Let's Go Bluejays!

Dave and I put a Bluejay basketball weekend on the calendar and had a blast. We brought a buddy of Sully's to even out the numbers, and everyone had so much fun. 

We arrived in time for dinner on Friday evening and had dinner and ice cream. The kids explored the hotel for a few minutes before we came back and watched movies in the hotel. On Saturday, we explored the Old Market, had breakfast at Loula B's, popped into the arcade, saw the Bluejays lose, played some minigolf, and went to Spaghetti Works for dinner, a tween/teenagers dream day come true. On Sunday  we went to Creighton, Trader Joes, and Raising Canes. 

I promised the boys that if they each scored a basket during thier season that we would do it again next year, what do you know, Henry made the money basket during the very last game, whoop! Until next time.

February Fun

February brought a bit more of a slowdown, Sully played basketball on the D team for school, which provided unexpected fun for everyone and a good excuse to connect with his friends' parents in the dead of winter. He had loads of support at the game with family coming to watch the fun. 

Piper participated in book battles with her avocado team and did so well, and then had fun cheering on her friends in the final. 

Greta does her thing, continues to find her groove in middle school and is doing really well.
