March 2012
Micah turned 5!!!!! You can see more from his 5 year session here.
...And he gave us the biggest scare of our lives. A very large fir tree fell on him, pinning him to our driveway as Corey and the kids were out playing in the snow. I thank God that Corey was home, and was eventually able to pry Micah out. Miraculously, he walked away without even a scratch:
Here's the view of it across the road that leads to our driveway:
And here's the view of our driveway:
Dad came with his chainsaw, and was the neighborhood hero, cutting a pathway for cars to get out!
Slipping and sliding all the way...
Kaboom:
After recovering from our big scare, we geared up for Micah's B-Day Party. Dad got to be a hero again! Well, actually, a villain... I had all the guys in the family (Dad, Corey, and Levi) dress up as villains for Micah's super hero party. All the little super hero's had a roll of toilet paper for a weapon, and had to capture the villains and "tie" them to chairs. It was awesome:
(I dedicated a whole post to the decorations here, if you like that sort of thing!)
Did I mention this game was AWESOME? Sooooo awesome! Ha ha haaaaaa:
LOVE this one of my nephew, Linc, with his giant marshmallow pop:
He recovered from the shock of it quite nicely:
As for Micah, he was beyond thrilled with his new arsenal of shields, swords, and shooters:
Our Idaho family arrived for a visit that same day, and we were off and running for the next week...
We took a day trip to Newport:
And we spent an afternoon on the U of O Campus:
We wrapped up March with our first round of swim lessons:
The kids were THRILLED when Grandma and Grandpa came to watch a session:
...so there we have March. ;0)
