The kids... and Oakley

So even though it was Aunt Kim's birthday today and we had a party over at mom's house with everybody there and we all played outside and then ate too much cake, I managed to not get a single picture from the party. Yeah, I'm lame.

Instead, here are some pictures from Friday night when Maddy and I stayed with the boys while Scott and Carolyn went to see a play. Leif and Sven had already gone to bed and the rest of us just kind of messed around.

Soren played on his computer...

While Carl read to us... (see yesterday's bonus post)

While Maddy bounced around on couch cushions...

And Oakley missed her daddy since he was in Michigan.

I have never seen a dog so happy as Oakley was today when everyone was over at her house. Gotta love family.
