Saturday morning, April 7th, we boarded the Carnival Splendor in Long Beach. Each afternoon when we came back to our room, our room steward Anna had a new towel animal on our bed.  They were so cute! We took a lot of pictures on the cruise, and bought 10 of them. ...

We flew to CA for Spring Break so we could go on a cruise to Mexico.  We're so glad we could take a few extra days to see family!  

Friday was an exciting day.  Molly and Ashley brought home their report cards and they both did great!  The most exciting part was finding out that Ashley tested out of RAP (Reading Assistance Program).  I have seen a lot of growth this past trimester and am excited...

I am really enjoying my full time job of taking care of our home and family.  When I stopped teaching after Sage was born, I thought for sure I would want to go back to teaching after Ashley was in school full time.  I'm so thankful that Tom's job allows me to stay...

We are all really enjoying our family dates each month!  This month, we went and saw the musical "Anything Goes" up at the University of Washington.  It was sooooooo good.  We had never seen anything by their drama department and were impressed.  The theater was small...

4 of the 5 of us were sick, one was at the Dr. the morning we left, 2 stayed home from school...but we decided to go!  Sage had tried out for All State Choir earlier in the school year and was selected!  Friday morning, when everyone was so miserable, we were unsure...

It's hard tol believe it's time for the AWANA Grand Prix again.  No trophies this year, but they still had fun!

For our 3rd family date, we had Afternoon  at the Secret Garden in Sumner.  We chose the Valentine Tea since Valentine's Day is on Wednesday!  Everything was soooooooo good and everyone loved it.  I think we all ate way too much though!

Tom had a short business trip this past week, and the girls had sememter break on Monday, so we tagged along for the first part of the trip.

We gathered up our snow gear and headed up to the snow last weekend.  There was a TON of it and we found a great place to play!
