We were giving a freezer away, but it was WAY disgusting! Tom had the idea to take the boys to the car wash to wash the freezer! This really cracked me up!

Gabriel is 6 now. He is SO much fun. He loves to do anything that makes him giggle. His giggle is so cute that his brothers and sisters will do anything to make him laugh. He is 100% boy; all the way down to having pockets full of rocks, dirt, cars, and screws. He loves to collect little "treasures" that mom calls trash. He loves to play outside and is always wondering when the next meal is. The boy would live off of strawberries if I let him. He is such a happy, easy going boy.

"Fat" Jack
Ok, everyone let me know that I missed a family member on here. They wanted to know why Jack wasn't on our blog. Well, this picture explains Jack in a nut shell. We got Jack at the local animal shelter on Oct. 1 2008. The entire family fell in love w/him instantly. He is fat, lazy, loves to eat, & LOVES his family. He like to hang out with us, and of course loves the window! He tips my plants over getting out of the window. We had to create a little more space in the bay window just for him. We love our Jack!
