Two happy boys


Last night we went to Children's Hospital to visit Ryan and he was recovering from his surgery for his scoliosis. (There is no better place than Children's for kids) Jordan was so excited to see is cousin (and best friend) that he could hardly stand it. We went to pick out a special toy (John Deere of course to take with us.) At the end of our visit they were watching the movie Cars and looked quite content to be together.

Basketball







For Christmas the kids got a hoop. Steve was able to put it together as the weather was finally cooperating a bit. They have a lot of fun out there and it is something that promotes physical activity. Anything is better than sitting around watching TV. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa B.

And the Winner is...







Both Caleb and Megan had their car races this year for AWANA'S. It was alot of sun to watch all of the kids get all excited about their cars and whose was the fastest. Caleb's car DINOCO was in 6th place over all in speed. He was really excited about that. Megan "truck" received the trophy for most fun car. It was really sweet to see how they reacted. Megan was very proud of herself and Caleb was happy for his sister. (He is such a good big brother and SO proud of him)

Play date







Today Ryan was able to come over for a play date while Allison had to take Jacob to the Dr. The boys had a lot of fun outside riding bikes. Megan also decided she wanted to ride her bike like a big girl. I was so proud of her she was able to pedal for about 15 feet and then decided she was done. Oh well it is more than she did all last summer. (she thought that she was to go to DQ for Ice cream, because last summer we took her there when she pedaled for the first time)

President's Day




At preschool this year there was a program that Jordan and Ryan were in. They were able to sing some Valentine songs and Patriotic songs as well. the were so cute winging their hearts out for us.

Making the race cars











For Awana's the kids get to make a race car that they get to race and see whose is the fastest cutest, most orginal, etc.. This year Steve and I decide to go up to my parents (since he has all of the tools and not wait till the weekend before) and make the cars. I am not sure as to who had more fun, the kids, daddy or grandpa. we still have to paint them and I will post a picture of them when they are done. But here is the making of them.

Is it time for baseball







The other day when the waether wwas warm I sent the kids outside to get some fresh air and they decided to play some base ball. I was able to get a few pictures of them with out being noticed
