MONSTER JAM!!!!!!!

We went to Monster Jam again this year!   Last year was such a blast and it really got Evan started with his love of Monster Trucks.

Evan's favorite truck is still Grave Digger.  On our way to the Outer Banks last summer we stopped in at Grave Diggers Dungeon and met the owner/driver Dennis Anderson and got Autographs.  Evan was crazy excited...here's a link to that action too.

Jim has some sort of ear infection and couldn't go today, so Evan's Aunt Melissa went with us!!  We had a great time! Here are just a few of the pictures!!

Evan and his Aunt Melissa

Catching up with his buddy Jamie.

They were both pretty stoked about it!

Of course he doesn't want his picture taken with Mommy!

Cheering on the trucks!!

VERY HAPPY BOY!!!

Mom...stop taking pictures of me.

GRAVE DIGGERRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Parking Deck...waiting to get out!!!  Evan loved watching the Light Rail.

What a fun day!

Winter Cuteness

Evan is definitely going through his "CHEESING" for the camera stage.  He loves to act out what he's doing or thinking.  Making goofball faces is one of his favorite past times.

Just a quick Evan update and we'll move on to pictures.

Evan STILL loves the Backyardigans, doing really great at pre-school and making new friends, we gave up sippy cups, wears his big boy underwear to bed (although this was more of a mommy problem!!),  has a new love for mashed potatoes, sleeps without the safety rail on his bed, learned what it means to be embarrassed, 43.5 inches tall and built his first snowman (spoiler alert!).

On to some pictures!

Playing with Dad on the construction site!!

I can't tell you how much Evan loves this pile of dirt!

Union break.

I just loved the little folded hands.  So darn cute.

Dad was building a road for Evan!

Not sure who had more fun....mmmmm......

Taking a break with Daddy.  

Goofing off after playing outside for hours!!!

On President's Day we visited the Udvar Hazy Air & Space Museum 

Exhibit A of goofy camera behavior

Exhibit B

You get the idea.....


He was "pushing buttons like the Astronauts do"

Our little Astronaut!

Posing with Frosty!!!  

Insisted on giving Frosty gloves!

Placing the gloves on Frosty's hand.


Very Proud!!!  :)

Best Buddies

Evan has a lot of Best Buddies. We are very lucky to have so many good friends!

Evan met a new buddy at school this year.  It was all he would talk about!  Everyday, he would tell me what he and Wesley did. How they played and how GREAT Wesley is!  Yesterday on Valentine's Day I stayed at Evan's school for his Valentine's Party. Wesley's Mom who is also MY new friend Jeanette also attended!

My camera's battery was dying, so these aren't he greatest pictures...but the cuteness of these two guys shows through anyway! Evan loves his whole class and all the kids in the class played so nicely together.

The final few pictures are from when I took Evan and his buddy McKenzie to the park on a WINDY day yesterday! These two are hilarious together and love to play all the same games!  McKenzie is also our neighbor so we'll have to keep an eye on these two!!

Here are a few shots.

Wow!! Evan LOVES stuffed animals.  So he loves this bear at school. Wednesday it goes into hibernation!!

Holding up his handy work!! His "HAND HAT" That says "I love you THIS MUCH!"

Goofy kid.

Evan and one of his Best Buddies Wesley!

And the hi jinx ensued!!

No, this is not a duplicate.  Just another one in the series of goofy pictureS!

How do you spell trouble?? :) 

Outside playing with his friends from class!

Evan's original Buddy... McKenzie.  They love playing together!!
