Michigan Spring Break (April)

Months before our trip to Michigan, Ryan began asking Papa what fish would be running while we were there. He certainly has a passion for fishing!! While we were there, my dad took them fishing several times. It was too cold for me to go this time and I am thankful we had brought the boys winter coats! Here are a couple of their catches.

Ryan and Trevor are already looking forward to our August trip - - it will be Salmon season!

Reading books:






Ryan, Trevor, Dad and I played cards several nights. One of the highlights for the boys was having their own can of coke to drink while we played. Look at these Poker faces.





Not the luckiest of card players!

March/April

It's hard to believe, but it has been One Year since our sweet little twin nephews were born. Here are a few pictures from their birthday party.

Getting ready for their first taste of yummy sweetness: cake!!


I love how differently they both approached the cake! It was so fun watching them dive in - hands for Liam, mouth only for Ben:)




The boys and I are getting ready to head to Michigan for our Spring Break. Kris can't tag along, because he needs to save his vacation time for our summer trips. Sally and Jaden will be keeping us company, though. Since we will be apart, Kris planned a date night for us. We had a GREAT dinner at Baker's Crust. We sat next to each other, instead of across and we had wonderful conversation. Afterwards, we headed to Barnes and Noble. We separated for a bit and this is how I found him. Made me giggle!

We had to get new license plates. Sniff! - - Well, I have put it off long enough! They've been expired since January!! OOPS!! Now, I'll feel much better driving to Michigan!
