It is scary for me to believe, but somehow Oliver has been with us for three years already. He has accomplished so much and added more to our lives then we could have ever imagined.
We had a small party for him at a local pizza place and this year he definitely knew it was his birthday. We all had a lot of fun and thank everyone who came or sent their love from afar. Enjoy:
Here are some posts that really amazed me from not too long ago:

Our travels this winter break were not nearly what they have been previously (2007: 1, 2, 3). In fact, no flights at all and we only drove about three and a half hours - to Cabarete. We stayed there for three weeks and although we missed friends and family terribly having a special group come from California helped us to survive.
As i sit here more than a month after the vacation so many moments jump to my mind as being incredible, i just could never share them all here. One of my favorite moments of the entire time however was about fifteen seconds in duration (overhearing a conversation between Karli and Rick):
Rick: So do you body surf?
Karli: Well i just float around and laugh a lot.
Rick: Sounds like fun; and a good way to live life.
A great final Christmas in the Dominican Republic.

The original vision of this blog was that it would be a place for us to share our adventures, thoughts and general goings on with you. I have done the majority of the postings but few loyal readers of this blog could ever forget this post by Karli.
Well today is another historic day. With great pride I present you with....
So now the proud father will give you a little play-by-play. So i was on morning duty Saturday and with the monstress happily entertaining herself Ollie brought me his paints saying, "I want this." He started the work by combining blue and green in the middle of the page. I told him it was beautiful and that it looked like the ocean. He then brought me the brown paint telling me it was for sand. He added the sun then the pink fish y VOILA!
We are awaiting a call from la louvre.
On Sunday we went to the botanical gardens where our now famous artist was mobbed by adoring fans:
you aren't going to believe me but i really had nothing to do with this - you trying being the cute little blond boy 'round here!
