Cort and Reid are often up to some sort of antics. Here, they were banished outside because of the brass instruments that they truly cannot play. This is my uncle's old trumpet and Paul's old saxophone. Instruments of torture for this mom's ears!
The week after they turned 8, it was back to school. The only thing Cort requested for his birthday was blue hair. So we made that happen. He loved it, and couple of weeks later he was back to normal.
Cort and Reid are in 3rd grade this year. Pierce is in 5th. I can't believe we'll have a middle schooler next year!
...a handsome trio.
ReplyDeleteOh, Lisa, they are all three growing up so beautifully! I can hardly believe how time has gone by so quickly. Precious boys in every way. :)
ReplyDeletexoxo
it has been enjoyable to watch them grow, you are blessed
ReplyDeleteAwe happy birthday! They are the cutest and life is just wonderful in every detail. I hope they have an enriching school year!
ReplyDeleteI love the back to school picture! And cute blue hair, but not as pretty as his beautiful golden locks. I can tell he loves it, because he has the biggest smile. Gosh, I remember when they were so small! Our two younger ones run for the instruments the first thing upon arriving, and they come up to us and blow the horns as loud as possible. I think they are just looking for a reaction! Wonder why they persist in blowing and blowing when it sounds so bad! Their mom has no patience with it, but I have learned to kind of block it out. After all, they will be going back home shortly!
ReplyDeleteThey will be drafted into the band in middle school, they can play loud there.
ReplyDeleteYou have a trio of good looking boys. My son is now 20 years old and I actually miss these days!
ReplyDeleteTime flies, your boys grow so fast
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to the boys!
ReplyDeleteMy twins are turning 17 soon! They grow up so fast.
Happy twin birthdays! So cute!
ReplyDeleteIt's when middle school comes that they grow up so fast!!
ReplyDeleteLove the blue hair and happy birthday to 'em!
Oh this makes me laugh!!! I remember when my oldest daughter started playing her clarinet...relentlessly...day and night! Well, how do you get to Carnegie Hall ~ PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE! And fortunately, she did get to play her beloved clarinet at Carnegie Hall a couple few years ago! Get yourself a good set of earplugs! ALOHA!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday boys!! Love the blue hair....
ReplyDeleteAh, Lisa. Before you know it, they'll be off to college. Time just roars by when the kids are home. Then when they are gone, it's mighty quiet and you wonder why you built such a big house. :-(
ReplyDeleteTime flies faster every year somehow.
ReplyDeleteYou are the coolest mom.
ReplyDeleteWish i had blue hair.
It would be nifty if they grew into those instruments . . .
gotta rockin' horn section there.

Wow. They are really changing and their faces are no long "baby" faces. Where does the time go, right?
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your sweet boys! They are adorable!
ReplyDeleteThey sure are growing up! Reid and Pierce look the most alike. All 3 are great looking boys!
ReplyDeleteMy boys are in 4th and 6th grade. Mica has an Aug. birthday, so he's older for his grade.
oh how wonderful - happy birthday.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh...splinters in the wood and in the feet.
ReplyDeleteLook at those twin! They are wonderful 8-year-old and I sincerely wish them all the best for the nearest future..
