Happy Easter

The boys had a great Easter over at Pops Tom's and Gramma's house this year. The eggs were all full of money. The older kids were very excited about the money. The younger kids, not so much, but they enjoyed the egg hunt. Beau had a major meltdown during dinner and had to spend a few minutes in time out. The melt down occurrences spiked a bit after his paci's were hidden that week. We told Beau we didn't know where they were. Both boys were very excited about visiting the Easter bunny but Beau sure didn't show it in the pictures. We went to my parents and Rosanna made an awesome bunny cake. The boys were super excited about it!

Ice Skating Winter Camp

Levi did Ice Skating Winter camp during his school break. He was pretty excited but started falling as soon as he started. He sobbed to his coach that he wanted to go home about an hour into it. They went outside and did street hockey for awhile. Then he put his ice skates back on and started skating on his own. The look of pride on his face when he showed me how well he was doing when I picked him up was so amazing. By the end of the week he was skating so well and was starting to pick up hockey pretty well.

Levi's School Christmas Performance

Levi's class sang Feliz Navidad and Mele Kalikimaka. Then the kids went and took a picture with Santa!

Award Time

Levi got his first school award for knowing all of his letter sounds. He puts so much effort into everything he does at school. We are so proud of him!

Pancake Breakfast with Santa

We went to see Santa at Woodcrest Ace Hardware for a pancake breakfast. The kids had a great time and got to spend time talking with Santa.

Picking out a Christmas Tree

We went and picked out an expensive Christmas tree at the lot by our house. The kids had fun helping decorate it. The beauty of it quickly dwindled as Beau took half the ornaments off and Triggers tail knocked off countless more. It has been really chilly this winter and with the heater on constantly it soon became a fire hazard full of sharp pine needles. Needless to say it was thrown out and left curb side the day after Christmas. Still not willing to do away with the tradition of going out and picking the perfect tree.

Halloween 2015

What a fun Halloween we had this year as members of the Avengers Superheroes. Levi was Iron Man and Beau was the Hulk. He had been talking about being the Hulk for weeks, he was so excited! Cousin Chase was a pilot. Uncle Travis was a football player and Aunt Rosanna was a cheer leader. Troy smoked some ribs and we had some family over before trick or treating. We took the kids around in the wagon and trick or treated until 8:30.
