Happy St. Patrick's Day


That crazy leprechaun was back again! He even left a footprint this time! They were thrilled!


For the record, I did tell them to eat only two pieces of candy since it was 7:00 a.m. But I am fairly certain that William had at least 6 or 7. He was hoarding the candy as I tried to take it away!


Circus Fun


We had a super fun time with Granny B at the circus!!! The kids loved every minute of it. It was a classic circus and reminded us all of our childhoods! 


Two $22 swords and two $1 store wands! Wish they were all young enough to get by with the pre-bought treats!!!











Poor William....after the intermission...he just could not take it anymore. He crawled right up and said "I need a rest!" Hilarious!


Basketball

We had such a fun time playing 5 year old basketball. John turned out to be the biggest shooter on the team.....making most of the baskets. When you are five, it pays to be the tallest! Virginia loved playing and was great at defense!


William thought he actually played on the team. Good thing there was one extra trophy for him!


Friends since birth! John, Virginia, and William loved seeing Brady, Colin, and Graham each week! 

Happy Valentine's Day and Snow!

Painting Treasures


So we have decided to paint our downstairs. With 3 kids. Overall it has been fine and the kids have offered to help. But the worst was when we had to move the couch and this is what was underneath it. I am a fairly tidy and clean person, this was shocking. We found a lot of old food, an old cup with milk (which was thrown away due to the actual contents inside), some toys, and my favorite was a lone pajama top.....


William's 1st Day of Preschool


William started preschool at St. Anthony's with John and Virginia! He was very excited about his new classroom. It has gone well so far with a few tears...but overall ok! 


He seems so old! :( 

The Best We Had....


Merry Christmas 2014!




We were first off to Salem to have Christmas with the McCrary Family! 
It was a fun filled weekend with a lot of toys! We visited with my extended family as well. 


Lego kits were the hit this year!



An actual picture where everyone is facing forward and smiling! Success!


And another with Granny B and her grandkids! A holiday miracle!


Then we were back home nad waiting for Santa! We did cookies, carrots, and milk. The kids were really excited this year! 


Santa brought William a motor jeep. Virginia got a remote control airplane and John got a 2 wheel scooter!




Luckily, we learned how to stop just in time. It is a shame that Santa thought this jeep would really be big enough for William but he truly is a massive child. 




Even Lion got a present! A new shirt!


We got the boys new basketball hoops and Virginia got a 2 wheel scooter from us. Successful Christmas all around!



They finally noticed their picture from Santa. 


Lastly, we were off to Maryland to have Christmas with the Koontz Family. It was great fun and everyone loved being together!




William is obsessed with Team Umizoomi. He has the Milli doll, Aunt Kelly bought the Bot doll, and Grandma had to order the Geo doll....when it arrived William was thrilled to have the gang all here!



We hope you all have a happy 2015!
