Playing Catch

Even though it was cold and snowy four weeks ago, it was nice enough today to play outside. Since Corey was off work, he went outside and played catch with the kids. They are getting so much better at catching and throwing. Just think, with eight people in the family, that's almost enough for our own team!

First Grade Program

Eliza had her first grade program here. She was told to wear blue, so we threw together a blue outfit using a blue jean shirt of her brothers' and a belt. I thought she looked really cute, especially with the sunflower in her hair.

Happy Birthday Annmarie!

Annmarie is TWO YEARS OLD! She is so full of life, such a spunky little girl. Since we had the Pinewood Derby on Jonah's birthday, we celebrated both of their birthdays together on Annmarie's birthday.

Waiting for presents

I made PAW Patrol cakes, as that is what Jonah and Annmarie are really into right now.

And since 3-14 is Pi Day, I made a pie with the PAW Patrol symbol as well.

We just love our two little cuties!

Pinewood Derby

Caleb and Travis were fortunate to participate in two pinewood derbies this scouting year, one in Utah and one here.

Caleb wanted a pickup truck

Travis designed this himself

As usual, the cars looked great but weren't very fast.   The kids still had fun, even though they didn't win anything.

Jonah is FOUR!

Jonah is a big four year old.  He is such a sweet boy.  He loves to play with cars and two of his favorite things are Ninja Turtles and PAW Patrol.  We just love this little redhead!

Playing at Mohawk

My elementary school growing up was Mohawk Elementary.  Over spring break, a friend of mine from growing up here in Texas was home visiting her mom and we set up a time to meet at the old elementary school playground to have the kids play.  It was nostalgic.

...And more snow!

It snowed again. This time, it was coming down in large flakes, and looked so beautiful! I think we got more snow this winter in Dallas than we did in Utah before we moved (and I hear they still aren't getting anything!).
