Play Date with the Greats!




Here's pics from our play date with the Great Granparents. Katie wasn't able to go because she's got a bug, so my mom and dad brought Zack over so all three kiddos could be there. We had pizza and played and they loved it! Riley was asleep before we left their block!

Request for Prayers x2

Two things this week that I'd like you to keep in your prayers if you are so inclined. First I got a call from my mom this morning and Deb, whom we just spent Saturday with, had a heart attack yesterday and is in ICU right now recovering from some pretty scarry heart problems. I don't want to go into too much detail, but just be thinking of them this week.

Also, this coming Saturday would have been Tori's birthday and I know Fred and Will and their families will be having a hard week. Please keep them in your thoughts. I think it would have been Tori's 4th birthday if I remember correctly? Also, they are expecting in June so prayers for a healthy pregnancy and baby would also be appreciated.

19 and Oh No!






Ok, so I promised pics of the awful game last night:( I was obviously cheering for Brady and his boys so I was disappointed for them! What a bummer way to end the season. But I must say as Super Bowl games go, this one was exciting to watch. Better than the commercials! So the first pic is me taking a pic of my parent's TV the rest of are the kiddos who didn't pay attention to the game at all. Except for a few "touchdown" cheers in random places, having nothing to do with actual touchdowns:) Riley was ready for "night-night" around 7:30, but she was a good sport and made it until the end of the game and even stayed awake until after we got home! In the pic where she's laying on the floor with my mom, she's "shhhh-ing" Zack who just left the picture. The people you might not recognize in the pics are Katie's friends the "Not-Westphals" Ok, their last name is Rosneau, but I am not sure I spell that right ever...plus I knew Michelle before I knew Doug so I just call them the "Not-Westphals!" Colin is their little guy, and is Katie's and Darin's Godchild. My friends don't love me enough to come to parties anymore:)

Play Date/Story Time at the Cooleys





This weekend is busy for us. I will post pictures of the Super Bowl party later, but yesterday we spent at my parents house with the DuRoche family (minus Brien...we missed you!). Scott and Danielle have a little girl, Ava, who is so funny! She didn't know what to think of Zack and Riley to start with, but they were all buddies by the end of the night. Chasing and running all around the house! It was so much fun...a little chaotic at times, but so fun! It's weird watching all of our kids run around and thinking, we used to be those kids. We've known the D's since grade school! It looks like we had a lot of story time at this play date!!!

Fun with DuRoches






More from the play date with our friends the DuRoches: Here's some pics of Deb and Zack and Ava playing Ring-Around-The-Rosie, Scott with Riley, and Deb with Riley, and one of Riley saying hi to "Frosty". Not in the right order, sorry.

Crafting with Mommy



I mentioned that I'm getting into sewing. I bought this carrier for my stuff and it came via UPS last week. Riley wanted to try it out!
