Blake's Last Game

Well another baseball season has come to a close. We had such a great time on this team! This was Blake's first year w/ the older players and he did very well. Our Red Sox finished 1st this season! Hooray! Blake was very excited to add to his trophy collection last night. He had a great game...even hit a home run! Well on to all-stars now! More pictures to come soon :)

Rob's 21st Birthday

Well I guess I'm WAY behind on my posts...finally here are some pics from Rob's 21st birthday in April. We had a themed party at our place as you can tell from some of the pics....such a great time! Happy 21st Rob!!!

thankfully this mustache was only for the party :)

Mackenzie is Eleven!!!

I cannot believe that my baby is eleven years old! Time seriously is going by way too fast.

Last night we took Mackenzie to Joe's Crab Shack to celebrate her birthday. We had such a fun time! I think Joe's may become a Brown tradition - the staff made Mackenzie dress in a bee costume and she had to "buzz" around the restaurant while everyone sang Happy Birthday to her! She was a good sport - and wasn't too embarrassed!

Mackenzie has always been such a sweetheart and the past 11 years she has brought us much joy and laughter.

More Easter Pics

My sister-in-law Allison just sent me a few pictures she took on Easter & I had to include the pictures of the adults - which this word is used loosely with Andy & Jacob (see below)!

Easter

Since the weather was so nice outside we decided to enjoy our Easter lunch outside. Andy & Allison came over for lunch and Ryan stopped by later for a fun afternoon of games. We really had a great time. Unfortunately I don't have many pictures of the the kids where they are both smiling - so this is the best of the best :) The kids enjoyed an egg hunt in our new place & were given the movie of the year - High School Musical 3 - of course - in their Easter baskets along with a few other goodies. Hope everyone had a great Easter!

Oh the Joys of Raising a Son

Ok - well no one could say that Blake is a wallflower & doesn't like to play while he's at school. I finally decided that I should document the way Blake looks EVERY day when I pick him up from school. I swear he is the dirtiest child at the school! This day was a little more disgusting than the other days.......I pulled up & saw him playing kick ball - while eating a fun dip. Well evidently he finished off the "dip" part of the fun dip and decided that his finger would work just as well. So over and over again I saw him sticking his finger into the sugary powder & putting his finger in his mouth. I think I threw up in my mouth a little....take a look at these pictures.

notice the green finger from the fun dip

this picture doesn't really do his dirty ankles justice - we literally need to scrub

his legs to get the dirt off.

Moving on up....to the East Side.....

Well we finally moved - Hooray!!! We are so happy to be in our own place again. We found a great place that allows the kids to go to the same school and they already have friends that live on the same street as us. Here are some pics from moving day....I'll post pictures of the new house soon.

Mark almost killed himself w/ a bungie that snapped!

How many guys does it take to take apart a bunkbed?

Thank you all for helping us out!!!
