A few April funnies...

Our first monster truck show. Boston was really excited and loved seeing all the trucks. However, even with how loud it was, he fell asleep at the very end and missed the freestyle event.

The kids loved being able to go with their cousin Ethan and Gavin.

I thought it was funny Boston kept wearing his headphones for days after the monster truck show.

A fun new "SPRING" toy!

Hanging out at the zoo.

Boston's 2nd Broken Arm

Well this looks familiar. Boston broke his arm while having a pillow fight with his cousin Ethan. We didn't think it was broken, and went to the monster truck show as planned that night. It didn't swell like when he broke his other arm last year. A few days later when it didn't seem to be improving we took him in for xrays and sure enough it was broken. Hopefully this won't turn into an annual thing. I've managed to go 29 years without breaking anything and he only made it 2!

New Room and Disney on Ice

Reese got her own room. She told us she was tired of sharing a room with Boston because he always woke her up in the morning. She upgraded to a twin bed, Grandma Debbie made her a lalaloopsy quilt, and Grandma Z bought her a fun new light for her room. We painted some fun colorful stripes on her wall.

 Disney on Ice. Rapunzel was our favorite part of the show.

The best part of going to see Disney on Ice for Boston was riding the TRAX. We also stayed in a fun hotel with a water park. The kids were in heaven.

Downey Easter Egg Hunt

 Easter Egg hunt with Grandma and Grandpa Welch. The kids had a lot of fun attending the city Easter Egg hunt and hunting for treats in the backyard.

 Their loot from the city egg hunt.

 Just a few eggs to choose from.

Preston Easter Egg Hunt

 I'm quite a bit behind on updating our blog. I'm going to attempt to catch up.

February

So this is the first time I'm posting straight from my phone. Here's a few random pics from February. Bostons birthday has come and gone. We just had a few family members meet us at the local arcade for some games. We were kind of party poopers and didnt really have a big party. Boston didn't seem to notice.

We've also been working on Reese's room. She's been wanting her own room for a while.

Also a few pics from Valentine's day.

Preschool

 So I'm going to attempt to catch up on my blog...

In September Reese started preschool, and she absolutely loves it! The best part Grandma Z is her teacher. We have to drive 1/2 hour 3 days a week for school (which definitely isn't mom's favorite part), but oh well it's just for a year. She even gets to see Grandpa most days since it's at the high school where he is the Principal.

 Reese does so awesome in school. She loves to write and socialize with all her friends the very most. When we're in the car on the way home she asks me how to spell a million different words so she can write them down.

 All ready for her first day of school, and of course she picked out a lalaloopsy backpack.

Boston is pretty jealous he doesn't get to go to school yet. A couple times a month we help out in class and Boston loves those days since he gets to stay in class with all the kids.

December

 These are out of order. For Reese's birthday we went bowling in Preston. Reese had her best friends and cousins there.

 My cute mom and sis-in-law.

 Somehow this Christmas picture got mixed up in here. Reese got a very nice dollhouse this year from Santa. Santa spent many, many, many hours painting, sewing curtains, making furniture, and gluing on over a 1000 shingles just to make this little girl very happy on Christmas morning. She wanted a dollhouse big enough for her big lalaloopsy dolls. She love, love, loves it and plays with it every single day.

 Our beautiful tree before it died. Seriously by Christmas it was so dry and droopy.

 Boston and his beloved monster trucks. He loves Monster Jam and can tell you the name of almost every truck out there.

 Just after Santa came.

Later Christmas day smashing up the pinata at my Grandmas house.
