Here is a little of what we have been up to lately. For some reason I am having a hard time getting back into blogging. We haven't done much so maybe that is why. Anyway....

Wes parents were gone a few weeks ago and we went up to feed all the animals. The kids have a blast doing this. Maybe because now papa has chickens and they love to go get the eggs. It is always exciting feeding the emu's. Connor is hilarious when he feeds them. He walks up very slowly then throws the bowl of corn at them. Madison has done it for so long that they do not bother her at all. And Hannah the princess, well, she doesn't really like any of it but getting the eggs. And thats if they are clean. She is very cautious!!

My dad also had a big birthday in February!!! He turned 50 this year! We weren't able to do to much for his birthday! I was extremely sick and he wasn't able to come home from work. So we celebrated a few weeks after and went to lunch with them at the Old Spaghetti Factory. My dad is so fun with my kids! He loves them so much! I have the best dad in the world!! Happy Birthday Dad! We love you lots!





We finally were able to get the boat on the lake! Wes has been up a few times but this is the first time we went with him. He checked the lake everyday, twice a day, for several weeks to see if the ice was starting to melt off. We sure had fun but it was cold. It was a nice day to start off then the horrible wind came up. The girls reeled in a fat trout and connor reeled in a nice one as well. I think we will wait for it to warm up a little before we head out to the lake again.








We have had a few nice days and the kids have loved being outside again. Connor found a "Hat" (Madison's bike helmet). And wore it for the rest of the day. He loved that thing. It was so funny!



Well now I will try to keep up on things better! I need to start being so lazy!!
