Enjoying Spring

Finally spring is here.....

Happy Birthday, Grandma! AJ's school music program

Easter Sunday

Lightly Row

Right before I took this video, Micah pushed the ball down the ramp using his forehead. He knew he was being watched so refused to indulge for the camera. :-)

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

The boys enjoyed celebrating daddy's birthday today. We ate dinner at Grand City Buffet (everyone's favorite). Each boy picked out fishing lures, and most of all just smothered him with love. They are blessed to have such an amazing daddy!

My Baby is 4!

Micah turned 4 last week. We celebrated a week early with the Peterson side (Happy Birthday to Daddy and Aunt Greta!) According to his brothers, Micah is the "master bowler" so we thought it would be fun to have a bowling party.

On his actual birthday, Ama and Agong joined us for chocolate chip pancakes. Went to Edinborough to play, and then enjoyed his favorite dinner of homemade pizza.

Micah, you bring such joy to our family. We love your zeal for life and the silliness you bring to our days. You are such a big boy now, and we love you so very much!

March has been a busy month - which explains why I haven't been blogging! St. Patrick's Day was never a holiday I celebrated much as a kid, but I really got caught up in the festivities this year. AJ had a school assignment that required him to design and build a leprechaun trap. Apparently a leprechaun visits the 1st grade classrooms every year, making the toilet water green and leaving notes and candy. So now AJ believes in leprechauns.

I've been savoring the simple and joyful moments with my boys, like lazy Saturday mornings watching cartoons, wrestling matches in the living room, cookie baking, and spontaneous trips to the Children's Museum. Jordan had his kindergarten evaluation this month, and it made me realize how quickly this phase of life will pass.
