Annie had a great spring concert! She did a wonderful job, and we loved watching her shine!

Snow!

It finally snowed! And Annie built an awesome snowman!

Circus Time!

Austin's Kindergarten Circus was a success! I love my little man so much, and am so proud of him for doing a great job in his first school program! Austin's class was the Circus Band, and they did a great job performing! Austin was SO cute, of course, and we had a great time watching him! Nana and Papa, Grammie, Gma Ellie, and Mommy and Daddy cheered him on from the crowd. When the band finished performing, Austin picked up his coat and took off his hat, and waited to exit the gym...even though the show was still going on. :) I guess he was ready!

Snow...Finally!

After getting past every date in the school calendar for built in snow days...we got snow! Gotta love where we live. :)

At least we got some snow pictures!

Outside Time

Three weekends in a row of beautiful weather! We went to Busiek and took a nature walk today. I love taking advantage of the warm days when we can!

Eleven!

Ellie turned ELEVEN!

It's hard to believe I have an ELEVEN year old, but it's true! We celebrated with a super fun friend and family party at the pool (indoor!) a few days after her birthday. Ellie had a wonderful day on her birthday too, with birthday/Valentine doughnuts at home, and a great day at school complete with a Valentine party where her class sang to her. I was thrilled to go hang out in her class during the party, and just loved seeing how big and grown-up these 5th graders are, and read all the sweet messages written to her on the "Birthday Board". After school we had went for ice cream with Grammie, the siblings, and our friends Richie and William. I believe that's where the sugar consumption reached an all time high. Whew! Finally, needing some real food, we picked up daddy and went to Joe's Crab Shack for dinner, feasting on lots of yummy crab legs, followed by home for some present time! We loved celebrating our girl who has come so far, and won so many battles, and who continues to work everyday. We love you Ellie!
