Happy Birthday Connor!!!




Today Connor turns 11! That's really hard for me to believe...it doesn't seem possible that he could be that old already. We had a family party for him last night and he is going to have his annual spend the night party at Tannehill once it warms up a little. He got money from almost everyone for his birthday and used it to buy himself a laptop and a new digital camera. He's definitely a techno-kid and loves his gadgets. :-) Happy Birthday! We love you Buddy!

Motorcycle Riding

Connor and David found a new jump in the field out behind our house and wanted Ella and me to come and watch them...I was really surprised to see how high they were jumping. For those of you that don't ride it may not seem very high...but just getting your wheels off the ground (which I try never to do) is really scary! They both jumped for a while and then David took Ella for a more laid back ride on his motorcycle. She was so worn out from playing and riding that she fell asleep on the couch with my helmet on and David's gloves...she looks like someone shot her! :-)

Braces for Connor

Before / After

Unfortunately for Connor his New Year's 'present' was braces. He was really dreading getting them, but has since decided they aren't too bad...that is after the first couple of days.
