Brody's Art Reception

Brody had an art reception last week at his preschool.  We were to bring in their favorite project so they could hang it up in the gallery.  I did not realize they did this and as many of you know I do not like to keep stuff.  Hahaha so I didn't have many "projects" for Brody to choose from :/ opps!  Good things Brods didn't really care!  But I mean seriously he comes home with about 5 projects every day! He was pretty proud of his work!

Grandma's 80th Birthday Party

We had SO much fun celebrating Grandma Marlis' surprise 80th birthday in Yankton, SD.  Seriously what is more fun then a weekend in a hotel with a pool, family, food, and even an Easter egg hunt!  We all arrived sometime on Friday afternoon and the kids didn't waste much time getting in the pool.  Then we waited for Grandma to come so we could surprise her - and wow was she surprised! I think it took a good 10 min to register what was going on.  She just stood there staring at us trying to figure it out :) Then we all hung out and had some pizza.  The next day was her open house celebration - lots of people came to wish her a happy birthday.  I was excited that my felt car mat was used by some of the kiddos.  We ate and ate and ate some more and then went to church.  Then when we got back to the hotel we had an Easter egg hunt for the kids in the hotel - they loved it! And pretty much all rules went out the window after that as you can see from the picture above Brody and Ty are sitting in the hotel bed eating pretty much whatever they wanted! Sorry Nancy and Kelly - I hope you didn't have to sleep in this bed! We had an incredible time and loved getting together with the family - we missed a few people :( but maybe someday we can ALL get together!

ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK

I worked with Holly at a wedding in KC the night of the Kansas/Ohio game.  We were able to catch the last 3 min on the tv in the hotel lobby (along with about half of the wedding party).  We were so excited that we decided to drive down to Mass St as soon as we got back to Lawrence - in our dresses and all! (I was able to borrow a shirt from her brother who was staying down there) It was CRAZY! I've never got so many high fives in my life! We had a blast!

8 Months
