Not Enough Time

I have been eager to get back to a deeper level in my blogging, but alas time is not on my side. For now I will post the pics I took of the kids at my mothers. I had a frame I needed to update that holds about 12 pictures and I got just enough good ones to fill it, yay! Not bad for a point and shoot cheapy, a cranky 5 year old, and a crawling one year old. Trinity my little poser was a piece of cake.

He's Here!

Welcome Benjamin James Minnich! With each new niece or nephew my heart grows exponentially.



can you feel the love??

Birthday Fun!

June is a big birthday month for us. Everyone's big day except trinity's is in June including two of my in-laws', one nieces' and two nephews'. It keeps us hopping for sure and this year is no different. Since we are still at my moms it was easy to get all the cousins over for a Kirby themed bash for Blake. I wanted to do a pinata but couldn't find a Kirby to purchase so (you really can find anything on the internet) I googled some instructions and on saturday I made one! go me! I'm not sure if I should admit though that it took me four hours with two of those hours completely devoted to it as Isaac was napping. Ah well it turned out great and the kids had a blast trying to break it. Turns out I make a pretty sturdy pinata because I ended up having to bust it open. Here are pics from the big event (and yes, pink is blake's favorite color AND the character of Kirby so hopefully he isn't too embarassed in future scrapbooks by all the pink on his fifth b-day). I can't believe his is FIVE. Happy Birthday Blake Rainier Diviney!

birthday lunch! sandwiches and strawberry straws for the milk
I had a pink cloth on the table but it too much so i ran down to the church building for a red one. better. just because his character theme is pink doesn't mean it has to look like a princess party! =)
hi-yah!
