March Fun

 I realize it's been awhile since I've posted and the last things I did share were our Spring Break and Easter pictures -- but I neglected the whole month of March!!  So, here are some random pictures of the boys playing and some of the things we did.

 The boys always want to do whatever Daddy does so here they all sat up to paint some miniatures - one of Jason's favorite things to do.


 Wyatt has quite the eye for it, despite being so young.

 The boys always love getting holiday cards from Nana and Granddad.
Here is Wyatt getting his St. Patrick's Day card while his brothers are still at school.



 Digging in to find his coins!!

 March is often when we find ourselves working out in the yard because that's typically when it starts to warm up here in Georgia.  This Spring we had A LOT of rain, which always bring the hillside down to a certain degree. Over the past few years we have slowly been adding plants to anchor it in. Some plants work and some don't, but we've decided that two of our favorites are rosemary (we fell in love with them during our trip to Italy last April) and Creeping Thyme.

 We are hoping the Creeping Thyme will really spread out over the edge of the hill and down the steps, as that's where a lot of the erosion is taking place.


 We also like the look of Phlox and the bees love them. They are a lovely boarder plant so we added them to the top of the hill with a row of rosemary below.









 I'm working with the boys to learn our phone number and address so I wrote it on the back door in hopes that seeing it every time they walk by will help it sink in.

 Then they can just write it over and over below.

 There is always time for some outside fun!

 Now THIS is one cool dude, with his sunglasses and skateboard. Love it!



 Ethan was trying to hula-hoop. 

 But there's more than one way to play with it.


 Then it was time to ride the skateboard. 

 And here are two randomly placed pictures of Wyatt playing with the castle pieces Daddy has been collecting.





 Now Wyatt is trying to hula-hoop too.

 Don't worry boys, Mommy can't do it very well either!

 Ethan and Jack finally opening their St. Patrick's Day cards.


 And counting coins.

 Then we FINALLY gave Ethan his birthday presents. Only two months late. Bad Mommy.  But it's kinda nice to have a child who doesn't care about presents or getting a toy every.single.time we go to the store.


 Educational...

 ...and fun!













 I'm happy that the boys still all love this playset.

 Jack doing some bounce backs - practice for lacrosse.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was

The Olympics

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've last posted a message. I guess it's been due to a combination of being really busy and not having much to say! Is that a contradiction? We've been letting Jack stay up late since Friday so that he could enjoy the Olympics. He really enjoyed the opening ceremony and has been in awe of the gymnastics. We went to a BBQ on Sunday night and just as we were getting ready to leave they put the ladies gymnastics on and all the kids say and watched. We had to drag Jack away. In other news, we're getting ready to do a really crazy thing. After only two months of having no debt and house payment, we're putting in an offer on a new home! We really had no plans to do this, but when we went to visit our friends on Sunday, we decided to drive around and look at the houses there. We had looked in there back before Ethan was born and fell in love with the place so we thought we'd just take a look and see how much i

Last Day in Prague

Our last full day in Prague. We had a late night parting the night before and a very early morning excursion but this was the one I was excited for! We did a similar excursion in Italy and loved it too. This was an awesome city bike tour to the Vysehrad Castle. We stopped for photo ops along the way - including here along the Charles River. But it's all fun and games until someone gets stopped by the Polizia! Before we left on our trip I was told to make sure you stay away from the police, so I was surprised to come up the big steep hill to see Jason stopped by one. I guess our tour guides didn't get the permit to ride in the park (too close to kids and a school). We had all just come up a big steep hill and were separated from the front of our group. Jason stopped to wait for me and the rest of the group to make sure we knew where to go. We had three guides, on leading, one in the middle who pulled away from Jason, and then one at the back.
