Camping @ Blue Lake

So this last weekend we took our first camping trip to Blue Lake. The kids did amazing on the hike down. We only stayed one night but it was fun with all the family there. Here's some pictures of out trip.

Abbie and William at camp having a great time.

Are there child labor laws in the mountains?
She pumped up 85% of the raft by herself
Abbie and Daddy were the first ones out on the raft.

Blue Lake sunrise.....yes most of us was up WAY to early.

4Th of July weekend fun

Josh was home for a long holiday weekend. He got the pool ready and the kids were ready to jump in and to start having fun. William decided to jump right in when he came out side. He was so excited he forgot his arm floaties. Luckily Josh was already in the pool to save him. The water was cold but they didn't seam to care.

Then monday night the kids and i sat outside and watched the fireworks. They had a great time and it took them a while to go back to bed after.

Finally getting Updated (William and Zulaka's birthday cakes)

So I know its been a while....ok a long while. Had a great christmas and then had William's birthday, which is also his cousins Zulaka's birthday too. William decided that this year he wanted a alien birthday cake and Zulaka loves frogs so I found a great froggie cupcake idea.

I didn't get to many pictures of the party because the lighting wasn't the best so here are the ones of there cake.

I will update more on what we have been up to in the Houdek house hold. We have been busy with the garage and now I have been working on the basement for the kids. I hope to keep up with the blog more often but no promises.

Happy 5th Birthday Abbie

Abbie had her 5th birthday this week. Had a party on her birthday with my family and then one with Josh's. She was so excited to turn 5. She told everyone that she would never be 4 ever again. Here's a few picture.opening her Zuzu pet from daddy

Build-A-Bear

So I took the kids to Build-A-Bear. My sister Caci had gotten Abbie a gift card there for her birthday. They both had a blast making there new stuffed animals.

2010 Pictures

Every year at this time I take the kids out a take their pictures. So here are some of my favorites.

William

It's been a while since my last update. I would like to say that I've been busy but I just have been slacking. Well as most of you know that William was diagnosed with seizures. They are that bad, all he does is fall or look like he's a little off balanced. He is on medication for it and they say that it should take care of it. They don't know how long he needs to be on it but they are thinking maybe a couple of years.

Our poor little boy has been such a big trooper with everything. So many doctors in a weeks time. I did get to take pictures of his EEG.

Nurse drawing on his head where all the wires will go.

He sat so still, they gave him a mirror so he could watch.


One of the tests he had to blow on a pinwheel

The last part of the test he had to go to sleep. I wasn't easy but he managed to, and then he wouldn't wake up when they were done.
