The Summer of 2009

Wow...the summer flew by...a little chilly, attempts at vacations, and of course fun with family and friends. A brief note on the pictures, the tiny one is Alvin's cousin Kaitlyn, who we were able to see twice!!! And who can forget when Uncle Brett jumped in the pool with his clothes on to splash around with Alvin!

At his birthday party, Alvin confused his mom for Aunt Katie, and still loves to say her name! We also visited with Grandpa Leuneberg and Grandma Ainsle quite a bit, much to their delight.

And of course, Alvin was able to spend some "boy time" with his cousin Aaron!

Hanging Out with Grandpa

We joined the Addis family at Aunt Julie's house for Great Grandma Addis's birthday party and Grandpa took Alvin out to see the horses. As you can see, it was a pretty serious affair for Alvin (until he got tired and Grandpa had to take a tired boy back to the house).

All Dressed Up for School Pictures

Happy Easter!!!

Here are some photos of Alvin with his collection of Easter Eggs, playing with his new Nerf football (new requirement for indoor play) and reading with Grandpa (hard to tell who is more into the story).

Finally... I caught up on the pictures.

And at last... Here are some pictures from earlier today. Grandma Lauer came down to visit for the weekend and Alvin got to enjoy the nice weather outside.

Uncle Andy Came To Visit

Alvin got a chance to play ball with Uncle Andy when he came to town for a visit.

"I'm kind of a big deal"

Even More Christmas Photos

We also had the Lauer families over for Christmas Day so Alvin and Aaron could create an even bigger toy collection... Are you kidding me? Look at all those presents!

More Christmas Photos

Grandpa Leuneberg came over for Christmas morning to hang out and open presents.

3 Months of Updates

Well, get ready for some pictures... finally. I haven't updated the blog since November so I will try to add some photos from the past few months and for the sake of time my captions will be brief. I hope you are all doing well and it has been great to be an observer for two other family blogs lately. Can't wait to meet Kaitlyn and see the hard work that Andy and Kerry have put in on the new home.
