Where does the time go??? The last real post was in January! We have been busy with life & all is well with life. Aly had a season of basketball January-March and started piano lessons in February. Heather is taking gymnastics and continues to cart wheel her self around the world, also her last ear tube finally came out. The girls both took a cake decorating classes after school and are pretty much pros now. Mike continues to love his career choice and the adventures that brings. I enjoy trying to keep up with their lives. We have appreciated the mild winter and accomplished tons! We have enjoyed bike rides, smashing down our front porch, pulled trees that were damaging the house, celebrated Mike's birthday, and rocked Baby Paloza 2012! (Baby Paloza will get its own post later.) That along with all the homework, projects, & field trips have kept us happy & busy so far this year. Just a few pictures for your viewing pleasure.

The tree's are gone!!! It looks pretty sad with out them.
I really do like Palm trees.Heather & Aly setting the Leprechaun trap. No luck for them this time...

Heather & I on her field trip where we dressed for the time era and learned all about life on a farm during the gold rush.Happy Birthday to my favorite person!
Of course Mike enjoyed his traditional ice cream cake.

Oh yeah, and I learned to make jam! This is the best jam ever!
We are finding any excuse to partake! YUMMO!
