Joe's Birthday and family time

Aly knows the way to the the Cooks' hearts and that is through COOKIES...and she makes the best cookies.....Yummmmm! Thanks Aly...:)The boys kicked back on the couch while the girls go shopping. It was a real treat for me to get to spend time with my girls...:)

Hanging out at T and A's house. Ken happy to see Monica and all her GLOW....:

The cat is out of the bag. I'm spilling the beans... Marti is holding a thread with a needle on the end...She's using an old wives tale method to see if Monica is having a boy or girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Making sure Ken and Hunter are really boys and the needle says they are....:)

Serena giving her a helping hand..

Aly testing the needle on herself to see if the needle reveals she is a girl...

Now the needle positioned next to Monica's belly confirms it is a BOY!!!!! She'll be going for an ultra-sound soon to medically confirm...whether it's a boy or a girl...;0

Look at that grin!!! :)

Ken caught with his hand in the goodie tray.

Ken with his boys... Nothing like hearing the laughter of children, even if they are 25.

Happy Birthday Joe!!!
Serena made us a wonderful dinner and made birthday pies for Joe.. It was so much fun getting together with everyone on Joe's birthday.....:)

Year 51 will be filled with fun and family....:)

The guys hanging out at Joe and Serena's house.

I've decided to have a garden this year because we'll be home most of the summer. This is the results of the seeds I planted four days ago. Soon they'll be big enough to go outside. Pretty exciting..:)

Moxy loves going to Auntie Serena's because she can drag out every one of Barcley's toys...:)

Joe with Barcley...HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOE!!!!

Of course the boys have to play when they get together..:) I love hearing you laugh!!!!!
