Sharing lunch together with cousins and family. Joel is on the left and Steve is on the right. Steve was baptized a few weeks ago as well.
Having lunch in the church as Saturday it rained and rained all day.
Jacqueline finally being able to eat after preparing much of the food for the meal. Thanks to all who helped!! Gotta love that dirt cake with worms.

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day Mom, we love you!!
Having some trampoline fun. Most the afternoon was beautiful weather to spend outside jumping around on the trampoline. Soccer was a favorite activity as well. Tigger also ran outside and had a fight with Oreo, quite entertaining. As the kids said, we never heard Tigger sound like that before. I'm trying to figure out how to get the video on this blog as Jonas managed to video tape the fight.
Here is Melissa showing off her haircutting talents. May as well do the haircut outside with this gorgeous weather. Although it did rain for a brief spell while Dad deep fried french fries and wieners for faspa. Delicious!
A perfect way to spend Mother's Day.

poker buddies

Mom, Celine and Felix are away, so Jonas took the opportunity to invite some buddies over for some poker. I believe they also watched some favorite movies. I guess it was too bright, so the sunglasses were needed.

Happy 13th Birthday Celine!
