Spring Break

Well we didn't get to go on our 7 day cruise with 40 of our friends from here this year for Spring Break as planned but we had a blast doing things here at home all week long!  Lots of treats, Jammie days, label making, nerf battles, driveway racing, puzzles, cup shooting, sun getting, rollerblade hopscotch, dirt playing (wishing it was sand),  Osmo time, hockey shooting, dog and people kenneling !!, magnatiles, sidewalk chalk, lounging, Ziggle races, football throwing, birthday parades, Spring Break picture LOL and a zen sand toy win with the kids.  A spring break to remember for sure!

CPE School Parade!

Our school and teachers are so generous with their time - they drove by all the kids houses in a parade to wave hello.  Brought goosebumps to Mama of course.  It was so special.  Kids loved it too!!!  Seeing their teachers (from a safe distance away) was what their little hearts needed during this strange time.  Thanks CPE!

Quarantine Fun!

First week of quarantine has been relatively good.  Different.  Hard at times for Mama since change is hard and this one came out of left field and all of a sudden all these people are in her house all day but it's good and safe and we are together.  We stay busy eating, doing school, lots of puzzles, card playing, fort building, dance offs, coloring and eating (was that already mentioned?!?!  These people eat a lot LOL)

Snowball Fight

Do you want to build a snowman?  LOL. A while back after a snowfall, Trevor had the idea of collecting snow and freezing it in gallon size baggies.  Little did we know months later that it would provide some much needed fun during quarantine!

Hockey Championships

Trevor's Rec League hockey championships kept us on our toes!  Nobody could have predicted the ending!!!  Trevor's White Lightning played the Red team and were expected to win given the standings.  However it ended in a shootout and they lost.  Poor Trevor was the last person to shoot after many many rounds of clearing the bench.  His shot was blocked and the Red Team won.  He came off the ice crying saying the loss was all his fault :( 

On the other ice the Black and Grey teams were playing and Black was expected to win.  Nope, they also ended up in a shoot out with the Grey team winning.  Boys everywhere were crying.  So instead of White and Black (The BBros team) playing in the championship as expected they were playing in the consulation bracket.  The game ended in a tie and they decided to just call it a tie instead of end in a shoot-out.  What a nail biter!!!  Mommy and Ashley had to head to Tulsa after the first game for dance competition but glad we got to see what we did!  So proud of Trevor for how far he's come on the ice!!  

Today the kids had their last practice before quarantine.  It gave us the opportunity to present the Coach Pierre and Coach Holly with gifts from the team.  Each ended up with almost $450 Visa Gift card.  They were worth all of that and more.  What a great year it's been!!!

Red's!

Things are starting to get a little iffy with coronavirus talk so we made an executive decision to do family nite at Red's with a few neighbors before Trevor's hockey practice given the perfect 75 degree weather we are blessed with!  Wine was good, food was good, company was good, kids got to play....we had so much fun that they boys just went to hockey and came back for more fun.  I think we left at 9:40pm - whoops!  But, memories!!

Primetime Tulsa Dance Competition

The boys went camping for the weekend (except for the hockey championships) while Ashley and Mommy enjoyed dinner at the Holts with the Buchanan's who were in town on Friday then road-tripped to Tulsa for her dance competition.  She did so great and we loved our special time together for sure!!  After dance she could pick anywhere for dinner and she picked steak via room service so princess got what she wanted!  The next day we got up early to cheer on Production and see Kayla who student taught in Ashley's 1st grade room :). Then we hit Starbucks and Trader Joe's and headed home.  Zzzzz!!  When we got home we noticed her pants were all ripped.  She says 'That's ok, now I look like Mrs. Meghan!' Awwww!

Ashley Hand Rash

Ashley developed the strangest hand rash and of course, we want to remember it.  She said it itched but otherwise didn't bother her so we put Benadryl cream on it and gloves and off she went.  Weird!
