Avery's Kindergarten Graduation

Okay, first of all...am I really old enough to have a FIRST GRADER?!?!?  Seriously, how does time go by so fast!  Jason and I are so proud of our little kindergarten graduate.  Avery has done an awesome job in school this year and it has been amazing watching her grow and learn so much.  She had a blast this past year and LOVED her teacher Mrs. Lyons and her assistant Mrs. Janie.  They were so wonderful with the kids!!  I asked Avery if she was excited to go to first grade and she told me no.  When I asked her why she said someone told her the Kindergarten is the only fun grade.  I sure hope she changes her mind when school starts this fall!  If not, it could be a long 12 years!!

Avery and her best friend Eli.  Mrs. Lyons sat these two beside each other at the first of the year and they have been inseparable since.  Avery tells us that Eli is her boyfriend!  :)  All year long Avery would bring home notes and pictures that Eli drew for her...I think she gave him a few too!

What a cute dress Avery has on. But did they not get gowns to wear. All of Easton's class got a cap and gown. Time does fly by and she'll change her mind about 1st grade. Easton had a blast in it too!

Cold Days of February

Even though it's cold outside, we still try to have as much fun as we can!  This particular week in February ended with a ton of fun at Great Wolf Lodge.  Jason and I decided that instead of buying the kids more "things" for Christmas, we would buy them experiences.  We hadn't been to Great Wolf since Lakelyn was one.  Avery and Oaks had been talking about going back, and were always telling Lakelyn how much fun it was.  We made a cute little note and wrapped it in a box to give them Christmas morning.  Needless to say, when they opened it, they were super excited.  Might of been the best response ever to a Christmas gift!  Beautiful snowflakes! Isn't God's beauty AMAZING!  My little Elsa watching Frozen on this snowy day.  This costume has been worn more than any other in this house!  Family challenge of who can do a handstand push up.  I lost, but I will get them next time!  lol!  Morning s...

1|52 Looking ahead, with 2017 just a reflection. My hope for 2018 is to simplify my life. Spend more one on one time with each kiddo, take more walks in the woods, sit and talk more, laugh and enjoy each other to the fullest. Oaks and I took a walk to the river today, just the two of us. It was seriously cold, but it was sweet to have some time with him. Cheers to the new year!

February Fun

At one time, February was my least favorite month.  Now I can honestly say it is one of my favorites.  Basketball is winding down, softball is only once a week and baseball, and soccer have yet to start.  Jason isn't crazy busy and we seem to have more time at home together.  These are the moments I cherish.  Again, wrestling is always a favorite activity!  Daddy got the new basketball goal put up and the kids stayed out way past dark to shoot hoops.  These two were glued to a movie.  Lakelyn was so excited to get a bag of M&M's to put in her "M&M Trophy" as she calls it.  Oakley has been wearing these house shoes every night.  Lakelyn was walking her dog! lol! Hanging out in "mine and my sisters" bedroom at Papa and Granny's.  Mom, Uncle Mike, and Oaks are looking at old pictures.  Avery, Lakelyn and Aunt Kat are playing barbies.  This bedroom will forever hold a special ...
