Soccer!

Tonight Ben's team, the Aftershock (orange) played the ever-talented Wildfire (red). Under 6 soccer with no goalies has never seen such a battle. The duel, of course, ended in a tie. But Ben scored the first goal...woohoo!!

 

Playing defense...to no avail.

Big kick!

The ending high fives may have been his favorite part (:

Back to School

Today is Ben's first day of Pre-K and he was SO excited to go! Uniform? Check. Supplies? Check. Getting his backpack on the right way? We're getting there...

Hooray for Us!

To celebrate being in our house and having our very own yard for one whole year, we made outside Twister and a baseball diamond in the back yard...ahhhh, the wonders of spray paint!

And...both kids loved it!

Mommy's Birthday

Ben and Katie made awesome birthday cards for me and the World's Best Ice Cream Cake...

Note that Katie has switched her crayoning hand!

"34"

It was also the world's messiest cake...Ben had to take his shirt off during dessert!

Gone Bananas

And we're back, after a four-month-hiatus! We made FAB frozen bananas last weekend and I'm hating myself for taking so long to make them...

Step One: freeze the bananas

Step Two: get your toppings ready (chocolate chips, graham crackers, toasted coconut)

Step Three: label so no one can steal your FAB frozen banana

Step Four: enjoy while little sis naps

Step Five: catch up with the boys!

All It Takes is a Man with a Mission

Two afternoons of Spring Break = 55 yard bags AND COUNTING.

Bath-Time Fun...oh how they'll hate me one day!
