New Playground

In March the kids got a new play ground. (New to us anyway) Ryann's friend was selling her play set and we just happened to be ready to buy one. The babies still had birthday and Christmas money and they really wanted a swing set. They are so happy with the new addition to the back yard.

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Of course Brie had to try it too!

Climbing the Walls

For a while Christopher's favorite movie was Shark boy and Lava girl. He would run around the house saying I'm shark boy. Then he saw the movie Catch that Kid. In the movie they repel and do a lot of climbing. So we moved on from being a shark to climbing the walls. He puts his monkey harness on and helmet ( that came after he hit his head on the wall) and tries to climb the walls.I think we had better be carefully what the boy watches on TV. Maybe there is a movie out there about how to clean up after yourself.

the Casa Grande Ruins,Over looking the city, on South Mountain, on New Years Eve and we had fun at the Phoenix
Zoo.

swimming in AZ In January

The kids loved swimming when we were in Arizona for Christmas. They thought that it was great fun to go swimming when most people were sledding.

Christmas 09

On Christmas Eve we sang Christomas carols together and read a a book about the first Christmas. The kids were very excited for the next day when they went to bed. After Christopher was but to bed he came out every time that he heard a noise to see if it was Santa.




We had a wonderful Christmas day together as a family. Brie however was a little over whelmed and spent most of her day trying to get everyone else' s new stuff.
