Life Lately

Life is crazy and hectic and we're aching for spring around here! Cabin fever is real, people. Thankfully, the weather has been spring-like lately and has allowed these little hooligans a chance to get outside a bit, and even wear short sleeves some days. 

Little Miss on her way to school! 

I often wonder how we've made it this long with no broken bones. Sneakily watching things like this out the kitchen window gives me a good laugh. 

Yesterday morning for St. Patrick's Day, Carter asked me when the leprechaun was going to bring his "prize." Whoopsie! A quick trip to the grocery store over lunch and "Lucky" was able to drop off a few little items for the cuties. :) 



They even got a little time by the fire with daddy, which allowed mommy to clean up the house. A pretty cute scene out there!! 

In other news, Seth and I recently joined a fellowship group at church, and formed a small group. We've had a great time with both and are thrilled about the new friends we're making. Our small group is made up of four couples--all with kids and all around 30 years old--so it's really awesome. We're on week three and so far, we're just rotating houses and letting the kids wreak havoc in the playrooms. Ha! 

This past Sunday, we also hosted the appetizer course of a progressive dinner for our fellowship group. We did appetizers for THIRTY PEOPLE in our ranch house. Interesting for sure, but it totally worked! 

Carter starts t-ball this week (and I'm team mom, of course!) and Seth starts softball in about a month. It looks like life won't be slowing down for us anytime soon!

Bedtime conversations with Carter

Tonight, as Carter and I laid in bed together, singing and talking, we had this conversation.

Carter: I love you, mommy.

Me: I love you too, buddy.

Carter: I love you all the way to the sky.

Me: I love you all the way to the moon and back.

Carter: And I love you all the way to....Guatemala.

I cannot stop laughing!! :) Love, love, love conversations with my sweet 4-year-old.

Spring is in the air!

Finally!!!! Weather that allows us to go outside with a light jacket! It was 55 degrees tonight and it was glorious. While we made dinner the kids rode bike on the deck, we drew in chalk and threw frisbee. 

Only 11 more days til spring is officially here!
