    No Comments

    Packer had his 3rd pinewood Derby! Ben was so busy this year that Packer really made the car by himself! He designed it. Grandpa helped him cut it. He sanded it. I helped him paint it. Ben helped him put the wheels on. Benji and he did the graphite. And then he raced:

    HE GOT 4TH PLACE OVERALL! 2nd place in the backward race. He had a fun night.

    Happy Birthday to Ben!!

    The kids insist on giving presents before school and work! They all loved dads new toys and they spent a lot of time making him an arcade themed calendar:

    Erica watched the kids while Tiago and I took Ben out for a birthday lunch. We enjoyed the food and Tiago enjoyed the time with just Mom and Dad:

    With the new job ans all, Ben had to work all day. We had a busy day making the cake, babysitting Bennett, finishing packers Pinewood Derby car, soccer practice for Ben and Rose and the Derby for Packer. Then we came home and had cake and ice cream with Grandma and Grandpa:

    Ben is the best!

    the weather was so cold… and now it has been so nice. I am loving being outside and so are the kids.

    We stopped at the school because Ben is there every night for soccer practice. Kelsey saw us and stopped and they got a little 4 square game going:

    It was warm enough for water balloons and Wet Head and Water balloon Hot Potato and water Tables:

    Joel and Sean and Derek have been working hard on the floating campground! Not warm up there:

    These 2 kids have been SOO VERY clingy. Here they are watching me mow the lawn cause they don’t want me out of their sight:

    A little soccer and football and jumping on the tramp. The kids love to go out after dinner and postpone bedtime :

    Soccer Saturday (Benji’s team). Soccer Ice cream (I stayed home with Ago), and RSL with Fam and Friends.
