Cancun





































Fell in love all over again in Cancun! It was pretty amazing. All inclusive and the service was great. Had a blast just laying on the beach, hanging out at the pool, going out to eat every night, going on a zipline and so much other fun stuff we did together. The resort was breath taking! I even woke up real early for a work out and watched the sunrise. so beautiful and just refreshing. so nice to hang out together just the 2 of us!

Minute to win it~ Family Game show night











So the new show Minute to win it is our new favorite around here. Kids love a good obstacle course or challenge. We watched this show for the fist time and of course Noah wanted to try all of the challenges, so did we! So we have been plaing Spoon frog, and Egg Roll. Spoon Frog is where you have to hit a spoon off another spoon and launch it into a cup. It's actually pretty fun and when you only have a minute to win it it makes it a little more of a challenge. Egg Roll is where you try to fan a couple eggs into a square using a pizza box but, we used a book instead and plastic eggs. This was a harder game but, alot of fun. oh, then we of course had to have a little more fun and poured water on the floor we told the kids the challenge was to try to spoon the water off the floor into a cup. When we saig go we pulled them by their ankle into the puddle of water. so funny their butts were soaked. Mommy and daddy got a good laugh...Hehehe

Our Anniversary




10 years~ Whoohoo!!!




Seems like yesterday...




Since we are going to Cancun in a couple weeks we had a pretty chill night out. Went to dinner and then home. Kids stayed the night with mom and dad so it was nice and quiet. We had soo much fun hanging together!

Silly Putty Hair


Yeah, I thought it would be a good baby sitter while I jumped in the shower and got ready for bible study. However, it wasn't! This is what I saw when I got out of the shower. What a mess....

Ella the Ballerina
















We actually were able to get in this spring for tap and ballet. Just signed her up yesterday and then went to get her cute little outfit and Yaya and I took her last night to get her very own ballet and tap shoes. She was so funny in the store. Definetly she prefers the tap shoes! So this morning was her first class with Miss Eva. She was super shy at first and had her hands in her mouth. She wouldn't let me out of her sight. She was so funny, wanting me close to her. But, as soon as they went in a circle and another little girl held her hand she was fine without me right there. Although always she had her eyes on me. She didn't do much of the ballet part other than when they leaped over miss Eva she did her part very well. I caught her on the bar on her tippies and it was by far the cutest. When it was time to tap she loved it! It was pretty noisy all the girls love to tap...They did a few routines and then it was the end of class and all the ballerinas got stamps on their hands. Seemed to be all of their favorite part. So neat to see her try something new. She called daddy right after and said "I did dancing" "I like it".

Noah's starts Baseball






Go Cardinals! #6








This season should be a lot of fun. It's coach pitch and after 3 pitches they can hit off the tee. The first practice was so cute. Noah did much better this year with not having to touch the ball and be involved in every play. He hit some slammers first time running bases he took a few shortcuts. He ran the right way just way short of each base and of course sliding home each time. He played pitcher alot and then first base. Tim is coaching again this year. He pitches to the kids mostly and does alot of dodging of bats and balls coming his way. Noah sure loves being on the field. Their first game I actually missed. i was pretty upset about having only a couple days notice. But, everyone came and cheered for him. Can't wait to see him grow durning this season. Go NOAH!!!

Ella in tap shoes


For a very long time Ella has showed intrest in dancing and of course always on her tippies. The community center where she has toddler classes also has ballet and tap for 2 1/2yo. She will be 2 1/2 next month already. So I asked her if she wants to do tap and ballet. She was exctited and after her bath wanted her jammies with the ballerinas on it. Then she kept pointing at the ballerinas on her jammies and saying she likes theblue and puuple bow-a-wee-nas. I looked in her closet and spotted my old tap and ballet shoe box. I took it down and the shoes almost fit her. Only 2 sizes too big. So I let her play with the tap shoews and she loved it. She had the biggest smile on her face and wanted everyone to watch her. It was sooo cute. So guess we will be taking her to ballet soon.
