February fun!

Grampa Todd had some great helpers for his project this trip!! They really know how to supervise!

Brilee's teacher came to one of her basketball games, made her entire day!!

Finished product!!

Brexten gets to be my side-kick for a lot of his siblings sporting events that he isn't quite big enough for yet.  He is the best cheer-leader for all of them!

Post-game snack - the reason a lot of them even play!

Brexten has a big crush on one of his friends older sisters, she is so so good with him!

Brilee and her bestie from k and 1st grade got to play basketball together this season - they spent most of their time doing this

Bria had a super fun birthday party at the skating rink this year, it was the first time any of the kids have ever skated

I just had surgery so daddy got to go out there with them:)

Brilee and Anna have done a few cheer camps together, in the fall they cheered during a Mead football game, but this time it was during a huge rivalry basketball game - she loved every minute

Bryden turns 6!

My favorite little curly-haired boy turned 6!  It was really fun to be able to have his siblings - minus Brilee, we found out later sure had Influenza A! - his friends from preschool and his new friends from kindergarten all join him

The climbing gym really was a perfect place for them all

He is just the best!

Grampa Todd was here so made him a special #6 pancake on the morning of his big day

And the best big brother around wrote him a sign in Red Robin

This boy is always happy!!

Happy 6th Birthday to my sweet rainbow baby that is the very definition of all things happy!! We love you so much!!

Brennar's surprise birthday party

We watched Lucy for a few days - how cute are these 3 goldens?!?! I am totally convinced we could have another one!

Brennar turned 10 and we told him no more birthday parties, which he thought was okay, mostly because we got him tickets to the nuggets game for his birthday!

We went out to Montana Ted's in Denver before the game - it was really fun to just be a family!

Then we took them to the Nuggets game!  We told Brennar his surprise was that we got us a suite, he was SO excited!

Happiest little guy around! The big surprise was that 4 of his best friends and their families showed up!

What's even better is that we love their families, so it was a party for all of us!! Happy 10th Birthday!!

 

Not sure why, but every time we go to Scheels we have to get all of these very same pictures!

Basketball season!

The 3 older kids started basketball in early January.  Brennar played with a mostly new team.  He moved to a different league so he could be challenged a little more.  He had a blast playing with a few buddies and some new teammates.

This cutie started for the first time.  He caught on so quickly!  I was amazed, probably because I have zero hand eye coordination!

And Brilee Grace got in on the action too!  She is a defensive all-star, but isn't quite sure she likes when the ball is passed to her on offense!

But it was Brilee's first time having her dad coach her so she loved that!!
