Alley-oop

We cheered the night away at the Reed Varsity boy's basketball game against Reno High School last night!  Trevor brought the boys down for one of the last games of the season.  I got to kill two birds with one stone...coach and spend time with my favorite little sports fans.


Seeing as the kids don't have mini Reed gear we had to settle for Captain America and Iron Man!  I love when told to smile for the camera and look excited Ethan feigns excitement and Carter just can't be bothered...oh these two just crack me up!!


I think the boys (all three) were a little disappointed that Reno High School does not have a snack bar so there was no pop corn and Sprite during the game, but they survived!!  We had such a blast watching the Raiders keep up with the Huskies...sad they didn't win but it was good game!!

Groundhog Day

I know every wife says this, but I seriously have the best husband in the world!!  Yesterday, was a whirlwind day with Daxton being sick; having to go to the doctor; splitting the nursing duties; and then having a basketball game on top of it.  So in passing I asked Trevor if he could come up with something fun for groundhog day since we totally missed our usual February 2 breakfast and Today Show tradition.


As I have discussed before we subscribe to the amazing weather prediction of Punxatawney Phil, and call me crazy but I swear Ethan reported to me that he did not see his shadow this year which thankfully means spring will be here shortly!!  Anyway, Trevor did not disappoint in his amazingness...he threw together these adorable groundhog pancakes!  The pipsqueaks were over the moon and thought it was a super fun themed dinner!




It's time to be wrapping up my day and start our evening fun!  - xo



Welcome February

It's February!! Between celebrating our big 2 YEAR OLD, we threw up some Valentine's decor. Our porch decor is rather sad...need to step up on that!



The kids are making L-O-V-E signs for the grandparents this year, and since Dave and Elaine were up visiting this weekend for Dax's birthday I thought we should have one too!!  So, up it went with a jar full of my favorite conversation hearts...which may have to go into hiding because the kids like to sneak them when they think I'm not looking!


Finally, my sweet sister-in-law made me really cute "Be Mine" blocks and I've had this "Love" sign since high school so I threw those around the living rooms and voi la easy as pie!



So that is the extent of our Valentine's Decor this year.  I have lots of fun projects up my sleeve for the month so we may be adding to it here and there.  Dax is still sick so I better get to taking care of that sweet boy.
