Treasure Hunt

 Didn't get a ton of pictures of our annual Valentines Treasure Hunt but the boys loved it none the less. Well Chase did anyhow.

Reading the clues.

One of the prizes

Chase even made Brad and I a treasure hunt with pictures he drew as the treasure. He did a great job with the clues and was very proud of his pictures!

Ice Day

After a long drive back from Maryland in snowy/icy roads we recovered today with an ice day. We ventured out after naps and the boys really enjoyed it. Even Micah. He lasted longer than I thought.

Loved this one of Brad and his boys.

I was expecting to stay in with this one. Nope - he woke up and saw his brothers outside and was crying to go out. He did great!

Throwing ice.

Eating icicles.

Getting a ride on the boogie board.

Gavin pulling Jacob....

and not getting very far.

Look at that hair!

January

On a two hour delay from school the boys got up and helped themselves to cereal. We actually got to sleep past 7!

Sold my cloth diaper within a few hours of posting them online. Nice to have them gone! It was not for me.

I actually managed to do a little craft with Jacob.

Grandpop came down for a couple days to help out while daddy was on a trip. He was a lifesaver!

Chase got his first basket in basketball and grandpop was there to see it.

Daddy brought us back chocolate from Switzerland! These chocolate eggs have toys in the middle.

Chase went to pizza making party for his friend. His mom goes all out!

The next day we had a roller skating party.

Christmas Break

Working on the Lego train with Grandpop

Sickness was definitely pass around. It was a rough break in that regard.

One of the two pictures I got of all of us exchanging gifts.

We took the metro down to DC to see the national christmas tree with the trains display around it. The kids loved it. Perfect outing on a nice winter day.

Having a snack before we head back.

A view of the white house.

Waiting for our train.

Passing time on the metro with the 2 year old.

Jacob loved being with Kieryn.

Chase and I made it to San Antonio over New Years. We were hoping Brad would make it and we could go to the Alamo Bowl but he didn't. So we just hung out for a few days.

With his best buddies. This is the third year in a row that I've found matching train shirts.

I don't think Ryan was happy to take a picture so he did a terrible angle on purpose. I'm glad I got her in purple for the night!

We came back from Maryland and opened a few gifts from Uncle Scott and Aunt Brandi. They love their matching PJ's!
