Random iPhone Pics

Here are some random cell phone pictures. It seems like I take more pictures with my cell phone than I do with my camera!

The first days of school

Here are the pictures of the kids first days of school while we were still in Missouri.

Somebody needed glasses

Austin got a letter sent home from school that indicated that he "failed" his eye exam and needed to see an optometrist. We went for his appointment this morning and he definitely needs to wear glasses all the time. He picked this frame out (Spongebob) and we'll pick his up either tomorrow or Monday.


And here's a little Halloween costume preview. We picked up their costumes at Target yesterday and they had to try them on once we got home! They're going to have a hard time waiting until Halloween to wear them again!

Our Alaska Adventure

Well, we've moved to Alaska. And it is cold! Here are some pictures of our adventure so far. (Click on From: Our Alaska Adventure to see them all) We are in the middle of unpacking and will post more pictures as we take them!





I think we're going to the Reindeer Farm on Saturday!

While the kids are away...

Mom is free to do some fun things! Like repainting a bread box! Fun! I've been looking for a bread box for awhile. I found this beauty at the local thrift shop for $2.50! With a little paint and a new knob, it's got a bright new future on my kitchen counter!

Backyard fun

The kids are having so much fun playing outside in the backyard. One of their favorites is baseball!




We got Abigail a left handed baseball glove so she can throw with her dominate hand.





I made them pose for a picture together.



Awww, I had to get them to show some love to each other too!







Even Lexi is loving her big back yard. She goes out there every time the kids do and can spend hours out there just by herself!

Baseball practice

Austin is playing baseball this summer. His practices are currently 2 days a week and the games should start after Memorial Day. Here are some pictures I took at his practice earlier in the week.

Dancing in the outfield!








Batting practice







Got it!



And pouting because he got tagged out at second base and didn't get a home run!



Let's hope the games go better! The league he's playing in is coach pitch. It sounds like it's going to be pretty relaxed when it comes to the rules so I hope he has fun!

Mother's Day Strawberries

A package was on the front step when we returned from a little shopping and lunch today.

Michael and the kids got me some covered strawberries...YUMMY!






They're huge!



My husband even upgraded while making his purchase, because what's a few extra bucks when you get get two dozen instead of only a dozen?

Happy Easter

Happy Easter! We kicked off our Easter weekend by dyeing eggs and making cupcakes on Saturday.





















The kids got up this morning to discover what the Easter Bunny brought. That's Abigail behind her new pillow pet! She has wanted a pillow pet for a long time!





Austin looks like he was picking his nose, but I don't think he was! He was excited to see everything in his basket.





Lego Star Wars III - just what he wanted!













The Easter Bunny did a great job getting the kids something they each wanted!




Happy Easter!
