 This year for Reesi's birthday she just wanted a slumber party.  So we had a bunch of girls over, made pizza, painted designs for iron on pillow cases, and had lots of fun and a little bit of girl drama.  

 Her real birthday morning

Annie Loves Baseball Season Too

Valentine's Day

After a day of Valentine parties at school, we did our traditional visit to Build-a-Bear.  This year they chose the same stuffed animal.

Random Pictures that Make me Smile

 Elye went to a birthday party at Divas and Dudes

 We've gotten Reesi addicted to a sleep mask.  She had to use a pair of shorts when she couldn't find hers.

 Emma's Birthday!

 She made this to give to Grace.  Apparently, they were having a debate.

 Finally some warm weather so we went on a quick hike after school.

 Elye got this big bear from Mimi and Papoo for Christmas and has to sleep with it every night.

 She always makes me stop on our way out of Target and take her picture.  

Field Trip with some crazy girls!!

Club West Volleyball

Reesi and some of her friends decided to try out volleyball this year.  It was a two month program where they practiced twice a week and have two game days over a two month span.  Reesi loved it!  She never pouted about going to practice and was always trying to play volleyball in the house.  She was so much smaller than all the girls on the team, who were nailing their overhand serve from the real serving line!  But Reesi didn't give up and by the end of the season she was getting her overhand serve over, maybe not from the real serving line, but it was getting over!!

Little E

January

 Little E decided that she wanted her hair cut short.  

 Adventure Science Museum with Easton.  For some reason, Elye was terrified of the body section and would not even step foot in there.  This put a kink in our day, but we made the best of it.  

Cousin Sophia

One of Reesi's favorite cousins, Sophia, lives on Coronado Island, which means she doesn't get to see her much.  So when she comes in town we always try to plan a sleep over.  

Somebody's Birthday

January . . . 

Birthday's are a great excuse to get together with friends that we don't get together with enough.  I think this was Candace's birthday and somebody else's.  Either way Candace set us up on the patio of some modern restaurant.  Definitely too cool for Larry.  We even saw a "trekie" there.  I know there was a group pic at some point but I never got it.  If you have it text it to me!!
