Park Days are Back!! YAY!!!

Spring temps are here and off to the parks we go. We took the kids down to one of our favorite parks down by the water.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Every year we head down to the Tara to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. The Irish Dancers always come to perform and the kids love it.

The kids always hit the dance floor after to practice their own moves.......

Kirsten and Shealynn acting silly.....

Lauren showing us her eyes......

Auntie Lin painted all of the kids' faces....

Shealynn and Grace "Irish Dancing"........

All of the kids with their faces painted.....

Holding the Olympic Torch

Aidan and Kirsten holding the torch. Brian's friend actually carried it and let the kids get a picture with it. Pretty cool, huh?

I know it has been forever since I last posted anything. January was crazy up here, lots of birthdays and birthday parties and I just haven't had much time to post lately. So, here is one shot of the kids from the other day. Funny thing is, this is actually the first time we could make a snowman this year. We have hardly gotten any snow this year and it was the first time it was the right kind of snow for it!! I am going to try to get back on track and back to posting as much as I can.

Happy B-Day Aidan!!

Apparently turning 5 has turned Aidan into a rocker!?!

Christmas Tree Decorating

If you know me, you know that I absolutely LOVE Christmas. Everything about it makes me happy and excited. I love going to get our Christmas Tree, turning on the Christmas music, bringing in all of the boxes to get started, having hot chocolate and so on and so forth......


Concentrating very hard to get the hooks on the ornaments....


Making a nose for "Rudolph"

Only a few smashed ornaments, not too bad.....

The finished product....... AHHHH, did I mention that I love Christmas???


After a long night of decorating, the kids cozied up in our bed and watched a Christmas special on tv.
