-isms

Carter: "See you later, Mom. We're going to a meeting at St. Possible's."
---
Mason: "Oh, bummer!" (with hands turning upwards)
***This, I'm not kidding you, sounds like "Oh-Bahma!," which reads like "Obama!"
---
Erik: "I have to drive this fast to maintain my equilibrium."

ENGAGED!

Jonathan proposed and Kristen said YES!
We had the honor of helping set up the proposal site before the big moment...
Carter was in charge of the champagne. He was a big help. :)

Mason threw rocks.

There it is! Ready for the lovely lady.

"When Uncle Dude and Kristen get here we're going to yell 'Surprise!'"

"Sorry, Carter, we're not staying."

"WE'RE NOT STAYING?!"

Texting Uncle Dude to tell him it's all ready...

So, we couldn't help ourselves... we drove by while we knew the big moment was happening!!! If you look closely you'll see Jonathan standing, opening the champagne.


"Come on, guys. There's CAKE!"

SURPRISE KRISTEN!

Her mom (and sister) came from Wisconsin and Chicago to surprise her as well.

Finally! Cake, at last.

March Pics

Got nothin' but love for my boys.
SERIOUSLY.

Taken before Erik and I went to bed, while we were checking on Carter. Yes, his leg is dangling off the bed, hoovering above Pita (what Carter calls his Elmo).

I mean, C'MON! (Gob Bluth voice).

Look at those eyes. And guess who took this picture -- CARTER!


LOVE. MY. GUYS.


How to hunt Easter eggs, the Twist boy way: find an egg, open it, decide if the contents are desirable. If so, put it in your bucket. If not... keep it anyway.
