Flying High!

The kids were given kites for Easter so we went to the field by our house yesterday and they had fun. The wind was a little strong at times and hard for Emma. She was done after the first try and wanted to go home. Jake could not figure out how to get his kite back in the air after it crashed. Ben had a great time and wanted to stay out there for ever.

Hullabaloo!

The kids were loaned a game for Lydia at Church and they had so much fun! Sorry my daughter is being an exhibitionist but the video is too cute not to post. I am not quite sure what happened to the shirt!

Easter Dinner!

On Sunday we enjoyed a family meal with pork loin, garlic mashed potatos (not as good as David's, but Emma still ate them), home made rolls, cooked carrots and believe it or not I did not make a desert. What was I thinking, actually I wanted to make a chocolate flourless cake but for some reason I did not have unsalted butter just sitting around. Everyone enjoyed just relaxing and having a nice peaceful day!

Easter Egg Coloring!

Jake was really getting into the coloring and thought we should have made a dozen eggs for each of them. I don't know who he thought was going to eat all of those eggs!

Easter Egg Coloring!

Ben also had fun! He likes to put his egg in every color and see what he comes up with. He also likes to put his fingers in there and try coloring those!

Coloring Eggs!

Emma enjoyed coloring her eggs and also wanted to keep coloring all night. You will notice I had used smocks to protect clothes and had to use those on the two that make the most messes.

Soccer Game!

Jake and Ben are playing soccer on the same team now. They are the Wolves! Today wad the 3rd game and not that we are keeping score or anything they won 8 to 5. Jake scored 2 goals and Ben had his first 3 goals, Michael scored 3 as well. Jake so far this season has had 6 goals and Ben has 3. It was a beautiful day today so we enjoyed being out of the house. I need to get a bigger memory card so I can take longer video with my camera, but I was able to capture one of Ben's goals and one of Jake's attempts. Watch how fast Ben runs, if you can see him. Ben is the youngest on the team, most of the kids are 7 and up and Ben is 5. He does pretty good with the Big Boys. Jake has gotten a lot better with passing the ball and his shooting. I will try to capture the Saturday games as much as I can.

Ben's Easter Egg Hunt

All of the kindergarten classes had an Easter Egg Hunt today at the park next to the school. They had a lot of fun and had to find 12 eggs that each had there name on them.

Emma and friends

I wanted to catch Emma playing with her bear and baby on the stairs. This is where she usually puts everyone and talks to them. Enjoy!

Emma singing!

I have been trying to get Emma singing without her knowing! She noticed but still performed for me!

Spring Break 08'

I am so sorry it has been a while! I am not living up to my New Years goals and updating my blog! The kids where on Spring Break last week and we were offered an oppurtunity to go to Port Aransas for the week. The kids had fun and we visited the Texas State Aquarium and played in the sand. The ocean was cold but that did not stop the boys from getting in. Emma enjoyed playing in the sand with her princesses.
The boys have started soccer and we were able to move Ben up to Jake's league and Jake Sr. is the coach! I promise next Saturday to take some video of the boys playing and share. They have practice on Tuesday's and game every Saturday. Jake has scored 4 goal in the 1st two games and Ben has come pretty close to scoring. Ben is so tiny out there with the bigger boys but he is pretty aggressive and keeps up! I hope everyone enjoys the video!
