Tyler is playing soccer this spring with two of his good friends, Devon and Michael. This was at the first soccer game of the season.
Then, that evening, we went mini-golfing with the Jabergs. Eli and Aubrey are just too cute together.

Kansas City for Spring Break
During Spring Break, we decided we needed a little getaway. So, March 20-21, we took an overnight trip to Kansas City.
First, a stop for Wayne at Dynamic Discs in Emporia.
Then lunch at Oklahoma Joe's. So good!
Then, on to Legoland!
After dinner at a local Mexican restaurant and a stop at Trader Joe's, we were worn out. But, of course the kids knew there was a pool, so they had a little swim before bed.
The next morning, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast at First Watch, then on to Sea Life aquarium.
And, finally, on to the Art Museum.
Tyler showing his Lego version of the Art Museum (he created the day before at Legoland) in front of the real thing.
We didn't spend as much time in the art museum as we could have. We had packed a lot in and were getting tired, so we hit the road and headed home.
The next morning, I got this picture of Tyler...:)

Snow!
We FINALLY got some snow. Even though I keep seeing pictures of folks back home who are buried in snow, it's been pretty dry around here.
So, we enjoyed getting some of the white stuff today. It's been snowing all day...7 inches and counting.
We enjoyed a snow day today. We slept in, leisurely ate a yummy breakfast, and watched a movie.
Then it was time to get outside! I walked to the store to get a little exercise and return the movie...and while I was there, found out that we get another day off school tomorrow! :)
No pics of Tyler. He and I pretty much just threw snowballs at each other so the phone was safely put away when he was around. :)
I got a turn getting swung in circles by Wayne.
The munchkin on one of her turns. I think she looks like a smooshed marshmallow in her puffy clothes.
This afternoon, I tried a couple of new recipes. This pretzel roll recipe to go with this pulled pork. The rolls are sooo good, AND they were easy. :) The pulled pork is delicious. I'd say it was easy too...except the pulling part. ;)

August Forest
Excuse the lighting...and the iOS video, but I want to remember Aubrey's version of Welcome Christmas from How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
And Jingle Bells too...
Happy Birthday, Aubrey!
Little lady is 4!
We made unicorn cookies for her to share with her preschool friends.
The morning of her birthday, she woke up and was so thrilled that it was FINALLY her birthday that she jumped out of bed at 6 am. We went to Lamar's where she picked out a big chocolate donut with Bavarian creme filling. Then a trip to the store to get birthday plates and candles for our party.
Birthday morning smiles.
Yesterday, we celebrated with Eli and the twins, then with Ted and Sue. This is her requested cake - pink with rainbows, glitter and a unicorn. (Oh, and the candles she picked out too).
Birthday card from Aunt Lynette...yes, she LOVES mermaids. She is thrilled to have some new mermaid toys to play with and clothes to wear.
She enjoyed playing with Eli and the twins.
Some party food...the aftermath.
Even mermaid hair!
Aubrey's interview this afternoon:
What is your mother's name? "Mama"
What does your mother do all day? "She is loving me and do everything and be mad at me."
What is your dad's name? "Dada."
What does your dad do all day? "Being mad at Tyler and me."
(What is this about us being mad!?!)
What is your brother's name? "Tyler"
What is your favorite color? "Pink and purple."
What is your favorite show? "Spongebob"
What is your favorite song? "Rockabye Baby, I love you Mom and Dad, Thank You for everything you do"

What food don't you like? "balloons, basketballs, Mommy's glasses"
No, what real food don't you like? "stinky food, banana peels" :)
OK...moving on.
I don't want to forget that she says "suss" instead of "just."
She gives lots of spontaneous tight hugs and says I love You.
There is a song for everything, and probably a dance too.
She still wants a "real" dog or cat and pretends to be both of these sometimes.
She is particular about what she wants to wear down to the underwear.
She knows that Daddy and Mommy don't like certain things, or don't let her do certain things and tries to sneak and ask the other...quietly..."I have a secret Mommy,...can I have chocolate milk for breakfast?"
