Our February was filled with all kinds of fun! Mostly basketball!
We hosted a Superbowl dinner - we aren't big Superbowl watchers, but I love a good excuse to get family together!
I dreamed of Summer the whole month long with these new chapsticks! Peaches and Cream is my favorite! You can find one in every coat pocket, in my car, my purse and church bags!
There were SO many of these pictures that I sent to Josh to show him how miserable I was outside at recess.
We regularly woke up to this sight in February!
The students call me "The Pink Ninja" at recess. I was SO glad I bought this ski mask at Costco!
Thomas survived a Winter camp out! They made their own ice caves to sleep in! Brrr!
Here's some Basketball pics from our season! Bella did great this year - her height gave her an advantage for sure! She is a good rebounder and loves to shoot!
This game, she played her friend McClain's team. McClain and Bella look so much alike, and it has been fun to see them play each other since Kindergarten!
I coached Soph's team with Wendy Jensen, a neighbor friend. We had a great team, and had such a fun season! I had a few of these girls last season, and loved seeing how much they've improved! Soph is a fun player! She is enthusiastic about basketball and loved her team!
I read a book last year that I made our book club read - Beneath a Scarlet Sky. It is based on a true story of Pino Lella. He lived in Italy during WWII. It was such a moving story, and I loved discussing it with my friends!
We went to another BYU basketball game! We are so blessed to have Papa and Grandma share tickets with us!
I put Soph's hair up in a high pony one day, and couldn't keep thinking how much she looked like Kaley!
We babysat the Roach kiddos while their parents were on a cruise. We sure love those kids! It brings back memories of having littles! Between the 2 families, we have a dozen kids! So after school snacks are a funny affair!
Valentine's Day boxes!
Bella's science fair project went on to the district fair!
Thomas went around with the orchestra to recruit the 6th graders around here to join orchestra!
During date night we saw this sign... too funny!
We had a great Come Follow Me lesson in February (we are struggling through it, but trying to get the hang of it!) We talked about loving everyone, and wrote love notes to each person in our family and put them on our cabinets in the kitchen. I loved the hearts all month long!
Earthquake drill!
Thomas' city team took #1! What a good looking team!
Kaley's team took #1 too!!!
Winter was LOOOONNNGGG, so we put up some hammocks in the basement.
More basketball pics...
Jace did great this year! He does not have any height advantage, but loves the sport! He has good ball control and is quick!
More Kaley pics...
Thomas' Bantam team. T continues to love basketball and plays every minute he can! He plays 30 mins before school, during Pack Time, after he eats lunch, and then when he gets home. He literally eat, sleeps, breathes basketball!
Phew! We were ready for basketball to be done by the end of the month! With 6+ games a week (usually all on Saturday), and 6 practices each week, we were all balled out! I am grateful that the busiest season for us is basketball and it falls in the Winter! Winter is hard as it is, so having a place to be (the gym) all day on Saturdays makes me happy! We are there cheering each other on, Josh and I both coach, and the kids get all their energy out!
