The Baby Room in Progress

I had to get a picture of the daddy in action! His back was shot by the end of the day. I tried to blame it on age ;) but he says he has always had problems with his back.
This is the closet full of shoe's for our baby. Thanks to Bill, Patty & Jae. I will put them up until he can wear them but had to take a photo! There are quite a few Nike shoe's in there so I should say thank you to Aunt Barbara & Uncle Jake too!

Here is the closet with clothes! All washed and ready to go. Again, thank you to Bill, Patty & Jae! The color of the wall is some sort of tan and Eric painted the ceiling white.



We are not done yet. We think we are putting some type of molding at the top.




When we are done, the baby by far will have the best room and best furniture in the house! We do not even have a bedroom set and have done nothing to our bedroom walls since we moved in. LOL! That's ok though. :) Only the best for our little guy!


Oregon Father's Day

The Grunwald/Pollinger/Poirier families celebrated Father's Day yesterday, June 27th so we could all be together. Good times as always. The kids never let us down and always keep things moving for us! :) The women cooked and cleaned for the men since they did the same for us on Mother's Day.

Barb & Jake got dad this blanket called a Snuggie. He is always cold...I mean ALWAYS! If he had it his way the house would probably be kept at a toasty 80 degrees. So hopefully this will come in handy this summer when mother has the A/C on. :)

Eric got some yummy candy from Bill & Patty. The kids were hilarious. They sat there staring at him while he ate it. Eric was going to share but mommy said no. After seeing the cutest face ever, Eric was allowed to give Jae a small piece.


Uncle Jake and Jae playing a video game. Bill resting for a few. :)



Jae was pushing Hannah....then he said hmm...Hannah you push me. They took turns doing this for awhile. Very cute. However, it did not end cute. I recall tears from both parties and the toy having to be removed! LOL!
It was a wonderful Father's Day. I feel lucky to have such a great dad who has taught me and given me so much.

Lauren's 7th Birthday







June 13, 2009
We celebrated Lauren's 7th Birthday yesterday (along with Katie and Michael) in Discovery Bay. Just a small party with Grandmas and Grandpas but lots of fun! Thanks Jackie for a fabulous day!



Brent and Joe Finish Elementary School


Brent and Joe finished up their elementary school career with a completion ceremony on May 27th. I can't believe they will be middle schoolers come fall. It seems like only yesterday when they started kindergarten with Mrs. Leonard. Tim and I are so proud of them and all their accomplishments so far!!!

Jean Turns 80 (aka Grandma Jean, Nana, Mom)























Grandma Jean, Nana, Aunt Jean, Mom turned 80 today May 25. We had a small family get together at Donny and Denise's (yes it seems they have the party house).
If I could figure out how to label the pics I could tell you who everyone is. First one is us kids, to the right of that is great grandkids, grandkids, and then both greats and grandkids together. Make sense!
We are so blessed to have our Mom. I can't imagine raising seven kids. And now that we are parents ourselves we know the happiness, heartaches, and hardships she went through bringing us up. She taught us right from wrong, gave us direction, offered advice, but most of all she gave us love.
We love you MOM:)
Happy Birthday. We hope we are blessed with many more!!
