spring break

we had a busy couple of weeks...but lots of fun...haley came to stay with us for a week on her spring break. it was really frustrating to have different spring breaks than all of our cousins...but owell.
we headed to DFW after church on sunday...thankfully the weather was amazing...we hung out at a park for awhile with some of my family...and then spent a few days with andy's...
monday we did a brotherhood dinner...really nice to catch up with the group!! we have been praying for jaylie sawyer (who is battling pulmonary vein stenosis), so us girls painted our nails in rainbow colors to show support for our sweet friends. the boys attempted to climb a really tall tree....didn't work, but we were just grateful no one ended up in the hospital! :)
brotherhood kiddos : ian, luke, max ; tysen, logan, halle; gra, livi ; keaton, wyatt
kyle brought the kids over one day to play...we walked to 7-11 for slurpees and visited the trampoline park!!! SUPER. FUN.
we also made a visit to see grammy...took dinner and hung out some...and the boys had a game of poker going! 
our last day we went to 6Flags. there was hardly anyone there!! never waited more than 5-10 min...and several times were able to stay on rides and go again because there was no line! that made the whole day really nice and fun! karis and thomas joined us, and we loved that special time with them!

more visitors!

mom and karis came for a visit last week....i always love having family come in town! sam and adelia came and hung out with us too...

February wrap up

we had a lot of cold spells in february. we actually haven't used the hot tub much this winter...but this day was COLD...so the boys took advantage!
valentines date...we went to houston and had a date with the batlucks....a small little coffee shop...had a great time being away with my guy...and we both had new hair cuts...:)
ian got his first issue of the lego club magazine!
we got to keep the marshalls while dan and denise were out of town. kinda loud...but had a great time with all the boys!!
mommy and tysen date. he had been sick with tonsillitis so we went to the doctor and then got a shake for that sore throat! 
yep. this is already happening. middle school is just around the corner from us.

january wrap-up

same song...50th verse...i'm late in recording things. better late than never!! 
january passed in a blur...it's always great to have christmas break...then we just jump back into ministry and life so fast...basketball kicks off...and just normal life gets away from us! we did have some visitors, which we LOVE. ana and papaw came at the end of january, and were able to see logan and ian play one of their basketball games! 
tysen and buddy dean
tysen had one tooth loose...and the other was barely loose. while wrestling in their room...logan got a little rough, and tysen's face connected with the bedframe....lots of crying...lots of blood...and we knew what happened when we saw the tooth on the ground. as we got him cleaned up, we realized they were both gone! luckily we found the other one under a blanket! he talks so cute now!
