Congratulations Dan!

Dan finished the Garmin Half Marathon in Olathe on April 20th in record time.

It was cold for late April, but a little bit of cold was worth it to cheer dad on at the finish.

We had Polly, Jeb and Brecken Vader over for dinner (they cooked!) so they could see our new house and the kiddos could play. 

Jammy Time!

Little do these two munchkins know that they will be the best of friends.

CROFT FAMILY PHOTO SHOOT-  2013

 Dan surprised me with a family photo shoot as my birthday present this year. The best present ever!

He knew I wanted some new updated photos of our family since we hadn't done anything formal since Burke was a newborn. I am so excited to have photos of all three of us and just our little man since he has such a personality at 2 years old. 

 Deep thoughts by Burke J Croft

 The boys were watching an airplane. Doesn't that sound about right?

 Such a little thinker. I wonder what he is thinking?

 One of my many favorites!

We were at the Overland Park Arboretum. 

A train track with a mountains, bridges and rivers captured his attention.

We hosted a few guests this Easter. 

We enjoyed Karyl and Grandma Jean and Richard at our breakfast table before Easter morning church.

Burke's latest school work.

Burke, all cleaned up for Easter service.

Beforehand, Burke woke up to an Easter bunny's trail of eggs down the stairs. Let the hunt (or game of clean up) begin.

Jack Pot!

Silly Burke talking my ears off

Easter Sunday turned out to be a beautiful warm spring day. We all enjoyed the sunshine and Burke put on some comfy shorts to hunt the eggs with his big cousins.

Daddy helping Burke remember to keep looking instead of wanting to open each egg as he found it.

Happy Grandmas!

What a great Easter1

A FEW BURKE QUOTES:

• Driving home from daycare one day, Burke is buckled in my back seat and says. "Burke ride a horsey. Momma, Burke wanna horsey." There wasn't a horse in sight. Who knows where that came from.
• Burke is particular about his clothes in the morning. Getting dressed one day I pull out a pair of jeans for him to wear. Burke says "Burke want to wear BLUE pants." I tell him, "Well, these are blue pants." Burke responds, "I want to wear DIFFERENT BLUE pants, mommy." Wow, who can argue with that?
• Burke asked me today, "Where my FAVORITE blankey?" Hmmm. I didn't know there was a favorite. I guess I will learn.
