Timberwolves

We went to Evan's company's suite at the Timberwolves game tonight. We made tonight about Ryan and he got to invite a friend, since both Kyle's and Carter's birthdays fall this week. The boys had a blast and the highlight of the night was a visit and autographed pictures from Crunch!!!

Happy Easter

We celebrated Easter at my Aunt's house. She went all out, once again. Delicious dinner, cake to celebrate all of the April birthdays, a huge Easter egg hunt for the kids, the list goes on and on. We had a great day today!

Life on the Farm

We went up north this weekend and it was a flurry of activity. From playing with Grandma's 'new' cat Ella (actually it is the neighbor's cat that Mom and Dad adopted because it lives at their house now), to riding 4 wheelers and dirt bikes, to jumping on the trampoline, to coloring Easter eggs, bonfires, you name it, we covered it - in one day. Boys had a blast!!!!

Breakfast of Champions

Carter decided to have a little cereal with his bowl of blueberries this morning! We should really buy them in bulk!

Spelling

Ryan came home with this drawing from Jill's yesterday. Can you tell what he is spelling?????




Did you figure it out??? I knew right away when I saw it - it brought a smile to my face!


Need a hint?


It's our favorite TV show together...
