NIce While It Lasted

We knew it was coming and now we have it - more snow! So we took advantage yesterday and played a little ball out on the drive way and rode our bike to Petland (just looking).

Jacob and I played Around the World (took me 5 tries to get out of the first spot!). Then a little tennis. Hopefully the snow won't last long and we'll be out here again soon!

Spring Break

Well it was Laura's spring break, but we took off school anyway! Here's some pictures of all the fun stuff we did:

 

We had a great week with the kids. Thanks for coming home Laura! We packed a lot in one week. We saw everybody and did just about everything you can in March inside and out! Laura flew into Minneapolis to spend a couple of days with her friend Lindsey who drove her to our house and stayed a few days with us. We cooked a little and ate a lot while they were here...we were always running out of cookies-Blake's favorite. The kids went shopping, we went to the bakery too. We spent time with the Smiths/Plocks and Cupps. We had a friendly competition of biking, running, basketball and swimming, Blake won. Laura got to see G'ma Nemec and G'pa and G'ma Struve and her cousins. The little girls were all taking their blood sugar with G'ma's equipment. They were all normal-even after pie. They said it didn't even hurt to prick their fingers! They all had to wrestle on the living room floor, a fun way to spend G&G's 60th anniversary. Blake left for Florida toward the end of the week, but we had him most of the time. We even found time to put the bottom set of braces on Jacob, with green bands for St. Patty's day. We all slept good at night! It was a fun week, hopefully we'll feel normal soon!
