Olive You

This girl.  
Her name is Marin.
She loves olives.
She sticks one on each finger before popping them in her mouth.
And yes, she had olive juice all over her face.
I love olive you, Marin Jane.

Carrots

Today was the day.

Hearing and vision screening.

Liam was convinced that he failed the vision test and is going to need glasses...Much to his dismay, including tears in the car on the way home.  So, instead of his usual after school snack of crackers and cheese or chips and dip or popcorn, he opted for carrots.  And then he ate an entire bag of them, totally convinced that they would be the cure for his ailing sight.  Poor little guy.  With both of his parents needing glasses at an early age, I hate to break it to him, but probably sooner rather than later, he'll be sporting a pair, too...regardless of how many bags of carrots he consumes.   

Baking Sweets

These three were in charge of making dessert the other day.  Although not the tastiest of cupcakes, they sure were the sweetest!

Winter Activities

Winter sports and activities fired up again this week after a nice long break.

Here's our line-up for the next couple of months:

Marin=Gymnastics

Liam=Upward Basketball

Ellery=Ballet/Tap

King of the (Snow) Hill

From when we were in the Arctic Minnesota.  This kid loves all things cold.

Happy 2015!

We're celebrating the new year by cheering on Baylor in the Cotton Bowl.  The last five minutes of the game were brutal, but we still love our Bears.  Happy 2015!!!!
