First 5K Run

We did our first 5k run as a family and it was incredibly fun!
I never thought I would say that about a run (walk) but still it was awesome.  
Loved having Luke as my little walking buddy.  
He kept asking why we were walking not driving.  
Jer accidentally pinned his bib on Luke and Luke's bib on him, 
so Luke won 1st place for his division even though he came in last 
(sorry Colten, looks like slow and steady does win the race:).
Loved seeing so many people we love out there racing with (past) us.
Love that Jer finished then ran back to meet Luke and me and finish again with us.
Love the amazing community we live in that rallies around to support amazing causes.  
And love that Hallsey family!

Toothless Luke

Luke was pretty terrified about that little loose tooth.  He couldnt eat and thought his world of food might be coming to an end.  He plead for more TV time to help ease the pain.  And with negotiations in place, he let me pull it out (and boy did i love that!).

April Fools 2013

Oh yes we were at it again this year, but we decided to go broad daylight for a change.   Maybe not the best plan. We got caught red handed by one family and had to make 2- 3 attempts at other places because people for some reason were hanging out in their front yards today.
and the WIND did not help!
Rough as it was we knocked em out and not one of our victims suspected us. 
Not even for a second. 
Hahahaha.
But I do have to concede that the payback came before our attack this year.  I was teaching preschool and my boss came in my room all panicked.  She wanted to know where I parked my car.  I immediately freaked out thinking someone had hit it.  She then told me that some lady was doing something to it and I COMPLETELY FREAKED OUT.  Until she said it was a blond lady and I realized I knew exactly what was going down.  Funny how a few other teachers were watching her too, just a-wondering why some stranger was messin with my car.  So glad they all ran out to scare her away!  
Loved all the honks I got and the looong conversation I had with Sarah's neighbor about her family and all the birthdays they have on April Fools and how much my car sign meant to her and her son.  
It was a fabulous day I think mostly because even Jer got geared up and in the holiday spirit this year!
HAPPY APRIL FOOLS DAY!

Easter 2013

Image
 Perfect morning with a little sleeping in, an awesome breakfast and a little Easter Story by Jer.
And of course some egg hunting.
Image

Image

Image

Image

Image
 And egg coloring
Image
 and more egg hunting...
Image

Image

Image

Image
 good thing we remembered to tell the girls the hunt was on:)

Image
Thanks for all the fabulous food, great stories and 
devastating losses at games like catch phrase but not crazy golf.  
Easter this year was perfect!

There's No Place Like Home

Image
 ...was the theme we went with this Spring Break and it turned out fabulous!
And seeing how our original destination was camping, I think we did alright.
We booked a night at the JW(thanks to our inside source) and lived it up in style.
Image
The Nightlife was fab...we hardly saw these girls at all.  They were out and about.
Image
These guys were content to hang out with the game cube.
Image

Image



Image



Image
These guys loved the stairs and fountains.

The pool the next day was heaven.
The Fischers poolside
The Vals

Luke got pretty sunburned and was loving the shade of the hat.
And we even got a little tennis in.


It was a dreamy staycation, just wish it could have been longer.
I have a feeling we will be back!
