Week In Review 9/14/12

The boys helped out with chores…which they beg to do.  I wonder how old they’ll be before they realize they don’t like it.


We had Evan's 3rd 5th birthday party on Sunday.  You may read all about that here as well as check out pictures.  I posted about his 1st and 2nd 5th birthday parties here if you'd like to check it out.
