March..hike at Back Bay

We decided to take a hike in Back Bay one pretty weekend in March. We didn't know that because it had been raining so much that it made the snakes move up to high ground to get out of the water. As we are hiking on the trails there were snakes everywhere. By the time we noticed them it was too late to turn back..which was exciting to Chris and Elijah but TERRIFYING to me and Isabella. As we walked on the boardwalk path there were snakes to the left and right perched on reeds and branches warming in the sun.

 

 

 

 

February Elijah's Birthday!!!

This year Elijah turned 10! He wanted to learn to snowboard so Chris hooked him up with a new Morrow board, bindings, boots, and gloves. Since part of his gift was a snowboarding trip, we decided to do his party low key...bowling and birthday cake. :)

 

 

 

 

January "snow" ball fight

"When you are putting together a piece of furniture in one room..do not leave kids unattended with the packing contents in another room, or this will happen."

 

 

 

 

Their 20 minutes of fun cost me and Chris hours and hours of cleaning. Ten years from now we will still be finding little remnants of this "snow" ball fight!

Blog update..What we've been up to for the past 5 months..haha

The semester is finally over so I am trying to catch up on everything that I have been neglecting these past few months. Next on my list is this blog. I didn't realize that I hadn't posted since Isabella's birthday..oops. Needless to say so far it has been a really busy year.

New Year's Baby is 4!!

Isabella turned four on December 31st. I decided instead of having my house overrun by kids we could just have the party somewhere else..somewhere that no one would be at 3pm on New Years Eve. The MacArthur Center play area. Who would have thought so many kids would be there! Isabella didn't seem to mind though. She was surrounded by her best friends and family. She said on the way home right before she fell asleep, "That was the best party ever". <3

Isabella and Isabella "best friends forever"

More Tinkerbell :o)

That last candle gave her such a hard time!

Christmas #4 Anderson's

For some reason I have no other pictures from the Anderson's except this one of Buddy and the one below of someone playing the Wii. There are also a couple of the lamp and someones foot. Which means this photography must be from one of my goofy kids. I am guessing it belongs to one in particular..So, I borrowed the last two pictures from Linda's blog :)

Christmas #3 The Evan's

Jacob's new drum set...I feel like Santa might regret this one...

Is that Chris smiling in a picture? There is always a first time for everything.. :)

More Tinkerbell..............
