Spring Break!

Its the first day of spring break and we were up already fighting at 7! These two fight like crazy but then love eachother like crazy. Guess I have to get used to this!
We dont have big spring break plans but I cant tell you how glad I am that we get a week break from life! Homework, uniforms, packing lunch, carpool lines, baseball practice for 2.5 hours and just the regular routine! It was great sleeping til 7 and not having to pull Owen out of bed.

 I might have posted this picture...but Owen is ready for Baseball! Actually he doesn't like catching or playing in the field, he just wants to bat! He's got an awesome swing on him!
 Spiderman had his bike a thon last week. He rode 25 laps!

Popsicles after!
 On our way to baseball, he looks so big!
 Hannah had a field trip on Friday to the horse farm we like to visit. They all had a pretty good time! But by 11 they were all HANGRY!


 Owen got to participate too :)

 Starting on some backyard projects. We knew the backyard would be a huge undertaking when we bought the house, but we were just happy to have grass and not just a concrete jungle so we were excited. But now....man I wish we had one that didnt need any work!
We will head to California on Friday for Easter weekend with the Knapps, we are looking forward to it! I just need to figure out how to entertain these two for 4 days....or teach them how to play by themselves!

Catching up...again!

So how many of my posts are titled this?! The days sometimes creep by but then I look back and time has flown!

Just playing catch up since Hannah's birthday, the best way I know how...through pictures!

 We enjoyed basketball season and loved watching her do something new...but we are ready for baseball :) She did great, she played her little heart out, they won two games!

 Joe Cool!

 BEYOND proud of my sweet girl...she got another award at school. She was on the honor roll this time. SO proud of this girl. She may be my strong willed little girl but she is awesome at school. She works hard, she is a great friend and does everything she is supposed to.

 Owen started Tiny Tigers karate...I thought he would love it. I pretty much spent every session begging him to go out there. He's a cautious little mama's boy!

 We had a blast at Hannah's birthday party!
 Owen had just has much fun :)
 We went to the Home Depot workshop for kids in February. They made Valentine boxes and they turned out super cute. It was SUPER crowded but the kids had fun banging hammers and painting!


 Hannah and her best friend River at school at their Valentines party. My sweet girl!

 That night she got to go to school for Movie night. No parents! can you tell she was excited!

 I took the kids to a local farm to ride horses, Hannah LOVED it. That girl would ride horses ALL day every day if she could. She absolutely loves it. Owen just enjoyed brushing the mini horse :)





 Owen loved this rooster, it was hilarious watching him talk to the rooster.

 Basketball season came to an end, they were super cute!
 I am so thankful for how involved Jeremy is. He is the best. I dont give him enough credit but couldnt do it without him. And now he is taking on the head coach of Tball! Good luck!
 My parents flew in on Valentines day and it worked out perfect because Jeremy and I got free tickets to go see Adam Sandler and his buddies, something we never wouldve done. It was hilarious!
 We had awesome seats!

 We had a great week with my mom and dad. It always flies by but so grateful they came out. Being 1800 miles away is TOUGH but those visits every couple months are really what get us through! we've got spring break coming up, then my mom comes in again, baseball season has started (H is playing with 9 year olds!), then before we know it, it will be June and summer will be here! Then a LONG trip home and a week at the beach. I can already taste all my favorite Louisville restaurants and can SMELL the sunscreen and sand!
