Four Jingle Bells

Hailey's school had an academic night where we could go see her work and go to cute little workshops. We went to a physics one where they got to build roller coasters on the computer. They learned how to draw pictures of the Eiffel Tower. Don't mind Spencer.=) They did a dance Hailey dressed up for rock star day The best way to keep Brooke occupied for 20 minutes. I don't think she ever sat still for this long! Taking after dad Our awesome and super creative friend, Mellisa had an Easter party for the kids. It was great! They had a fun time. Funny, none of my kids are actually in this picture! My dad is retired. Lucky bum!! So, he surprised Hailey one day with a ride to the park. I was trying to fix her bike tire and kinda destroyed it, but she was ok with taking her scooter. Brooke has definitely been our messiest child! We planted some broccoli and zucchini seeds. The kids love watering. Taught Spencer how to clean the bathroom. Hailey is reading like crazy!! She lov...

This is about two months overdue, but Blake's brother Ryan came to visit with his wife Monica and their daughter Addie. They are so great!! We are wishing they lived closer.=) Blake has a polishing shoe addiction that started in the military and I thought it was so cute that they were polishing together. The two redheads in the family! We went to see Blue Man Group and were so close we had to have this attractive ponchos so we didn't get dirty from their "interesting" stunts. It was so crazy and random and fun! We went to the shark reef where the kids got to see tons of different fish and pet a stingray. We went to Hash House a go go. We have always wanted to go there. It was on Man vs. Food. It was good. The plates were ginormous and the biscuits were to die for! Ryan just had to take a picture with this creepy guy on the strip. He had spray painted this suit. Totally weird! I have always thought gambling was so dumb. So when we one 95 cents I was totally insp...

Summer is coming and I am sad and happy. Sad because the heat is awful, totally awful!!! And happy because we won't have to rush Hailey off to school and get dressed for 3 months.....Sounds great! Hailey put these pj's on and said she looked like an angel because she was all white. Spencer didn't get it.=) Spencer's first time he took a picture. Not fuzzy or anything!! Hailey wanted to take a picture of us. Brooke totally had a nasty poopy diaper. Good times! This was supposed to come last.....the kids were having ice cream because they helped pull weeds. They had it all over their faces and Hailey had the great idea for me to put ice cream on my face too. Super fun! I am so glad to have kids to keep me fun and not so serious. Brooke's first ice cream cone that she actually enjoyed! Usually it is too cold for her. My 3 kiddie cats.
