Hanging Out

These is how we roll at the grocery store. 

Cricut Projects

Jason got me a cricut explore for Christmas. I didn't really mess with it to much until February, and I'm loving it! I have enjoyed messing around with different fonts, and clipart. 

Some projects!!

Painted Rocks

A few weeks ago we painted rocks to use as some garden markers in the garden. They had a good time! 

And Kylee found this rock outside, and thought it was shaped like Texas! I love how it turned out; we put it in the front flower bed!

And I think everything in the garden is officially planted, except the pumpkins. Can't wait!!

New Truck!

The guys brought back this beauty from a farm sale one day a few weeks ago, and we named it Baby Blue or The Big Rig! We can't decide!

Interesting Facts about this truck:

1. A Holik Bought it. 

2. It's a Ford.

State Tournament 2016

We went to San Antonio at the beginning of March to cheer for our favorite team at the State Tourney!! It was so nice having Jason drive us, and the kids did great! Hadlee was awake a lot more this time, but only fussed once going and once coming back! Not to bad!

Car Selfie!

The cousins!! I panicked the night before so I made Hadlee a onesie that said "hawks"! 

Love these squirts!!

Can not believe that they ended up winning the whole thing!! So proud!!

These Days!

January and February are my least favorite months of the year. After the holidays and then temperatures being colder, the months seem to drag on.

Thank goodness for fun things that occupy the kids these days!!

Kylee made a cheerleader at Potato Night at Awanas!

And she ate a donut on a string! 

Hadlee has been sitting in the big stroller a few times in town! She can do a pretty serious frown at times! Those eyebrows! 

She took a nap in her bed. And the biggest news, she has moved to her bed the past 4 nights!! Sad and happy feelings. She did not so good the first 2 nights, and then she has done great the last 2 nights! No she doesn't sleep with all that in her bed, or that blanket! :)

Family coloring contest!

We ate lunch at Rosa's for Mamaw's birthday. 

Hadlee loves wearing her monogrammed onesie!!

We watched the cousins play basketball! And now were on to baseball! And Karter's team got 2nd place this weekend, and he got a championship ring! He's a base stealing dude!

Kylee has started machine pitch baseball too! She's the only girl on her team, and the first day of practice, she showed up with a black eye that she got from messing around with her Daddy! :) She is loving it! And has improved so much already in 3 practices!

Jaxon started tee ball practice on the same days. He did not enjoy it the first day. He cried hysterically. Poor guy. It was a bad parenting moment, when I realized he's never done anything before, and when need me to help him a little bit out there. :/ (minus nursery, bible study, and mops)

Jason made him write me a sorry note. :) The second week, he walked out there by himself! 

Awana Sunday

A few weeks ago in January, we had AWANA Sunday at our church. The kids got to wear their vests to church, and say some verses, and do a few songs!

Maggie and Jaxon with their Cubbies class. 

That afternoon, the weather was gorgeous!! We really enjoyed the day outside! 

Valentines Day 2016

Valentines are fun! Especially when you're a kid, and you get to trade with your friends and classmates! Kylee got a gum ball machine for Christmas, and decided she wanted to make a machine for Valentines Day. I searched on pinterest, and we made a few stops to some stores, and got all the supplies! I ordered some giant gum balls from Amazon, and printed out the cards that said, "I CHEWS YOU, Valentine!" I love the cheesyness of Valentine Cards. You know where the punch line is coming, and you kind of know it! :)

She's all ready for her party day at school!

There were so many cute boxes!! The camper. Oh my! So cute!

Kylee with her class and the cool glasses!

I love the girl in the front throwing the peace sign! So cool!

Kylee made the top 10 in AR readers! 

And of course, this guy arranged for us to go out to eat one night. Left the baby and all! It was good! You know to reconnect and smile and talk. Talking. Somedays we don't get to do much of that to each other. Sigh.

All in all it was good. 

Stockshow & Carnival!

Kylee's grade got to take a field trip to the fair grounds last week. 

So, we tagged along! The kids enjoyed the petting zoo from a distance. Kylee didn't want to feed them, and the mama goat was about to have her baby, so……

And Maggie managed to spill hot chocolate all over her pants before we even got out of the car! 

They got to ride the train around the carnival! 

Most of the kids in her class. How did they get so big already?!

On Friday Night, we went out there with Josh, Melissa, & Jude to ride some of the rides, and of course eat all the yummy food! 

These two girls love the rides!! Maggie wanted to go on everything even if she was to short! She was so excited to be there!

This guy doesn't care for the rides to much. He would rather play games. But, we discovered that $20 doesn't go to far at the carnival with 3 kids. 

We also saw the cousins show at the school show a few weeks ago. They did good, and have improved so much!!
