Katie's birthday

One of Carly's best friends and cousin turned 9.  Ashley asked me to tag along to help drive a watch the girls.  They had dinner, cake, and presents, and then we drove up to Weber State to Ice Skate.

 Carly, Katie, and Addison are the cutest cousins/best friends that I have ever seen.

 Katie's aunt was so sweet to skate with the girls

Me and Ashley

Beginning of March

We had some cousins come for a play date

The girls love having their little cousins over as much as Isaac does.

Hailey made an awesome bean vase

Isaac worked hard on shoveling the melting snow

Isaac loves Jenga.  We play this several times a week.

We went to see Peter Rabbit at the mall and had to wait a few minutes for it to start

Isaac was actually asleep, Carly wanted to pretend

Grandpa got new chicks!

Isaac made bread at preschool, but did not want a picture with it.

 Luke need to get a physical at the Dr., so we stopped for breakfast

We went to Jed and Shannon's house one afternoon, and Shannon and I were twins!  We almost are like real twins, we obviously have the same taste.

Isaac turns 4!

 Happy Birthday to our little buddy!  This boy is growing up before our eyes.  He's so ready to be grown up like his siblings.  He is a joy in our family, and everyone dotes on him.

February Fun

Grandma and Grandpa gave the kids mini murphys for Valentines day.

Ready to put them in the oven.

Carly's Valentine's box

Abigail and I got to go skiing for a field trip.  She did great for her first time!

With the beginners on the little hill.

Luke and Tayler heading in to their Valentines dance

The kids were going all little crazy one night, so I made them have a read a thon.

Luke and Abigail were fighting, so I sent them out to shovel.  Abigail had the back patio, and Luke the front driveway.  When Ab was done with the patio, she went to help Luke finish the driveway.

I thought it was so sweet after they had just been arguing.

We met up with our Harrisville friends for some sledding.

The young men had to go pick up flags one night, so I followed behind Ben and Luke to make it easier. 

Breakfast buddies

my sweet snow angels

we love watching Abigail play volleyball, it's the highlight of our weekends.

Carly likes to do my hair while we're watching.

so proud of their puzzle

These two are the best buddies!

Abigail did her state report, and did an amazing job!  She put it all together herself and way ahead of the due date.  She was excited to learn that Dr. Pepper is from Texas, so she could serve it at the presentation.
