Talent Show

So the school has a talent show every year for 3rd to 5th graders. Since the girls were in third grade this year, they decided to enter. We talked about a few different ideas and eventually decided to do a dance to Beach Boys, Surfin USA. They spent so much time practicing and coming up with the moves they were going to do. They were so excited, and so nervous. They even had to try out to see if they would make it. They were so scared they would not. I knew they would! We had lots of compliments on how well they did and how cute it was.

Jace loves football!

This was the first year Jace played football. He had been begging for a couple years to play, but I never saw anything come home about it until this year. It took him a bit to catch on, but he didn't really good. He wants to play next year too. He's even talking about watching football with Daddy and Grandpa! He never had any interest before. The very first game he got a touchdown. I was so excited I got it on video! He looks so grown-up in his official football picture.

His number was number one, which was the same number he got for baseball. Thought that was pretty cool. The coach of his football team is the father of his best friend from school, Khara. She is not his girlfriend, just his friend, as he will tell you. However, he did try to give her a necklace and earrings he found. Sadly to say she turned him down. But he took it like a champ. It was the cutest thing ever! They were always partners on the team, and it was very cute to see them play together. I was very sad to hear they will not be in class together next year. They have been together for the last three years. Hopefully they continue their friendship.

Easter 2018

Easter is always a fun time with my family. We almost always have it at my house. It's become tradition I think. Depending on weather, we had the eggs outside or inside if it's raining or muddy outside. Usually cook a roast seems to go over very well, thanks to my Dad's recipe! Now that the younger ones are getting older, it's becoming much more fun for all of them. We have to try to find new ways to hide the eggs and new things to put in the eggs.

Spring Break 2018

Last year we went to Great Wolf Lodge and spent a lot of money, so thought this year we would go somewhere a little cheaper and decided to visit Josh's sister Jarilyn in Indianapolis and go to the zoo and Museum. We also played laser tag but I don't have any pictures of that. Although that was the most fun thing they did that whole trip. If I knew that we would have just stayed in Fort Wayne and went to laser tag there! But they did have a blast spending time with Jarilyn and even Aunt Tracy hung out with us for a little while.

A couple funny videos are below. We had lots of laughs this trip and great memories made!
