It's been a while

It's been a while since I've had the opportunity to sit down with the computer. We enjoyed a few days of nice weather and were able to take the kids outside. Now... it's turning cold again and Tom tells me there's even a chance of snow tonight. Most of the time we love living in Michigan but right about now we're wishing for some good 'ole Kentucky weather!
Reese aways has funny hair when he gets up from his naps. Drew has started calling him "Shaggy" (from Scooby-Doo) and I think it fits pretty well :)

For the Final Four we went over to Nate & Lisa's. We also celebrated my mom's birthday(she turned 40 this year...again). A few people got to watch the games on Nate's awesome home theatre system, but mostly we just hung out, talked, and played with the kids.

Tom was a hit with all the kids on the indoor gym in the basement. Our friend Jaden really enjoyed telling Tom what to do and Tom seemed happy to oblige.

This is Claire (on the left) with Annabelle who is two weeks older than Claire. They have no choice but to be good friends!

Drew will have his first soccer game on Saturday. So far it's been fun watching his team practice. Their team name is the Pterodactyls but after the first practice, when the coach asked the kids what their team name was, all of the players were silent. Finally, Andrew proudly raised his hand and shouted, "ANDREW". Not quite the right answer but I was still proud of his enthusiasm. That same practice they had to stop scrimmaging so the coaches could help the goalie who had gotten his head stuck in the net. Their game on Saturday should be entertaining...
