St. Patrick's Day!

Thursday, March 17
Happy St. Patrick's Day! 
Getting a good picture of these two together tends to be difficult!
Keelin came home from school and told me that the 3 leaves of a shamrock stood for God, Jesus, and God's son.  (so close!!!! but I was impressed since she is only 4!)

Run of Luck 7K

We ran in the Run of Luck 7K on Saturday morning.  Drew started the race pushing the girls.  He handed them off to me at about 2 miles and I finished the race pushing the girls.  It is fun doing running events as a family!  We finished the 7K (4.3miles) in 35:44. 

Keelin loved the bounce house!
All dressed in GREEN!
Emmy's 1st Race!
And she is off!
Born a runner!
She was on a mission...get to the finish line!  She did not need her mommy or daddy to help her!
Emmy getting her medal!
 This was Keelin's 3rd annual Wee Folks Race!
She ran so fast...I only got one picture!
It was a beautiful morning for a run!


Mamma Mia!

Keelin's Aunt Kate took her to see Mamma Mia on Tuesday night.  Keelin loves the music from Mamma Mia and often sings "Dancing Queen"!  She loves the movie too.  It was a late night for her but it was definitely worth it!  She loved the performance! 
Thanks Aunt Kate!

Keelin told me she wanted hair like a ballerina for the musical.  I did my best!

Fun Creations

I took some pictures of the girls today and I played around with some features in my photo program.




Fun Fest at Holy Spirit

Friday night we went to FUN FEST at school.  This was Keelin's 3rd year attending this fun fundraiser!  She was excited to see her preschool friends!  Drew and the girls ate dinner while I worked in the concessions. Then I ate dinner. Next it was into the gym for games!

A Warm Day

Today was such a nice day!! We were able to get outside and enjoy the girls Christmas present from Santa!  Keelin is a NOVICE driver!  She drove her sister around the block and had a very hard time staying on the sidewalk.  She did much better once she was in the yard and had the freedom to drive where ever she wanted.




Keelin...focused!  Emmy...can't watch!
 



Emmy enjoyed her swing!

Refilling the Beanbag

Keelin has a pink beanbag that was in desperate need of new filling.  I looked around Evansville for beanbag filler, but I couldn't find any.  I went to amazon.com and found some beanbag filler.  The description said, "2 bags" of filler.  Well...the box arrived yesterday and look what I found inside. (no 2 bags!!! just a box full of filler!  It was coming out of the box before I even opened it!  I can't imagine how much was lost before it arrived at our house.  I took a bucket from the garage to make the transfer from the box to the beanbag.  And I shut the girls out of the kitchen...can you imagine if Emmy got her hands on that box!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Belated Valentine's Day!


Happy Valentine's Day!



so...Valentines' Day was 5 days ago!  I have been really bad about taking pictures lately...or our life has just been too boring???? 
Monday we stayed home and had a heart shaped pizza from Papa Murphys.  The girls opened their presents.  Drew and I agreed we were not getting each other gifts...we bought a bag of peanut butter m&m's to share! well...
Drew and the girls surprised me with a new lens for my awesome camera!!! (so much for no gifts) On Wednesday, we all went running together and Drew told me I could go to Bob's early because I wanted to do a group class in the evening.  Little did I know he was planning a trip to get my lens!  I was so surprised when I got home from working out!
