Zoo Fun!

Some of the Kent Berg cousin's at the Zoo.

L-R Sammy(not a cousin), Bekah, Weston, Brieanna, Sydney, Ellie, in front Maddison, Ray, Mason, Annelisa holding Sophie.

We got to see the big cats walking around, and a leopard that had been trained to roll over. The kids thought to was pretty cool.
We even played at the Discovery park for a little while.

Here is Ellie hatching Brieanna, Bekah and Mason.

We finished our day with a ride on the Zoo Train. I think Mason and Ray thought this was the best part!

maile's culinary arts academy

Anneclaire was delighted to join her four older girl cousins at "Maile's Culinary Arts Academy," celebrating Maile's 6th birthday. It was such a fun party, everyone had a wonderful time decorating cake boxes, making their own pot pies, decorating their own cake after a cake walk, playing "guess the kitchen gadget" and "pin the pocket Maile's apron." As you can see from the photos, Ashley, Janice, & JuLee even made each party invitee their own darling apron (which they wore the entire party of course)! They also took home a collection of Maile and her friends' favorite recipes.

Happy birthday Maile! Hope it was divinely delicious!

Sydney, the Clown!

Sydney got to be Soda Pop the clown's assistant for the Story time Circus.

She did a really good job and helped the clown by holding her wand,

and saying "abracadabra!"

She really liked to dress up and she liked all the attention!

She was an awesome clown!

a bit of family blog buisness...

Hello Berg World,

i just noticed that we have gotten a couple strange comments on Sarah's Blessing post. Thanks to whoever deleted the inappropriate comment, and as a "contributer" you can do this. If you would like to be a contributer, the family blog shows up on your "dashboard," which is nice if you don't want to remember another password etc. Writing posts is so easy that way. Leave a comment or email me (your preferred email) if you'd like me to hook you up as a contributer.

Also, if we want, we can always go private with this blog (does anyone know the Santos gentleman who left the comment?). Once again, comment if you have feelings either way. This should be a fun site where we share as a family, and we want everyone to feel comfortable with who reads it, etc. The only drawback is that sometimes people don't realize they have been invited because the email address invited may be old or no longer in use...so we have to be better about passing along new email, etc. to everyone and updating our address books :).

One last thing, if you do have a blog that you'd like to share with the family, let me know or another contributer, and we can list you on this site. Sorry, just can't keep up with all these blogs on my own...so much easier when your told its out there or invited, etc.

Loves to all and happy blogging!

Sarah's Blessing

Sarah's Blessing went well today. A big thank you to all who were able to make it out. A bigger thank you to those who gave up their spouse for the weekend. We had a good time together.
Paul was very kind to play with Charlie.
He (Charlie) enjoyed monopolizing the attention of his aunts and uncles.


Saturday evening we took a walk around the OU campus to loosen everyone up from their plane trip here.

We all had a great time together. Thanks again to all of you who made it.
