Life

It has been awhile and when it has been I like to play catch up, so here goes. . .

*Cody read the book Inkheart while Jonathan listened to it on CD. Then he took all the boys to the movies to see it. Both agreed the movie was NOTHING like the book. Chloe and I went shopping while they were at the movies. It was a fun night.
*For family night we went to Suessuical at a local church. It was put on by CYT. The kids really liked it. The Little Mermaid is coming in May and I hope to take Chloe.
*This week we have enjoyed two snow days at home. It snowed around 6 inches and made for lots of fun.
*We went on a hike on the trail near our house. It is lengthy, but a very nice hike with many streams and creeks. I was able to take many pictures and the kids were prepared for the hike with magnifying glasses, snacks, and water. Chloe enjoyed walking and riding on dad's back.
*Papa challenged Kale to not get his hair cut. Kale made it until a couple of weeks ago. Jonathan and I had been ready for it to be cut for awhile, but had not had time. Kale began to complain about his hair as well. So he lost the bet with Papa, but we are all glad to have lost the shaggy boy.

Life has, as always, been fun and busy and this is our slow time of the year. The boys are all doing well in school. Chloe loves her new sitter and friends. We recently attended a middle school orientation for Cody. It is VERY hard to believe that next year he will be in middle school. He will no longer be with me at my school. Cody is growing up so fast. Chloe will join us next year for preschool at Riverview. She can attend 2, 3, or 5 days. I'd like her to go for 3, but it depends on transportation right now. I am excited for her to be at school. Keegan has an addiction to all electronics. He would play the Wii or watch TV or on the computer all day if we let him. He is growing straight up; not out and eats like a horse. Kale continues to excel in school and has qualified for SCOPE for next year. He is excited about that. The boys will be joining the swim team in our neighborhood this summer. I think it will be a great way to meet friends and have fun. Practices will just add to the craziness of life since I'm pretty sure they practice most days.

I changed the background as March begins birthday season around here. Keegan will be 9 next week, followed by Kale turning 8 in April, and Cody turning 11 in May. Let the fun begin. . .
