judd's birthday

My mom came up this last week and we got to do some fun things together...like manicures and take the boys to see baby animals and things like that. But an AWSOME thing she did for me, is she bought me all the stuff I would need for canning! And she bought some apples and we canned apple pie filling that we made from scratch!!! It was so fun! and what a process, but in the end, these beautiful Jars made it all worth it!!! It will be SO benificial b/c we have TWO apple trees that grow delicious apples, and we have rasberry bushes, and cherry trees and plum tree's too!! So I will be making jelly and canning apples all summer and fall!!!! I can't wait!

THese are my boys! They are outside any second of the day that it's not snowing, or raining. We had ONE day of 65 the rest have been high 40's, but with the wind, well, you just don't want to go outside. On one of the nicer days, Jackson said, "can you get my wagon?" So Judd pulled the wagon out and Jackson loved pulling Porter around the yard!

This is Judd's little birthday party we had. My mom was here for this too, so she made us dinner, that was nice! And we got cupcakes from the cocoa bean which are HEAVENLY!!!

We are going to have another party, I think when Judd's mom is in town, and his brother was out of town too, so more pics to come later!

And this is Judd in his scout uniform! He has the 11 year old scouts and I thought it would be funny to put this picture on here, even if he thinks it's not funny =O)
