Happy Easter!

We had a fantastic Easter celebrating with family!

Accident?

Last night, I washed a pair of my jeans and hung them to dry in the laundry room.
This morning, I walked in, picked them up and said, "Oh man, they are still wet!"
Julia says, "You had an accident, Mommy? It's okay. You are still a big girl. Keep practicing!"

Read and Run

 Ry hangs with his friends pre-race.

 He makes it! One mile. Yeehaa! =)
He tells me, "Mom, I think I need to go home and take a shower."

 I forget my little photographer friend (Julia) always views me from this low angle!

Proud finishers of 26 books + 26 miles. 

(They just ran the last mile together!)

Wall Climbing

Julia's climbing dreams came true this morning!

The Y started a new climbing class for her age group. She was super-excited, since the last time we went Ryan was able to climb and she wasn't.  I couldn't believe how brave she was!

Watch out world!

Preschool Worship Time

Julia's preschool class leads the worship time on stage...

Pretzel Making

Daddy and the munchkins busy pretzel making...

I promise they tasted better than they looked!

Ry-ism

 "Mom, sugar just gives me such a good appetite!" Ryan tells me as he eats his morning crepes filled with strawberries and powdered sugar.

Say What??!

Ryan: "Mom, I don't really know if I want to go to heaven. I mean, I kinda like it here."

Say What??!

How you NEVER want your Monday morning to begin...

Julia: Mommy, blankie just got all wet. I accidentally dropped it in the toilet kinda. But just a little bit. Or maybe lots wet."

Ry hearts the school nurse!

Our little guy LOVES the school nurse...He's visited her nearly everyday for the last few weeks.  After the note he brought home tonight, we are really going to have to put the kaboosh on this nonsense! 

Our New Pet...

...Ants!

No, we aren't too crazy..they have a "cage"!

We ordered our ants from a facility in Arizona. They will live 2-4 weeks and we are to feed them vegetables or fruit every 3 days.  They've been busy at work tunneling in their new home...and our newest pasttime is watching them work!

Julia Celebrates 4!

I'm a big girl now!

Ry and Mason have a blast posing.

The dads..Jeff, Matt and Josh.

Jake, Izzy and Julia stop moving just long enough for me to snap a photo.

Krista and Taran.

So, another failure in the photo department...my camera battery went dead, so most of the pics I did take were fuzzy.  For more, visit Krista's blog. 

Happy Birthday!

Happy 4 and 34!

Valentine's Day in Kindergarten
