SUPERMOON

Tonight was the SUPERMOON! The time when the moon is the closest to us. I was pretty excited to see it, I love to see the moon, especially when it's full. I've been learning some things in my photography class and was excited to try to see if I could get a good, clear picture. I think I got a pretty good one. My favorite part is when I really zoom in there is so much detail there! I am loving this!!!

Field Trip time

One the things we love about Timothy's pre-school is the field trips. Throughout the year they go on lots of field trips to really cool places. For Spring/Mother's Day they went to the local Nursery to learn about trees,plants and flowers. After the tour they got to plant their own flower which they then gave to their mom's! This was such a fun trip and Timothy just LOVED playing in the dirt. Especially with his best bud Caleb.

Here fishy fishy

We love to fish- well the boys and Siera do- but we all love to go and enjoy nature. Recently a community pond opened up here so it was a 10 minute drive to get to this little pond. Josh got to work helping Tommy bait his hook (with his very own fly that he tied) so he could fulfill some scouting requirements! Anyways, Poor Josh had to help everyone else get their stuff ready he couldn't really fish himself, but we had a good time anyways. There were some rather large fish that were being caught- unfortunately not by us:( It was fun for the little ones to run around and get dirty, for Josh and Tommy to enjoy fishing and Savana and I had fun playing with the camera. She says she wants to be a photographer when she grows up! I was playing around with the lighting and ended up with some really cool silhouette pics of Savana doing cartwheels! LOVE IT! I just love these fun times we have as a family.

Go TURTLES!!

I absolutely LOVE to watch my kids doing what they love. Even though soccer is well into the season, today was the first REAL spring soccer- with frigid temperatures and brisk winds I was chilled to the bone. My hands were frozen and my ears were cold, but something like that wouldn't stop Timothy from getting out there to play. This season he is on such a great team- coach Z is awesome and we are hoping to stick with him through the years. Timothy has really broken out of his shell and just loves to get out and get the ball. He scored twice today and the team was was victorious with a 17-6 score! The turtles are undefeated so far! I'm glad I got some good pictures of how this kid plays- he is so naturally talented! It's a good thing that he and his brother are so good at this stuff and they can help each other. Even though it was COLD outside, he had lots and lots and lots and lots of fun!
