Kids!

Just some random pics of the kids--enjoy!

Caden and I had a date at his preschool for Mommy and Me night--his favorite part--eating snack with mom and watching the Jungle Book!

This face says it all right now--a little TUDE going on at this time with Miss B---she makes me laugh, but man can this girl scream! Cute outfit is from a school friend of mine!

Loves taking a bath!


A few fun fall pictures from 2011 that I thought I had already posted, but I guess not--love the colors!



You never know what this girl will find in her closet... :)

Swimming lessons winter 2012

Caden has been itching to do something this winter--he is soo excited for t-ball/coachpitch to start this summer, but needed a little something to keep him busy til then. He had the choice of basketball or swimming lessons again and he and his friend Ali picked swimming lessons. We did 2 nights a week for 6 weeks and they both loved every second of it. He is starting to swim by himself and grow even more confident! I am so proud of him--we celebrated the last day with icecream at DQ! He and Ali are both ready to do another set of lessons, but we told them we all needed a break and will take them again this summer--between Caden's swimming, church meetings, and other activities in the evenings, we did not have much time at home. So a little break til summer will be just about right!

One very happy boy!

Swimming--without help--for a bit anyways!

Caden and friend Ali--they go to the same preschool and will be in kindergarten at SES next year--wow times are changing at our house!

Snow Dec. 2011

I just keep waiting and waiting for us to get more snow and so far nothing much since Dec. So I guess it is time to post these SNOW pictures and it might be our only chance to play in the snow this winter...time will tell! I did get a snow day out of the deal and we did have a semi white Christmas! Both kids love snow--especially Caden--so here is our fun in the snow!


Lots of shoveling to do when you have a single driveway and another double driveway in back!

Snow angel time!

Let's make a snowman!

Snow is tons of fun, but it has also been awesome to be outside for recess and to play for a lot of the winter--we will see what March and April have in store for us--it has been known to snow then as well... :)
