Mother's Day

It's been a great weekend to celebrate. We kicked off the festivities yesterday with brunch out with Jon's folks. Today, the 4 of us went to church and then picked out a new tree (a blue spruce) for the backyard. The kids surprised me with a massage appointment this afternoon so I was able to enjoy a workout at the gym and then have a quiet hour at the spa - fabulous all the way around! I am so blessed to be a mom to these kids and a wife to their dad - God is good!

Spring Soccer is here!

Maddie kicked off her soccer career a few weeks ago with the Hatrix team. She's in a 4 and under program that is 5 weeks of clinic-style teaching. The kids are in a few different groups and they are learning a bunch of basic skills while playing fun games like "Mr. Fox" and "Sleepy Pirates" - you'll have to ask Maddie for the details of these!!! She has loved playing and definitely enjoys all the different drills and games. Brogan has come along each week and loves to run around the field kicking or throwing balls (soccer, baseball, etc). We think he's definitely got sports in his future, too!








Madeline's AWANA Awards Night


Madeline has participated in our church's AWANA program all year; she has gone just about every Tuesday night to learn Bible lessons, play games, sing songs, do crafts, and generally enjoy being a pre-schooler. We've worked on learning a verse each week and she was fabulous at committing those little nuggets to memory! Last week was the Awards Night, during which each kid received a certificate and got to perform with their class. It was such fun to see Maddie relishing in all the "glory". Here are some pics of her and her friends, as well as a video of her singing. You'll notice that she sees me with the camera toward the end of the video and starts to really give off the extra cheesy grin - too funny!
