Last Game for the Pink Strikers

Well, we closed out the Winter season with our Pink Strikers team. They had an amazing fall and winter together and were unstoppable! It will likely be the only time Turner is on an undefeated team in her life. (Which will make "losing" a new and interesting teachable moment this spring!) :)

Fun times!

Turner and Gabby

The Girls and Coach Leo (Thomas was out of town for this one!)

Oma!

We had a VERY special surprise visit from one of our GA neighbors the other week. Oma was driving from GA to WA and was so sweet to take the time to bring books and treats to Turner and Parker...and some "soul" food for me! What a blessed treat!

Cute Little Buddy

Below are the school photos I didn't buy, but couldn't bear to not ever see again, because...well, he's just so doggone cute!!! So, I snuck pictures of the pictures! :) The ones I bought are precious, too, so stay tuned! :)

Sunny Beach, Or Snowy Mountains???

The thing that is pretty unbelievable about Southern California, is that you can be in 80 degrees at the beach...and then drive two hours and sled in the snowy mountains! It's wild! And wonderful!

Turner had a day off school, so we all packed up last Friday morning and headed to Big Bear Lake for our inaugural snow tubing experience. It was so much fun! The kids loved it, and so did the BIG kids. Our family favorite was going down the mountain "superman style" holding hands.

Oh, and it didn't hurt that there was a "moving sidewalk" to get you back UP the mountain! :)

Art Class

At the sweet encouragement of Turner's kindergarten teacher, we recently enrolled her in some art lessons. There is a neat studio right down the street from us, and we can ride scooters there.

Turner has LOVED it. After her first class, she said it was the "best day of her life." It's fun to see her enjoy her gifts this way and learn more about different art techniques and mediums.
