Happy 3rd Birthday Ben!

Ben celebrated his 3rd birthday on March 6th! He blew out 3 candles on his french toast sticks at breakfast and then we celebrated later that day with a few friends at Chuck E Cheese's. At age 3 Ben is full of energy! He is quite the character and is always ready to make his brothers laugh! Balls (kick balls, soccer balls, basketballs, footballs) are his favorite toys to play with.

The Shrine Circus!

Nick, Sam and Ben attended their first circus! (and so did Flat Stanley!) What fun! They all loved the animals, silly clowns and cotton candy! Nick even got a chance to ride on a camel!

Children's Museum with Flat Stanley

We took a fun trip to the Children's Museum with Flat Stanley! We all enjoyed the newest exhibit The Adventures with Mr. Potato Head.

Monster Jam Truck Show!

The boys all enjoyed a fun time at the Monster Truck show! We brought along a visitor sent to us from our cousin Andrew in Illinois-Flat Stanley! Flat Stanley is a story about a boy who falls into a book and becomes flattened when the book is closed. Now that he has a new shape, Flat Stanley can travel all over the world easily in an envelope. We hosted Flat Stanley for about a week and took him to all kinds of fun places. Then we sent Stanley back to Andrew with pictures of his adventures with our family! Nick was sad to see his friend return to Illinois!

Carmel Firestation Tour

Earlier in March we took a tour of the Carmel Fire station. The highlight of the tour was the firehouse pole! The tour ended early when the firemen had to leave to attend to a call!

Lil' Kickers Soccer

Nick, Sam and Ben have all enjoyed indoor soccer this winter!

Justin and Loretta's Wedding!

The Horn boys attended their first wedding in February! Karen's cousins Justin and Loretta were married in a beautiful ceremony in Illinois. The favorite part of the night for the kids was when the dance floor opened! The boys taught Daddy some of their dance moves while Ben had fun dancing with the girls! Grama and Grampa Schraufnagel were awarded the longest married couple in attendance being married for 50+ years! What an inspiration for the newlyweds, and the old-weds too!

Day 4 Happy Birthday Sam!

Sam celebrated his 4th Birthday on our trip! It was our final of skiing and the best day of all! The snow was perfect and the sun was shining. A great day for enjoying spectacular views. That night we all went on a sleigh ride to a mountain lodge for super. Poor Sam fell asleep before we could sing happy birthday to him! We returned home again all in one piece with lots of happy memories of our ski vacation, and looking forward to next winter!
