Talia's art


Talia has been begging for weeks to paint a copy of a picture she drew of saturn and the moon and stars. This picture has also been the center of 2 songs and a poem. So over spring break I finally got her a canvas and paint and this is the finished product.

Fans

Ok I have just done some major back blogging. I really should keep up on it so it's not so much work to do it all at once. But as always life gets in the way.


So we finally broke down and got fans for the house. We got 3. 1 for the loft ,1 for the living room and 1 for our bedroom. George installed all of them and did a great job for it being his first time installing a fan :)
This fan is in the loft This fan is in our room.
This fan is in the living room. We have and angled 25 ft ceiling so we had to drop the fan about 4 feet so it would keep us cool.


Spring break

This past week was spring break here in Texas. I took the week off work to spend time with the kids. We spent time at the park, Chuck-E-Cheeses and The Natural bridge caverns. The caverns were fun, way over priced tho. But the kids enjoyed it, and thats all that matters right!




















Oscar party and Valentines day

So I threw my first Oscars Party, It was fun and I hope to throw one again next year. Good food and good company. However my camera was misplace during the party so I only have the set up :(

Oh and just a pic of Valentines day dinner. The Kids each woke up with a heart baloon and a cup of candy in there room. They loved it!
I love this pic of her jumping!

Daddy daughter dance

Another Daddy daughter dance. The city we live in Schertz threw a daddy daughter dance at the civic center, so of course the dad nad the daughter went. talia had so much fun. The theme was candyland. She danced and played with baloons and ate sweets. It was a perfect night untill she lost the flower on her dress. She noticed it was gone and told Larsen, they looked for it and couldn't find it, She ten told him she needed to leave right then. As soon as they got outside she started balling she cried all the way home she was so upset. At least she had some fun.








Sprinklers and projects!!





































The sprinkler pics were taken back in february on presidents day. It got to 85 outside so we let them play in the sprinkler. The project is mini air hockey table that Talia and Larsen wanted to build. She had so much fun making it and using all the power tools. I laughed at her cause she hides and cries when the vacuum comes near her, but she ready and willing to user a power drill. silly girl. The boys spent most of the time sitting in the land cruiser pretending to drive it! And fighting over who gets when they grow up. Nerds!








Ever's mountain and solar system






















Ever had to do and earthquake project for school and he chose to show an earthquake shaking a mountain. He also decribed how earthquakes can make mountains. He had a blast making this little model. He also had to make a model of the solar system and decribe each planet, he also had to choose his favorite planet and do a little oral speech about it. (He got an A on both)












Monster jam
















Larsen took the boys to MONSTER JAM back in Janauary. They had a blast! thata all hey talked about for days on end. Keyser got a shirt and had a bunch of drivers sign it and ever bought a couple of monster trucks to add to his ever growing collection.
