The Birthday Girls





Vicki and Leah share a birthday, February 26th. Vicki hosted the party again this year, which we greatly appreciate and enjoy. Leah wanted a Hello Kitty party. Our little girl is now 4 years old and cuter than ever!

Leah's 4th Birthday

Leah received a lot of nice gifts. She now has new spring/summer wardrobe and an Easter dress. She got lots of Hello Kitty paraphenalia and a double stroller with twins. She had fun wearing her H.K. doll backpack and pushing her babies around Vicki and Keith's house. The kids also played lots of Kinect and Wii. Thank you everyone for making Leah's 4th birthday so special!





My parents came for the day. They enjoyed seeing Brian's family and we loved having them there!

Presidents' Day Weekend


Our vacation friends, the Schasslers, met up with us at the Discovery Center and then took us out to dinner at TGIFridays in the Miller Stadium. It was great to see them!


On Monday, we went tubing with Kylie and Dylan at a small ski resort. The kids enjoyed this winter activity and spending time with their cousins. We haven't had much snow this winter, so this was a treat.

Milwaukee Museums

This past Sunday, we took the kids up to Milwaukee for the day and checked out a Children's Museum and a science and aquatics Discovery Center. The kids loved exploring and I enjoyed the beautiful views of the buildings, boardwalks, and lake.

Jadon enjoyed answering the bike safety questions and peddling a ball up to the top using this bike.


This was a neat statue of children honoring the flag.



We loved this part of the aquarium and even spotted a huge puffer fish.


Our brave one laid on a bed of nails!

February Happenings

We had a nice visit with Brian's grandma, Betty, and Jim at their home on a Sunday afternoon.


I ran a 4 mile race in Clinton, the B-rrry Scurry. I am front and center, posing with some of the ladies in our running club.

We celebrated Claire's 8th birthday at my parent's house, the day before they left for DisneyWorld. The kids enjoyed playing Super Mario Brothers.


Here is Leah at Kiddie Kampus on Valentines Day.


In the afternoon on V-day, my Momtime group delivered valentines in 2 nursing homes.
