Game Ball!!
Yesterday Jack got the Game Ball at his baseball game! He was very excited!! We are so proud of him :) Each boy on the team has signed the ball & he just loves it!!
Kylie & Angela came to cheer Jack on at the game!
We are so proud of our little ball player :)
We went to Bob's Big Boy to celebrate Jack's great day!
Kylie & Colby played & cheered the whole game! They had a great time!
Colby was beyond dirty by the end of the game! This picture doesn't even do him justice..
Colby kept following around the ice cream man....the poor guy finally just gave one to him!!

Off Track Adventures
The boys & I had a lot of fun on our off track month. We spent a week up at Nana & Poppy's, and then spent a few weeks just hanging out at home. We did a few fun field trips & enjoyed our time together :)
We went Strawberry Picking at Cal Poly Pomona...

Colby ate ALL of the strawberries that he picked :)
We had a week of really hot weather, close to 100 degrees! So we went next door & swam at the Hertica's. We are having a lot of fun with them as our neighbors, sharing lots of meals & hanging out. It should be a fun summer with the pool & friends next door!


The boys & I went to the Long Beach Aquarium with our friends, the Sodemans. I joined the aquarium, so we can go back as many times as we'd like this year!
Petting the sting rays....
Jackson making a Sea Lion turn over & over again, following his hand!



My room mom gave us tickets to the Detroit v. Angels game at the end of April...they were awesome seats, right behind Detroit's dugout! We made it all the way to the 5th inning :)
Colby sat on my or Kaleb's lapt the entire game. It was "too wowd" for him :)
Jack & I both conveniently left our sweatshirts at home, so we each got a new one :)

Let's Go Fly a Kite...
On Easter Sunday we decided to go to the park and fly a couple kites! The kids (and dads) had a great time! Fun photos too :)

Colby couldn't wait to swing & get "under doggies" from Daddy!!

Happy Easter!!!
Happy Easter!! Today is a day where I am reminded of what Jesus did for me, as well as how blessed I am with my hubby & boys...I don't know how I got so lucky!

I love when Colby looks at Jack like this :)

After church, we had a big easter egg hunt in our yard & the Hertica's yard!! The kids had a lot of fun :)


The other 3 kids went to to the Hertica's yard first...Colby made out by doing our yard by himself!!
All four kiddos with their baskets...and not too interested in taking pictures :)

Boys Night Out
Last night Jack & Daddy had "Pals Night" at preschool...Daddy took Jack out to dinner & then they went on to preschool for some arts & crafts. They made a train whistle, a kite, and an airplane..Fun boys night out :)
They made this kite...Jack drew a picture of Daddy & vice versa...I love the "freckles" Jack put on Daddy's face :)
Easter Cupcakes
Jack & I have had a great week, just spending time together. We baked Easter cupcakes together & had fun frosting them...I am so happy I got this time with just Jackson!

Somehow it ended up on his nose!
We ended up taking the cupcakes to preschool that day & sharing with his friends!
