Scott

The BUSY BUSY man. He can't hold still, I'm telling you. If he's not at work he's at a sport and if he's not at a sport he's cleaning the garage. Scott's famous last words: "Let's have a garage-cleaning party." Hilarious, I love it!!!! He is definitely finding that he's getting older though. The poor guy has pulled a muscle in his back two months in a row and locked his keys in his truck. Gotta love him though!

Baby powder anyone? aka "Tickle" to Luke


The other day I layed him down for a nap. Or so I thought. It was quiet for a little while, then I heard a bit of noise, then quiet again. So, I decided I better go check on him. As I opened the door I found baby powder dumped all over him, his carpet and his toys. Look at that mischievious face!
