It seems like just yesterday that Jordan was having his 3rd birthday, how could it be his 5th birthday already?

We had a great science party for Jordan in our backyard in the valley heat.  Jordan is interested in science and space and he’s constantly teaching us facts about all sorts of things.

Some day he’ll forget about the kid who blew out his candles

Pretty soon he’ll have his driver’s license!

Other birthday celebrations:

Beach day:

New space shuttle!!

Happy birthday Jordan!

Every two years we look forward to seeing my side of the family in Oxnard on 4th of July.  We love to see all of the cousins who are spread all over the country and see how much all the kids have grown.

Eli was definitely off his game, coming down with a fever and hurting his toe.

But we still had a fun time…

The beach was perfect
