Here We Are, Just Doin' Our Thing

I started this post and had a train of thought and then somehow didn't save it right, so now I am throwing these pictures on here to show you us...doin' our thing.

Ignore how hideous I look (though I seem to say that in 85% of pictures lately) and check out more of Annie's wild hair:


Looking cool in her sunglasses and snow hat, playing by the pool:

"Oh, it's cold! On my face!"

Evan swinging:

(Notice the red stripe around the bottom of our house. It's gone now...more about that in a later post)

For all you future MOPS leaders out there that think it is too much work or you don't want MOPS stuff to take over your house, here's one of the fringe benefits--doing stuff with the kids with the leftover supplies (these boxes were leftover from our cardboard testimonies at our last MOPS meeting):






I actually went out with Annie to the store and she had taken off her pants and shoes and just had on leg warmers. Add that to her crazy hair, stained shirt, and my sloppy sleeping pants and we were a paparazzi photo waiting to happen :) Just kidding, but it is interesting because I feel like people treat us "differently" when we look like that...

Sam took a Pee-Wee basketball class at the Aquaplex. This is the best picture we got, sorry Sam.

Now we signed Sam up for AYSO soccer. We asked Evan quite a few times if he wanted to sign up, too, but he was certain he didn't want to. He's more into dancing, sorry Jeremy.

Here's Sam climbing all the way up to the top of the climbing wall at the Aquaplex. (Bragging alert) Jeremy said the coach only helped once.

Annie is so lucky...there are always superheroes showing up to rescue her (and make her cry):


Trying out the zoom on our new camera while Evan gets the mail. The zoom is a good feature. The rest of the camera is frustrating me.

Another new camera experiment:


Here's a a once-in-a-blue-moon occurence...Sam sleeping in so long that he has to be woken up. I know the days are fast approaching when he's going to sleep in every day, so it's making me enjoy these early mornings more lately. I sent Annie in to wake him up--her method was putting puzzle pieces on his pillow. It didn't work, but it was cute.


Easter Saturday breakfast--pancake balls:


And lastly, a glimpse into our Easter Sunday photo shoot.

The only picture where they're all cooperating. But why is Sam standing like an old man?
