Blast from the Past...

Peter and I were looking through some pictures on our computer and found these. It makes me sad to think of how much they've grown!


Laurel Ann made a habit of climbing on the kitchen table!

Bradley's class enjoyed their day at the farm. They had just finished a pioneer unit and finished it up with this field trip. They also got to go on a hayride and watch a sheep herding demonstration with a sheep dog. All in all they had a good time.

Annual Blog Post

OK, so I haven't been the best at posting over the past year. I've decided that rather than spend time on Facebook, I'm going to chronicle our lives through our blog. This is guilt-free time spent on the computer! I'll try to keep it up-to-date and may also go back and add some past events in our lives. Just sit back and enjoy!

Laurel Ann's 4th Birthday Party

We had Laurel Ann's 4th birthday party in our front yard. We were planning on going to the park, but it had rained the day before and was pretty muddy. So, they played with bubbles, balls, sidewalk chalk and hit a pinata. Her buddies Chloe, Avery, Gracie, Sutton and Darby attended. Her cousins, Collin and Cade, also came, but they took off with Bradley and weren't seen for most of the party! All grandparents were present and accounted for with MeMe and Pops making it up from San Antonio! We ate hot dogs that Pete cooked on the grill and had cupcakes and ice cream for dessert. The parents had a good time visiting and watching the kiddos play. As they say, "A good time was had by all!"

The kids didn't go home muddy, just a little sticky!
