Happy Mother's Day



Happy Mother's Day!  We had a great out in the "country" at Uma and Pop's new house.  Will and Sam ran around, played ball, and rode bikes, skooters, and golf carts...  Katie and Levy hung out and played a little.  :) 

 

Cheese!

Big Girl Katie!

A few pictures and a video of Katie - she's just getting way too big and acting too grown up.  Here is a video of her copying me calling the boys home from the playground across the street.  Yes, she is saying "Will" and "Sammy."

K hanging out.  Yep, she insisted on the boots!

Sam's Birthday Party!

Happy Birthday, Sam!  Sam had a bowling party.  He invited his class at school and had such a fun time.  

 The Party Crew!

Another part of the celebration was having cupcakes at lunch at school one day.  Katie enjoyed a blue cupcake with Sam at lunch.

 This is a happy, happy kid!

Jump Rope for Heart!!

Thanks to all the family and friends who donated to Jump Rope for Heart.  The boys raised almost $300 together and their school surpassed their goal and raised over $40,000.  It was a fun day at school.  Here are a few pics and videos of my little jumpers...

Happy 6th Birthday, Sam!

I can't believe my little Sammy is 6!  We had a small family get-together to celebrate with cupcakes.  His big party is next weekend with his friends at a bowling alley.   Here is the birthday boy!

 

 

Happy Easter!

We had a wonderful Easter!  The kids loved the egg hunt in Uma and Pops' backyard.  They are already looking forward to the egg hunt next year in the big backyard.  :)

Katie's Easter Egg Hunt



Katie's class at 'school' had an Easter Egg Hunt this week.  Once Katie got the hang of it - she really liked finding eggs.  It was a bit chilly so they moved the egg hunt to the sanctuary at church.  She loved it.



 

 I think there is candy in these eggs...

 Look what I found!
