January Recap

All too soon Christmas vacation came to an end and we were back in school. 

Owen working hard at my station at preschool.

Eden comes home with us once a week after school to hang out and play.  And of course do nails and "yipstick"

He has an affinity for being upside down.

Auntie Andy reading Owen one of his favorites at school

Sweet preschool buddies.

And sweet 1st grade friends (who have known each other since preschool, so so special)

One Friday I dropped off Scott's bike while he was at school and then rode to come get him so we could ride home together.  I wasn't sure how it was going to go so I gave us plenty of time and did it on a day we had extra time before picking up Owen.

He did great.  We were home in 15 mins.  We can't wait to do it again (unfortunately weather and sickness have kept us from it since)

Friday night fun at our friends house.

Owen and I had a yoga morning while Scott was at baseball tryouts.

He's a pretty fierce planker...

Scott at tryouts, captured by Brian.  He was pretty nervous but he worked through the nerves and had a really great time.  So proud!

Another weekend, another family hike.  I sure do love where we live!

Favorite little hikers.

Hanging out at Mimi's with this cute face is always one of our favorite things to do:

And this trip to Mimi's we finally did our bottle rocket experiment we've been waiting to do with Mimi and Papa for ages.

It did not disappoint.

We have definitely had lots of rain this winter and we are grateful for it.  We are trying to make the best of it by splashing in the puddles and collecting worms.  And one weekend we had enough rain in our gutters to make boats and race them.

They did it over and over until every inch of them was soaked and the rain started really getting torrential

While Brian was at FIO this year the boys and I had a sleepover at Auntie's.

 Followed by a walk to down town for coffee and donuts for breakfast the next day.  Love these 4!
