Mother/Son Dance 2010

Douglas Co. has a Mother/Son Dance which is held close to Mother's Day. It's similar to the Father/Daughter Valentines Dance. You have to be 3 to attend and I was so excited that Braden was finally old enough that we could go.
We went out to eat at Applebees before the dance so Braden could have bonless buffalo wings dipped in ranch. Then we went to the dance. They give the son a corsage to give to his mom when you get there and you get a professional photo taken and then you dance the night away. We had the best time. We dance and danced. Every song! He loved it. On the way home he told me that was his favorite night ever. It was a special night I will always remember with him. I'm sure he is too young to remember but he loves the picture we had taken and talks about it all the time.
Braden LOVES his Romo jerseys. He has several of them and wears the ALL the time! I surprised him with matching Romo jersey's for our Mom/Son date. He was so excited!

Since we were wearing our football jersey's, Braden thought it appropriate to have a picture with his football bear!

Tuck Baskets

Brookie's favorite pass time is to stunt. She LOVES flying. Jessie's came with us this day and I was able to get her in a few stunts also. They really amaze me! Guaranteed...I wasn't doing this kind of stuff at ages 6 and 8!

Jessie FINALLY lost her first tooth

Jessie finally lost her first tooth. She has been waiting forever. Brookie lost both her front teeth a month after she turned 5 and Jessie is almost 7. She was beyond excited! She lost it at school. She couldn't wait to get home and show us.

Easter...next year we aren't gonna focus so much on stupid eggs!

The annual Easter egg hunt at our house gets more intense every year.
1. The family room is only so big.
2. The kids are getting older and can remember all the hiding spots.
3. We have extremely competitive kids.
4. Brent, the daddy, encourages the madness.
This all creates for a whirlwind Easter egg hunt, which always ends with someone crying. But they are super excited to do it again the next year.

Hurry! Jessie Hurry!
Brookie showing how she has the most...again!
Here come the tears..."Brookie cheats, that's how she always wins!"

Braden just glad he got the blue egg.
(Jessie had to let him get it and she claim's that's why she lost.)

Ahhh...Lil' Nik Nik is young enough to still just love running around with the girls; not being to sure what all the madness is about, but loving it!

Coloring Eggs:
It's Tradition and always a family favorite!

Braden's blue AND green one mixed. WooHoo!

Nik Nik's yellow one.

Sledding at Heavenly

We only live about 20 minutes from The Ridge, a hotel of suites at the base of one of the Heavenly Ski lifts. After 5:00 you can use it as a sledding hill. During Spring Break we rented a suite for 3 days and took the kids sledding one of the days. It was a ton of fun...Cold but fun.Jessie, Kaylee Nicole, Brooke and Braden
Getting ready to head up the hill.
