Promotion Ceremony

Derrick was promoted on March 31st to 1st LT. We were so proud of him. The people in his class that were being promoted with him were all standing in a line and they went through and individual gave them their plaque and then they switched out their "pins". Avarie was able to pin Derrick which was so much fun to see. Here are the pictures I was able to take.





Random Children

Here are some random pictues from teh past month. I do have a video again so check back later for that to be added if you would like.


Avarie and Reid are the craziest sleepers I know. They almost always end up upside down and backwards. I love it!

St. Patrick's Day

On St. Patrick's Day we went to the zoo for some fun here are a few pictures from our adventure. As a lot of you know our children are animal lovers to say the least. They have so much fun at the zoo. Reid's favorite are the Rhinos and the birds. Avarie's favorites are the elephants and the big cats. I am going to add a video at some point of Reid, but I am still having trouble getting them to load so hopefully later today there will be some videos on the new posts.

Our World Through the Eyes of a Three Year Old

Ok so these pictures need some explaining. Avarie the other day got a hold of my camera and went to town taking pictures and these are what I found. This is life from her perspective. It is pretty funny. These are the works of Avarie.



ignore the messy living room.

Avarie's Newest Toy

One of our neighbors in the complex recently gave us this scooter. It is like one of those razor scooters, but has two wheels on the back so it is more stable for smaller children. Avarie has loved using it!!! Here are some pictures from her first adventure with it.

Park visit

Some time in march just before St. Patricks day we took a day out to have a picnic at the park. It was a lot of fun! Here are some pictures from the adventure.
