catch up...

hmmm..... where to start. i'm not sure i like this new blogging set up. my pictures are all out of order and i don't have time to fix it.....

so anywho......


there have been a few post lenten splurges. here is an example....
 my friend and i had a surprise party for our men. they were both turning 38 within 2 weeks of each other. a lot of planning went into the party and not much of it went as planned..... but it was still fun. won't get into that due to homeland security.
 here is the cutest little soccer fanatic....
 my sister had a baby!!! we had her little boy for a few days. it happened to fall over Easter. so it was fun having an extra kid around. we could take full advantage of the buddy system without a hitch.

this was also during a "broken leg phase" for L. she seems to have healed....
 Easter baskets in the making....
 a few pics from st. patrick's day????


 the birthday cake for the birthday boy.
 sweet Willa June. is that the cutest name??? i love her.
 more decorations for the party....
let's see... what else....


we got a new (to us) bigger car with leather and a dvd player to save mommy's sanity. we spend a lot of time in the car and baby R is still quite a handful. so i am more than happy to give him a paci and put a movie on in front of his face, i'm not kidding... lifesaver.

the school year is wrapping up. the 2 older girls are leaving on a school trip soon. we were a little apprehensive, so we and another school couple planned an adult getaway an hour from where they will be. shhh.... don't tell.

i'm really excited for that adult getaway.
