Happy St. Patrick's Day



March 2011 - Play Ball!

Sophie has started Softball for the first time. She seems to be loving it or at least the social aspects of it. For never have played before she is doing very well. I think the tennis she took helped with the batting aspect of it.

March 2011 - Shrove Tuesday & Ash Wednesday

On Mardi Gras/Shrove Tuesday we had pancakes and a little devotion/lesson on pancakes and Shrove Tuesday. On Wednesday we attended the Ash Wednesday service at church.



February 24-27, 2011 - Family Ski Trip


We took the girls, along with 2 other families, to skiing at Beech Mountain, NC. We were a little nervous about the 6.5 hour ride with the girls, but they were fabulous! It was their first time seeing the mountains too. The Tindall's - Ricy, Nancy, Dylan and his friend and The Hewitt's - Jamie, Mandi, Cassidy & Leigh Catherine went with us. We had a great time! Sophie took right to skiing and loved it. Emme was OK as long as Ron was holding her skiing, but got tired of it fast. So, I had to take her back to the house and missed Sophie skiing down the "big" (beginner/green dot) slope with Ron. He said she did great though.

First day of skiing


The girls love Dylan! We celebrated his 15th Birthday!

Thanks to Mrs. Nancy for keeping an eye on the kids, us big kids got to go skiing by ourselves for a little while.

Headin' out!


After a long ride home and unpacking Emme finally fell out on Sophie's lap watching TV. So sweet!






February 2011 - Valentine's & The Circus

Am-Ma came by on Valentine's Day to give the girls their special Valentine's.

Tickets to the Circus!
Sophie was excited - Emme was in a "mood"
So, the following weekend we went to the Circus in Florence.


They sat so still in amazement and seemed to really enjoy it.
Thanks Am-Ma!





Happy Valentine's Day
