19.00- Letterman's jacket with everything on it: $555.00- Smile on his face leaving: PRICELESS!!


Today Tyler ordered his Letterman's Jacket! He had money in the bank as well as 2 gift certificates and had more than enough to cover his jacket cost. (I was a little worried!) He was able to get all the patches he wanted and even after the $25 extra charge for having a last name over 12 letters, he was able to get an additional "coach's award" patch for receiving the award his freshman year in soccer! He was happy with the whole experience and I will be sure to post a picture when the jacket arrives! (in 4 weeks).

Star Wars or Easter Eggs?


At our house we don't choose between Star Wars and anything...we incorporate Star Wars into EVERYTHING. Even Easter! My boys know that they are going to have to dye Easter eggs just to make me happy! This year Tyler found this Star Wars egg coloring kit which helped to make the task easier to swallow! Coloring eggs is one of those things that they think they are too old to do, but they do it to make me happy!


Tyler is my Star Wars fan. Uncle Mark got him hooked on Star Wars way back before he could even walk! Thanks Mark!



Justin shows us the secret to his egg coloring technique...LOOKING GOOD!

Good times with our family! Tyler poses with Uncle Mark and Uncle Daniel.




Look at how great all these cousins look! (Top to bottom) Tyler, Evan, Justin, Noah, Cole, Ethan, Abby and Lila! They are waiting patiently for the Easter egg hunt to begin!
