TIme with Friends

So finally caught up a little bit with our lives. These are recent pictures of Peyton and Carson with some of their best friends.

Peyton went to see Annie with Alli and Carson went to a roller skating party.

Pajama Party

Peyton and Carson had a pajama party with their cousins-Connor and Samara. It was a lot of fun.

Sophia's baptism

My best friend had her daughter, Sophia baptized. She is so beautiful so I wanted to share.

Swim for A Cure

Washington Township Girls team at Team Breakfast Washington Township and Cherry Hill West

This year the girls swim team joined up with Cherry Hill West and held a swim meet for Breast Cancer and Pancreatic Cancer. We raised over $4,000 for both causes. It was a great day. The parents had a breakfast for the team prior to the meet and the excitement of the day allowed us to have one of our best meets of the season. It was a very blessed day and it was great to show our love and support to those that have been affected by Breast and Pancreatic Cancer.

Brutus

So for those of you that may not know-we did get a dog. His name is BRUTUS. He is a Yorkie-Bichon mix. He was born Dec 16, 2009 and came into our home on Valentine's Day 2010. He is came home at 3lbs and now is close to 5lbs. He is so sweet and really good. We are blessed to have the help of our neighbor to help during the days when we are at work. He sleeps in his cage all night and is very playful with the kids. He has been a great addition to the family and we look forward to sharing his love with all of you as well.

Snow Snow and More Snow

Enjoying a great day out in the snow.

Building a tunnel through the fort.

Trying to get over the wall.

Natalie came over to have a snow ball fight.

It was a blizzard.

The dog's first day on snow. He was so light that he was able to walk on top of it.

So it has been forever since I have been able to blog and most of that is related to coaching. But now as I sit here and finally have time to get my thoughts in order I realize how important my family is and the time I share with them priceless. For many of you know we have been hit with snow beyond belief. I don't even know exactly how much, but I do know it has been record breaking amounts. We just had a storm that they labeled a snowicane. It gaves us another 8 inches of snow. They are calling for another storm. This week. We have had over 6 days off of school total so far and March isn't over. God has blessed us with many things and the snow is a blessing as well. It has made me find ways to draw closer to him and in long days of work have been great to be able to spend unexpected weekdays with Dave and the kids. Hope you enjoyed the pictures we've shared.

CHRISTMAS EVE

At Kelly's we had a wonderful dinner. She made a seafood stew, shrimp scampi, and lasagna. We went to her church services and afterwards had a really nice time enjoying the celebration of preparing for our Savior's birth.
Mike and his girlfriend Emily joined us as well. Peyton, Carson, Connor, and Samara enjoyed playing with each other and never get tired of running around, being silly with each other. It was so nice to have my sister, brother, and parents together.
