Spring Time Fun

Come See Me fun has just ended and we had a great week.  We kicked it off with chalk on main, where the kids get to draw with sidewalk chalk all over main street.  Then we hit up Music Mania with lots of musical talent and hands on fun.  Of course we saw lots of friends from school and church so there was a lot of running around.  We also had the Easter Egg hunt at church (right after a soccer game), which I failed to take many pictures of.  We went to Sundaes in the Garden with Mother Goose, ice cream sundaes, balloon animals (and hats) and of course, our good friend Mother Goose! This weekend was Everything Trucks (UPS was a big hit) and Kid Fit.  The most fun was riding bikes on the Velodrome track.  We didn’t make it up the vertical though.  Then we handed out trash and recycle bags at Come See Me Tailgate and Fireworks.  We went home got cleaned up and watched fireworks Morgan Style, with jammies, cookies, ear mups (that is what my kids call them ) and our Come See Me Fireworks Viewers.  Whew!  It was another great week of Come See Me, can’t wait until next year!  Today, we just relaxed and James channeled his inner hipster.  Hope you are having a great start to Spring!

Soccer Fun

 

Spring Soccer has begun.  James and Gracie are on the same team, and I am coaching.  It is fun and hilarious!

More snow…

I forgot I still had these pictures on my camera.  This was part two of our snow week. This was one crazy winter in the South!

Daddy Daughter Dance

J and Gracie went the Daddy/Daughter Dance last week.  They had the best time.  As is their tradition, they went to dinner with another little girl and her dad before the dance.  They had a great time!  James and I went out to dinner while they partied the night away.

Snow, round two

We have snow in SC again.  We had early dismissal on Tuesday, and I don’t think we’ll make it back at all this week.  Oh, and we have Monday off for President’s day.  Oh boy.  J’s cousin Thomas is here with us too so that’s been fun.  The kids are bouncing off the walls, no school, about 6 inches of snow and a fun cousin to play with.  We’re having fun!

 

Snow Day!

We got some snow in SC, so everything has shut down.  We’ve taken advantage of the bonus day off to stay in our jammies (this seems to be  theme for our days off…), play outside, sled, and eat snow cream.

Beach Time

We went to the Young Life Regional Leader Retreat again this year.  J’s mom went along too which was big fun.  We had a great time hanging out with our York County Staff and Volunteers, we had worship with the Cash Family Band at the House of Blues and heard some great, Gospel centered messages.  We spent a little windy time on the beach, but mostly  hung out in the heated pool, lazy river and hot tub.  Can’t wait until next year.

Fort Fun

We had a long weekend for MLK day, and so of course we built a fort, and left it up for 3 days, and  mostly stayed in our pajamas.

Videos!

I forgot I had some videos on my camera. Enjoy these sweet moments. I’ve especially enjoyed watching the summer fun on this cold winter day.

Christmas!

We made cookies, read Christmas stories, had family over to our home, exchanged gifts, including giant bags full of fun, went to a beautiful Christmas Eve Service, set out cookies for Santa and played with our new toys in the driveway at 7 am. We packed up later that afternoon and headed to Edgefield for more Christmas fun.  It was a  wonderful Christmas!
