Monroe is obsessed with the movie CARS. As many of you know, Life is a Highway was remade by Rascal Flatts for this movie. Consequently, this is Monroe's favorite song. Brandon was able to catch him on video "singing" out on our deck.

Cole had his first baseball game of the season last Saturday. We were very impressed with how competative the game was! Cole hit the ball on the first pitch every time and scored twice. We are looking forward to watching him this year! Brandon is also helping as his assistant coach again this year.

Hallie is saying so much now and will repeat pretty much anything you say.
Instead of just saying "yes" when we ask her a question, she says, "Uh, yeah, uh, uh, mmm." I'm not sure where she came up with that but it's pretty funny to hear!

I love having a little girl that can wear pretty dresses!

My mom got a new shirt for Hallie.

Spring Concert

Cole's spring concert was focused on praise and worship. It was so neat to see all those young kids lifting their hands and praising God!

Grand Prix

Coleman was in a pine box derby through his church group. This was the first year he was old enough to participate. He designed his car and helped with the construction including sanding and painting! He ended up winning 1st place for the third grade boys and out of all the boys he got 2nd place. Not bad for his first year!!! He had so much fun!

We went to Chicago to Shedd Aquarium and the Rainforest Cafe to celebrate Brandon's promotion! Hallie got slippers at the Rainforest Cafe.

Cole got a haircut! He was growing it out long and one day, decided he wanted it short!

My sister turned 30 this year so my mom and sisters-in-law threw a dinner party. We had a blast!

Cole was in basketball this winter. He did a great job and had lots of fun. They won most of their games!

Cole got to be Brair Rabbit in his class play.

Christmas Break

We decided to take advantage of the long Christmas break and go to the Science Museum in St. Louis. The kids had a blast! They loved playing in the jacuzzi tub and eating at a Hard Rock Cafe.
