JANUARY
Lots and lots and lots of basketball games:
We ended up going to about 14 basketball games during the month of January!
The kids were real troopers...most of the time:)
As
Burklee says "go
meangals"
Lots of fun enjoying the beautiful snow outside:
Kellan after a long ride in the sled. Good thing he fell out of the sled when we were close to the house
rather than a few miles away! He was not to happy with me :)
I was in Soda with babies while my parents were out of town and decided I couldn't waste the beautiful day. So I pulled the kids down around the pond. It wasn't easy but it was great to be outside.
Don't mind my stressed look...I
struggle when it comes to taking pics of myself!
Ammon and his buddy...they are growing up so fast! They love to ski together and then they just hop on the lift by themselves. It seems so crazy to me. The other night they went night skiing together and
Ammon said they just cruised the hill by themselves.
After ski lessons one beautiful Saturday afternoon.
We also had lots of fun inside:
Ice cream has become a great babysitter!
Just Dance!
Our Burks is busting seams!
I think we might have a little hurdler in the making!
I was able to take the boys to stay at a hotel . We had so much fun swimming. Ammon is finally getting a little more daring around water. Kellan was content to sit in his floaty and watch.
Ammon won an art contest that was put on by the organizers of Brooklyn's Playground. All the schools in the area participated and two winners from each school were selected. We were so happy for Ammon when we found out he won. He loves to draw and color and he loves playgrounds so I think it was a perfect project for him.
The kids are getting the itch to be outside! On a warm Sunday after Church they all headed for the swing set. They all stayed out until dark to take advantage of our first somewhat warm day.
Kellan went down! He was sitting at the table having breakfast when he leaned to far foreword in his high chair/booster seat and SMACK! He hit the floor so hard and blood was going everywhere. I thought his scream was loud but Burklee definitely had more volume to her scream and cry. I don't know if she was scared or sad...all I know is that she was loud! I had to have Ammon contain her while I tried to clean up Kells. It was quite the morning.
More swimming! Cadence, her kids, Whitney and Porter came over to the hotel to swim with us but before we decided to swim we had some pizza in the hotel room. Just imagine six excited cousins under the age of 6 running around a small hotel room....CRAZY! I can't believe we didn't get kicked out of the hotel.
Ammon had to pick 100 things to put on a hat for his school party. If you look closely you will notice his picked 99 pieces of candy and one letter T! The kid loves sweets.
