The Dog

Life is interesting with a dog. He is a good dog but he has some quirks and annoying habits. We got him groomed recently, quite an improvement.

Our Boys

Easter Eggs

Oh boy! Things are just changing in this household. I am loving the stage of life we are in. This year Brayden, our youngest, was able to get involved in decorating the Easter eggs. Look at those happy faces, a mama couldn't ask for too much more.

Our getaway

Over Spring Break, James and I went up and stayed in a cabin on Lake Superior while the kiddos spent some time with their grandparents. We had a nice, relaxing time. Played some cards, watched some movies, walked down to the lake and did a small amount of sightseeing. We had some coffee and at coffee shop 2 blocks away and even enjoyed a church service at a E-Free church a 5 minute drive from our cabin. We were only gone 3 days but it was much needed and VERY much enjoyed.

Birthdays

Wow! It has been a while since I've blogged. We've had three birthdays. Phillip turned 7 on Jan. 31st. Evan turned 5 on Mar. 17th. and Brayden turned 3 on Apr. 12th. Our boys are growing so fast.

Cake...a house

For Phillip's birthday we had invited some little boys over, that day we got a snow storm and school was canceled. One boy was able to come...he lives right up the road from us. :)
