A Broken Ankle and PB&J

March 2013

Alexis had hurt her ankle at track and the swelling hadn't gone down.  So 3 weeks after her initial injury, after running track and playing soccer on it for that whole time, we finally took Alexis to the doctor.  There was a hairline fracture on her ankle and she had to sit out of all sports for 4 more weeks.
That was pretty hard on her, which turned into being pretty hard on us.


To make matters worse, Alexis had made a bet with Bo that she could go 3 weeks eating only PB&J sandwiches. I don't think she minded it, but was glad when it was over.  The craziest part was that she only got $20!


Spring Fest

Saturday, March 22, 2013

We started off our Spring Break with a sleepover with the Allens.  The next morning we met up with the rest of their family at the Boulevard Mall for a little Spring Fest they were having.


There were crafts and games.  The girls pretty much just hula hooped the whole time we were there. They got Jeannie and I to go out and do a silly dance so they could win prizes too.


The boys had their faces painted. They made cute bunnies. I love this picture of Seth and Cayson.


After leaving the mall we met up with Dave and Alexis at the movies to see Oz.  It was pretty good and  it was nice to find a movie that we all wanted to see.

A Busy Weekend with Cousins

Saturday, March 16, 2013

Lee received a promotion and he and his family were off to their new home in CA. Lee and the kids spent a few days between homes here in Vegas.  Ryan had gotten tickets to see a pro ball game - the Cubs vs the Rangers.  He couldn't go, but gave the tickets to Dad, Dave, Lee, and the boys.  

After the game, we celebrated Mason's 7th birthday at CiCi's. Seth loves the Mac & Cheese pizza.

Seth also really loves St. Patrick's Day.  He made a leprechaun trap and had me make green food. 




That night, when we were watching Amazing Race with the extended family, Jolynn texted us this pic.  We will be getting another cousin (a boy!) this fall.

Dave watched Lee's kids while he went to the temple with the folks.  Spaghetti might have been a messy mistake for dinner,  but made for a great picture of Addison.


The cousins left for their new home the next day but we enjoyed the time we had with them here.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

Saturday, March 16, 2013

Ever since her friend, Avery, was diagnosed with a brain tumor, Camryn has been thinking about donating her hair.  She was finally ready to let go of her long locks.  The guy who cut her hair was meticulous and took almost an hour, giving her a little bit of layering at the bottom.  


We sent her hair into Pantene's Beautiful Locks Program.


Her new do is very cute but makes her look a little older,

Under the Sea

Camryn's Hollywood Kids class has been preparing for their Little Mermaid show for 6 months.  When Camryn auditioned she was given the role of Ariel's best fish friend, Flounder.  She did a great job and had a solo, "She's In Love". 



I made a cake for the cast party after the show.  I even made a little Flounder at the bottom of the cake.
