Uncle Luke (Eric's youngest brother) got his mission call to the Lima Peru South Mission. He leaves June 30th. It was so fun to watch him open up his mission call. After Luke, Blake will be the next "Elder Allen."
My sister Micki took the kids and I to McDonalds. The kids were in heaven.

Blake had me take a picture of him and we sent it into the Lego Jr. Magazine. Blake is anxiously awaiting the issue with his picture in it.
My kids have been really grouchy with each other lately. It is mostly Ashley bugging Blake and pushing his buttons and Blake coming to me crying. I used to do the same thing to my sister, so I guess this is payback. I told Blake to stick up for himself and he quickly went into his room and came out wearing this. He took me literally. :)
Okay, this is a really bad picture. We got a snail for Gilbert's bowl. "Gary" eats all the left over food on the bottom of the bowl. It is fabulous! I almost died laughing when Gilbert first saw Gary moving in his bowl. I have never seen Gilbert flare up before. He got so big and turned a slight reddish color. I wish I had taken a picture.
This is a picture of Blake's cute little friend Bryan. He absolutely loves Blake. His mom called me last Friday morning saying that Bryan was dying to play with Blake and instead of Blake going over there, Bryan really wanted to come play here. So he did. Whenever he sees Blake he gives him a huge hug!
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Blake was yelling "Happy St. Patrick's Day."
