Within minutes...

The children were in full *swing*  after arriving at Gannie and Papa's.

It is going to be a fun visit!

Baking with Eloise

After a fun night with cousins, Eloise and  I spontaneously decided to make Amy Lauren's homemade oatmeal
cream pies.  

A *little* photo shoot

I couldn't resist snapping a few photos before Sophie's party.

Oliver plays soccer

Oliver had his first soccer practice two weeks ago.

  He is so excited to play!!

His coach gave out uniforms during practice. 

 Of course, he put it on immediately and slept in it too!

Happy Valentines Day

Sara-Cooper had a great *date* with her Dad at the American Heritage Girls banquet.

Our bright spot

It is nice to have a "baby of the family".  Even when my older children can not seem to get along, they are always so sweet with Eloise.  When we are all having "one of those days" ,  she provides a much needed bright spot.
