Here are Lance and I as we are pulling out of St. Thomas/U.S. Virgin Islands.

This waterslide is on the cruise. I went down it a few times. It was fun. The thing I didn't realize is that all of the pools and the water for this slide are salt water. We think they just sucked in water from the ocean to fill the pools.

On the last night of the cruise the big show was put on by the guests. Throughout the week they auditioned for parts and then on the last night they got to perform for all of us. My friend, Lisa, was able to be Madonna and sang "Like A Virgin" live on stage. She had all of the male dancers from the dance team as her back up dancers. It was really cool.

Conner wanted an Incredible Hulk cake for his birthday. It may look familiar. I used the same mold that I used for Brayden's Superman cake. I realized that the black didn't show up very well next to the dark green so you can't see all of the muscle lines I put in. Conner told me it looked just fine. He's all that mattered anyway.

Conner with his birthday cake. He turned 5 this year. He will be starting Kindergarten in August.

Conner wanted to make his face green like The Hulk so he put frosting on his face.

Lance's brother was in town this Memorial Day weekend so we all got together for a bar-b-que and I was able to get some pictures of all the boys for Lance's mom. (She is on a mission in D.C.)

With Lance being a scout leader Conner gets to be a "scout" along with all of the boys. We had our pinewood derby races last night. Lance built Conner a car and Conner was able to race along with the scouts. He won Best Workmanship. You like the sidewards glance. He was too excited to stop for a picture so this was the best I could get.

Porter giving me his camara smile. Everytime I pulled the camera out he was all smiles.

Conner climbing on top of the slide. I tried telling him that the slide is to go down, but boys will be boys.

Brayden wanted Porter to be in the swing with him. I tried to get them both to look at me at the same time, but there was too much going on.

Our friend Mackabree with Porter. She loved pushing him in the swing.

Yet another one of Brayden falling asleep in the weirdest places. He woke up in the middle of the night last night wanted a glass of water. While he was drinking it I sat in the rocking chair to try and get Porter back to sleep and came back and found Brayden like this. I don't know how he does it.

Brayden hasn't lost his camera smile.

Another VERY CUTE messy-faced picture.

Just a cute picture of Porter. He went from not even having good balance one day to taking a few steps a few days later to full on walking a few days after that. Now he is all over the place.

Porter saw all of us enjoying the Easter candy and just had to have some for himself. He can reach up to the table now and if there is anything on the edge it comes off on to the floor.

Another one of Brayden's famous "falling asleep anywhere" poses.

Lance signed Conner and Brayden up to decorate a cake for Easter at a grocery store. They provided the cake, frosting, and some plastic decorations for $5 a cake. They had so much fun. It was fun seeing how different they wanted to decorate their own cake.

Conner had a little bit more frosting than cake.

The boys and I went to Lance's work the other day and Lance took Conner and Brayden for a ride in his loader. They loved it.

They even got to help him scoop up some rock.
