Snorkel Lessons

As we prepared for our Spring Break trip, the boys took snorkeling lessons in Nan and Gran's tub. Mighty even caught a fish with his bare hands!




Lion

At the request of Uncle Ben and Miss Rachelle, J set out to create a special painting just for them. Needless to say, we are all a little jealous.

Cooper

I just realized that we haven't included Cooper in the blog in a really long time. I think his first appearance was his last...almost a year ago.



Flag Football

We tried flag football this winter. K loved playing and loved having his dad as the coach. It was fun to watch the boys improve every week. I'm hoping they give it another try next year, as I think the boys (and coaches) figured out the way it's supposed to work for the last two games.

J entertained himself by running lots of laps around the track during the games while Mighty stayed busy with my iphone, trying to keep up with J, and generally taking care of trash for our area.





















Two Sports at Once

This is what happens when you try to do too many things at once. We only had a handful of pictures of J's basketball season...this is the best one, and we only have one picture of K's team. I guess the saving grace is that we were actually present at every game. We'll have to rely on our memories this year.

Pinewood Derby 2011

It was never a question of whether or not we would build Pinewood Derby cars this year. The question was whether or not we could actually be present for the race. Our year, in general, has been crazy busy and we have have been crazy to even attempt all of the events on our calendar. At this point, J and I agree that we should try to expose our children to different sports and activities. All of this to say, with a great deal of juggling, we were able to make it happen.

The boys had a great time watching the race and enjoying a few pastries with Dad. K even won a trophy for second place. He was super proud, as were we.











Our Boys

These are just a few fun photos our of favorite guys...
