{this is why i love being a mom of two boys...}

Exhibit A:


Super hero capes!





Harry Potter aka Hunter



Superman aka Tanner



Aren't these the coolest capes?? Really.... they are the neatest thing that's hit our house since-- Capri Suns. The coolest part about them, is that they have reversible Super Hero capabilities. One day you feel like being Harry Potter, the next Batman. (ps: I am aware that Harry Potter is not really considered a super hero per say, but to my son he most definitely IS.) I will not claim one bit of credit for these magnificent capes. It pays to have crafty friends I tell ya. Thank you again Megan--you are the best! (It was her idea and her pattern that I used, so I thank her for teaching me how to make them.)


**Lots of pictures ahead....but they looked so darn cute I couldn't resist**

H is for Harry and for Hunter...... Ahh--so cute! This is a picture of him watching his favorite HP movie. {I am aware that he is sitting too close to the TV.... trying to work on that!}
And that my friends....is one of the many reasons why I love being a mom of two boys!

I just glad we finally figured out the issue with the sewing machine. Your boys are so cute, and we will be having you over for a water day soon.

How adorable Annie! I can't wait to have the 4 boy cousins play together soon! And I can already see Carter getting in on the action with the capes and your boys!

How fun! I am so excited to be a mom of two boys...being the only girl makes me the Queen...so I'm all about that!

CUTE CUTE CUTE capes...gotta say though girls wear them too...at least mine do. In fact Ella's having a super hero party for her birthday....

Were the capes hard to make?

Every time I read your blog I am more impressed with you as a mom. You actually made those capes- didn't just go to Walmart and buy them like most people would. And those boys are so darn cute I can't stand it.

I have been reading and catching up on your blog for a half hour. What the heck are you doing going to Utah? What does Steve want to do? What is going on crazy Morris'? I am so jealous you went to the Tulip Festival. We miss Iowa so much. Oh well. Thanks for living it up for us!

Boys are the best! I will for sure be making one of these for Cameron when he gets a little bigger.

Are they hard to make? Pretty sure I am the farthest thing from being a pro at the sewing machine!
