Activity

The kids helped stuff envelopes for a fundraising campaign at the school.  They were some good free labor.  They had quite a system.

Anderson is really into making Houses of cards.  I remember Uncle Michael making these in Ft. Smith when we were little... Fun.

 Happy Birthday Cousin Jack.  Dave and Busters was so fun.  Boys had a ball and girls were a team, putting tickets together to get their prizes....

Boy, Lexi's OSD knee has been no fun.  Here she is at her last Track Race.  She sure loves the sport, hopefully she will be more conditioned by next year....  She has had to sit out most of the Soccer Season.  Bummer....

Mumsie got a new car.  Yes, that's her minivan.  We are car twinkies.  Great minds think alike.  Gma got her a new VW Bug, she is cruising around the beach in style this year!  So CUTE!

Here is Whitaker swinging in his containment vessel.

Ainsley Grace had her Girl Scout campout at Fossil Rim.  She loves Girl Scouts more than any other activity. 

Here is Lexi's wonderful Science Project.  She did a fantastic job and worked very hard.

Here is Roosevelt sleeping at night.  He sleeps on his back every single night.  It's hilarious.

Cuties.

At Mariano's with some friends.  The restaurant keeps this stand alone door up and Lexi's favorite thing to do is to walk through the door.  Bud and his buddy were miming. Ha.  Looks like a glass wall, huh??

At a party, these girls won a $25 gift card to Best Buy.  They agreed to split the prize 4 ways.... I took them on their shopping adventure, they mainly goofed off in the store and then settled sharpies, candy and Ferris Bueller for their winnings....

 The boys LOVED Best Buy.  This is where they stayed the entire time.

This book will make you NEVER EAT WHEAT AGAIN.  Ewww!!  It's crazy... Although his overall diet plan is not very healthy... I still prefer Dr. Fuhrman's healthy approach.  But, what an interesting read!  

Did you know this?  Eating 2 slices of whole wheat bread can increase blood sugar more than 2 tablespoons of pure sugar.  Dude.

Ainlsey Grace's soccer team will play for 1st or 2nd place next weekend.  Here is her cute team after the craziest game I have EVER seen.  They went into 2 overtimes and STILL were tied.  Finally, they went to penalty kicks.  Ainsley Grace was the 2nd to shoot and she made her goal.  All the girls did great.  They ended up winning!  Good Luck next weekend Cheetahs!

Stop

So the school takes Fall pictures and Spring pictures.  The Spring pictures are on a free dress day, I guess just to mix things up.  I never buy these pictures.  This year is a good example of why.  Lexi hops in the car and says, "Mom, do you want a picture of me on a necklace (dogtags) to wear around your neck?  NO?  What about a picture of me next to a stop sign?"  LOL, then she hands me her lovely pictures.  I mean even my 5th grader gets how these pictures are NOT the Way2Go.

We had choices.  I could have gotten the kids on a puzzle piece picture..... Gma and Mumsie, you want a puzzle pic?????

2 year old, Easter, Growing, Science, Cowboys and boys

Where have the last three weeks gone?  Whit turned 2 which is hard to believe this precious boy is already 24 months old.  He is the best thing EVER.  Here he is sleeping....  I lost his birthday pictures when I washed my phone in the washing machine. Here is the little sneak swinging.  He disappears, I realize it, go searching, and find that he has sneaked outside through the doggy door to play.  

 


Speaking of sweet babies, here is my new baby.  We are eating yummy smoothies every morning and the Kids make soup and all kinds of yummy things in this blener.  Vitamix Blender, I heart you.

Easter was wonderful.  We had a fun easter egg hunt on Saturday and kids had a great time.  That easter bunny at this party talked a little funny.... ;-)  Kids and Mom and Dad had a great time!  

On Easter Sunday we got the cuties all dressed and photographed.  I still can't get over how time is flying with them.  Another Easter.  We went to the annual Lewis Easter party and had a wonderful time.  Family pics turned out a little funky... Ha.  

Over the break we ate on the Patio at Fuel City.  Kids weren't too sure why people do this.... Good tacos.  Interesting atmosphere. Afterwards we FINALLY made it to the new Perot Musem.  It was AWESOME!

Whit cracks me up.  We ran up to have the car washed-as were are sitting waiting, he pulled 6 cars out of his pockets.  He is such a boy.

Saddle oxfords starting to look rough and hurt the feet...  Ugh, I do not want to buy a new pair before school is out!

Whit trying on swimcaps.

Anderson had Texas Roundup day at school.  These kids were soooo CUTE!  Here is his adorable 1st grade class.

Ainsley Grace signed us up to host her Science Project.  It was so much fun, these three scientests did a great job, did their work, then worked on playing.

At violin last night, our sweet friend walked in and realized Lexi has officially outgrown her preschool teacher.  Lexi said, "I can't believe I'm taller than the person who taught me to read!!!!"  Ha.  We love you sweet friend.  We can't wait for you to teach Whit to read, too!   

Speaking of violin, here is our personal violin collection.  They outgrow these things like ballet slippers.  I look at these and have sooo many memories.  Crazy.  Lexi just moved up a size and used her new violin last night.  

Finally, Lexi has been busy this spring with Track, Rec Soccer and DPL Soccer.  She has had fun, but unfortunately it has turned out to be a rough season.  After a soccer practice one night she came home in pain.  She got diagnosed with OSD in her right knee.  It's basically a combination of growing, overuse and tight hamstrings.  Next year will be better sweetie.  

 Happy April everyone.  Is it half over???!

Snoop Dogg

Yes, that's us at a Snoop Dogg concert, our friend got us VIP tickets....  It's hard being Snoop D-O-double-G.  But he was definitely the Shiznit.....

Pop Quiz

Can you pronounce, King Nebuchadnezzar, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, and psaltery.

Well we couldn't either but now Ainsley Grace can. She is reading the Old Testament reading in Mass.

Wish her luck!
