I've been so busy that I have really been slacking on keeping up with this blog. I apologize. Hopefully I'll get better. But, as the boys get bigger, I find we get busier with sports, therapies and just life in general.
Hopefully these pictures of how we've been spending our time will help.
Jack really seemed to enjoy playing the clarinet in the 6th grade band. At the end of the school year he said he wanted to keep playing next year, even when all his friends said they didn't, and then he started guitar lessons this summer and has decided that he'd rather do that and give up band.
Wyatt had a busy year with lacrosse as well. He has become quite good for his age and it's been fun watching him play. He's really good at doing the face off's.
Coach Jason has enjoyed it as well.
Ethan has had another great year and has really become social. We have dinner regularly with two sets of friends and Ethan and Dylan have become fast friends.
This spring we got an invitation to come watch a practice scrimmage for our local professional lacrosse team, Atlanta Blaze. Both Jack and his friend Zac did training with the team's coach and got to train with several of the players, so it was nice to see them engaging with them.
They got to be water boys.
And got autographs.
Then we celebrated Easter the day before with our friends.
It was a fun night.
The boys checking out their Easter baskets.
Then Dad took Jack and Wyatt out to fish for the afternoon.
Looks like they all had a fantastic day.
Wyatt playing around and being the silly boy he is.
Some of my spring projects (when I found some rare free time) included sprucing up the yard.
I decided to move our little garden from the corner of the yard to the back of the deck. I was having a hard time remembering to water and pick everything because I didn't see it every day. This has been much better to have the tomatoes and basil where I can see them (and pick them and use them!).
Spring Break brought a much different week for us. Jack was invited to the beach with his friend's family so that left just the two little ones at home. We decided it was the perfect time to update Wyatt's bike as a birthday present.
He really seems to like it.
Just lounging around...
Building Legos...
And playing.
My other little project was to update this wall with some new artwork.
These are some special places for Jason and I and they include Seattle, London, Amsterdam and Prague.
And then back outside to spruce up the front yard.
With mulch.
New plants.
Veggies.
This face!!
Some climbing vines.
The water boy status moved with them from the scrimmage to actual games.
What lucky kids!
