safety first..

For sure one should wear their science experiment goggles when one is going to use the biggest nerf gun on this Earth.. for sure..

AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!

Well.. we have purchased our first home! It is very exciting, and a little stressful.. :) We have been looking for a very long time.. In fact, when we drive around looking so much that our kids ask if we are driving to look at houses or are we "really" going somewhere! Here are a few pictures..

The Milks here...

Friday morning is when the milk man brings our weekly milk.. recently there was another delivery...

rocking out...

Our friends have rock band world tour and have been telling us how fun it is.. we finally got to try it out. It was very fun. Violet clearly a big fan of the drums.. she was just whacking away having a blast. I think the moms liked it more than the kids.. We were rock stars for a moment.. :)

tennis tourney

last weekend, Parker had a tennis tournament.. I use this term loosely.... tournament.... She had a great time and hung in there.. She is getting much better and really enjoys it. Her school has an amazing gym teacher who has after school sports programs and camps.. She has a really great serve actually... p.s. Her partner is as tall as me..

cooking

Violet love to cook.. It drives me crazy.. really crazy.. I do not want her to hurt herself by cutting and or burning herself.. but she insists. I cannot leave her in the kitchen alone if I am cooking something because she will start cooking .... Case in point.. note the boiling.. steaming.. water next to her... she completly can make scrambled eggs from start to finish by herself as well.. :) scary...

her first flowers

Bryce is quite the ladies man.. He brought Violet flowers the other morning.. It was very sweet..

Daddy send the girls flowers for Valentines every year but this was the first time from a "boy".

His mom said he saw them at the store and wanted to get them for Violet... :)

a new quilt

Grandma lights has been making Parker a quilt. It arrived and went straight to the bed.. She loves it and calls it her sweet dreams quilt.. Thank you Grandma.. you did a great job!

by the way.. Abe thinks he has one coming...
