Dressed up for the holiday

We got dressed up to go to services for Rosh Hashannah in Cincinnati. Carson was excited to wear his tie.

BlueJackets Fan Fest

The BlueJackets FanFest was awesome!!! Carson played in the bounce house, played street hockey with BlueJackets players (Carson played with Derek Brassard!!) and other kids, shot a puck at an OSU hockey goalie, and Daddy and Carson got to sit in the broadcast booth and pretend they were announcers. We also saw some of the other BlueJackets players, including RJ Umburger who is also in a picture above. Derek Brassard was so nice to take a picture with Carson after the street hockey game.

Soccer!

Here are some pictures from Carson's first soccer practice! He really loves it...and he gets to play with his friend Caleb.

SportsOhio

We went to a birthday party at SportsOhio yesterday for one of Carson's best friends--Jack, from pre-school. Carson had a blast with the bouncehouse, playing soccer, and tackling the worker/host. Carolyn had a great time playing soccer--kicking the ball and running around.

Touch a Truck/Tetherball

We went to Touch a Truck day at the park. After looking at all of the trucks, we spotted the tetherball court. Carson and Carolyn were very interested in playing and after Mommy showed them how to play, they made some new friends and had a blast playing.

Water balloons

In addition to playing with the sprinkler toys and pool, the kids enjoy throwing the water balloons.

Water play

Carson and Carolyn love playing with the sprinkler toys in the backyard. They just love getting wet!

Flowers

Carolyn loves the flowers in our front yard. She stops by them each day and touches them.

Recent pics

Here are a few recent pics...It's harder to get a pic of the two kids looking at the camera at the same time these days. :)

1st birthday!!

We enjoyed celebrating Carolyn's first birthday! Carson had been planning the princess party for months, so he was excited to finally pick out the princess cake and decorations. Carolyn was more interested in feeding cake to Carson than eating it herself. Thank you to everyone for coming over to celebrate with us. We are lucky to have such great family and friends.
