Kade 4 wheeling it!

Birthday Dinner & BIG BOY presents!

After celebrating at school, it was off to nana's and papa's house for a yummy meal and gift opening (and...yes....this is about the time Kade had his first melt down).....until Daddy brought out a small little motorized vehicle with a bow on it, Kaden perked right up, when daddy said it was for him. It is a 4 wheeler- and no this one don't take no batteries. I think I might loose it-just thinking about how my newly 5 year old son is going to handle this-yikes!!!!

Kaden turns 5 years old!!!

Kade celebrated his birthday with his school classmates, and the girls and I went to his school to surprise him with, THE ONE AND ONLY Justin Bieber cupcakes. Most of you know he is a HUGE Beiber FEVER fan-so we just decided...." What the Heck" and let him bask in these short-lived JB days. (And the JB edible cupcake images were a HUGE hit with the 4 & 5 year old.

Breck Take 5

We said our good-bye's to our cousins and said our hellos to our Manhattan friends. We were able to hook up with the Walker's, Palmgrens, and Hodges at Keystone for some tubing fun and then again in Breck for some Monday afternoon skiing.

Sping Break Take 4

Day 4 was spent with our beloved cousins again....we decided to try out the new winter alpine slide on Peak 8-too much fun!

Breckenridge Ice Arena-Spring Break TAKE 3

A visit to Breckenridge is not complete, without stopping at the Ice Arena. My kids love to skate here, and it was even better this year with Jack, Lily, and Aunt Shelly. Good Times!!!!!

SPRING BREAK DAY 2

My kiddos hooked up with their cousins from Gunnison for the weekend. These kids have a blast together-they are so close in age, and only see each 1 -2 times per year, so our visits together are incredibly special. We hot-tubed, ice-skated, went swimming, and visited the Breckenridge Children's museum.

SPRING BREAK DAY 1

We started off our Spring Break in Breckenridge Colorado, and took advantage of the gorgeous day and immediately went skiing. The girls now ski independently and our little guy went to ski school for the first time. We had a great time skiing with the girls!

FUN Weekend!

What a fun weekend we had. Friday night Kiersten, Kade and I headed to Lawrence (for Kiersten's BB tourney), we made a quick stop at my favorite restaurant Chucky Cheese, and then headed to our hotel. We spent Friday night swimming in Lawrence, and then it was off to bed for early morning BB games. Kiersten's team did great and won 2 out 3 games. We had some down time inbetween games, so we took some of the team back to the hotel and swam some more. These girls were tired by the time they played their 5pm game-yikes. What a fun filled day. We headed to K.C. after the tourney and hung out with Grandma and Grandpa Sunday...what a blessing-filled weekend!

FUN Birthday!!!!

What a GREAT Sunday and GREAT Birthday. My morning started with breakfast in bed, and then another brunch at Early Edition (where Jordy Nelson was also dining), then it was off to church. My kids cleaned my entire house that afternoon, and then my parents came up from K.C. My mom cooked an awesome birthday dinner and we had cake. My family surprised me with an ipad (Whoot-hoo)-I can't say I have played on it yet-my kids keep stealing it :)! I also received these "smokin" HOT Mizuno Elixer racing shoes-so Awesome! We headed to the bowling ally for a little birthday bowling. GOOD TIMES!

A Fun night on the town

Scott and I got to hit the town Friday night! What a blast we had. Good Times with Great people!

Mini Cats-1st Place

Kiersten's BB team took 1st place in the Wamego tournament this weekend. Great job Kiersten and team!

Happy Birthday Juls

Happy to Birthday Juls. We all went out Friday night to celebrate..Julie finally made it to 30! Cheers to an amazing friend, runner, trainer, and mommy! We love you!

A Basketball filled weekend

This past weekend we had 8 BB games going on. Kiersten had 4 on Saturday, Karli had 1 practice and 1 game, and Kiersten had 3 more BB games on Sunday. Scott and I were exhausted. Both girls did excellent. Kiersten's team took 2nd in both tournaments, and played super tough. And Karli's Little Dribblers team persevered as well. Karli scored 8 points during her game. Great job Mini Cats and Monrachs

Kade's DISCO party at school

After seeing the Justin Beiber movie this past weekend-Kaden was off to a nightime DISCO party at his school (Apparently this was Kaden inspired). He of course rose to this occasion and had a blast. He brought the kids his microphone and amp, JB CD's, and his paper JAMZ. they danced the night away.......
