Phone Photo Dump 22

This past weekend, we had the opportunity to celebrate my HS basketball coach's retirement from coaching.  I'm so thankful to have played for such amazing coaches and with such amazing friends throughout my career.


 All 12 of our kids were with their grandparents for the evening, so we (along with our husbands) had a kid-free night of dinner & ice cream!  I love these girls and I am so thankful we have managed to stay in regular contact.

 

 A friend and I co-chair the Staff Appreciation Committee at the kids' school.  Each month we celebrate the teachers & staff in some way, through a meal or a gift.  In May, we amp it up because of teacher appreciation week and we do several things throughout the month.  We recently had our last event of the year - a sweets table for them.  Pictured below are lemon bars that I made....sooo yummy.  Check out the Pioneer Woman's recipe here.


 Nic and her family came up for Memorial Day yesterday!  I just love spending time with her & Jason, and all 6 of their kiddos!  I took a fun photo of all of the kids on my real camera, but I can't post that here b/c it doesn't qualify for "phone photo dump". ;)  Look for that later this week!

 

 


 

 Little girl helping the littlest girl get the ball in the hoop.  Love when I capture these moments!


 P is for Pajamas Day at school!  The Kinders "countdown" the last 26 days of the year by having a theme for each day that starts with a letter of the alphabet.  Meredith has just loved it.


 Worm!


 Brother Snuggles.


Being Silly!


 This girl is obsessed with the "It's raining, it's pouring..." song and you can often find her singing it while traipsing around with an umbrella.  Whether it's actually raining or not!


And, a little soccer practice for this one.  She is an expert trapper!


Rainy walk to the bus!


 She had a phantom owie.  But every phantom owie needs a real bandaid, right?

We gave potty training a try.  And then soon gave up.  I despise potty training.  My least favorite parental responsibility to date.  She won't go to kinder in diapers, she won't go to kinder in diapers, she won't go to kinder in diapers...


Story time at the library!

 

We got to visit Meredith and their classroom chicks!


This boy has an appetite!  This particular breakfast included several scrambled eggs, a banana, 2 pieces of toast and OJ....and if I remember right, he was still hungry!  Shane has also been asking for "daddy-sized plates" lately. :) I remember my little brother having a huge appetite also.  I joke that I am going to need to get a job just to feed my boys!


Shane is done with school for the year!  He is so excited and ready for preschool at Bethlehem in the Fall.





Helping the neighbors with some yard work.


Trip to Old Navy with my girl...


 

Flowers!  Weeds!  Whatever they are, she loves them!

 


While Kris traveled last week for work, the kids took turn sleeping in my bed at night.


War.


Sassy Soccer Sweetie.


Pringles on the driveway.  Life is good.

 
Love this.  Meredith drew a rainbow with chalk and wrote (though it's hard to read) God Keeps His Promises.


I'm really glad Daddy likes to play chess, because the kids love it and I.Do.Not.

1st Game as a Giant


 Caleb had his first game of the season last night!  He had a lot of fun, and did a great job!
