Bobby loves pirates

here he is being one

Ainsley's swimming field trip

They do something really fun in our school district. In first grade they do a swimming safety course for all kids. Sometimes I can't believe that some parents do not even try to teach water safety to their kids. So they do it for some parents. After the course they get to have free play in the water.

Bobby is 3!!

I can't believe he is 3 years old now! Time goes by way to fast! He is just a delight in our home! And learning so fast! He knows all his alaphbets and numbers now. He is talking more and more and he is doing so well in speech therapy! He is so cute and can not stay still when music is one he has to dance and groove its so cute! I am so glad he is in our family!

Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas break! My sister Helene and her family made the trek from Idaho to spend the break with us! Which meant lots and lots of time spent up at my Dads house with the kids playing and us sisters having fun! We even went to a sister lunch date! It was so much fun to have all of us together again! We did some work to my Dads house, cleaned out, sold some unused items that wore collecting dust and redid the master bedroom so he could sleep in their again with out missing mom to much. It looks great! We also did the annual christmas eve party with jonathans side of the family then our own morning as a little family, and then dinner with my family at my sister jenns house. It was so fun and relaxing to kick back and have fun!

Christmas Eve

So in Jonathan's family we always have a Christmas Eve party. It a competition in gingerbread house making with even a judge. We try to make it far so we draw names to who is partnered with who that way there is no practicing at home before hand. We also always have a Pinata breaking for the kids and adults to break. It is always fun to see what creativeness is shown and and what will happen at the party.

Ainsleys School Winter Party

Ainsley had her class party and I was in charge. I was really pleased actually. I am the room mom and I had no idea what I was doing. I love being room mom, and love being apart of Ainsleys school. The kids had a fun doing the game, craft and eating. And on the plus side Ainsleys teacher Mrs. Bishop is amazing and I truly like her! So it is great to work with her.
