Lunch

Ashley ask me today if she could make lunch for Kevin and I today. She is on track break and since none of the kids in the neighborhood are still in school she gets kind of bored during the day. I thought this was a great idea to keep her occupied. She made us salad and grilled cheese sandwiches. It was cute watching her prepare everything.

We also went to the eye doctor this morning and she found out that she needs glasses to see the board. Allison had her first pair out and Ashley thought she would try them out. She looks so cute.

St. Patricks Day

The girls have mentioned that they missed our special Valentines day so I decided to make St. Patrick's Day special. The girls came home to a treat on their pillows.

I also thought that it might be fun to try Corned Beef and Cabbage for dinner. The girls were not too excited when they saw it but they surprised me and ended up loving it.

I think we might have started some new traditions. It is fun making family memories.

Basketball is over

Allison and Ashley played in there last games today. Ashley's team worked hard and did a great job. She loved being on the team. McKinnlie her best friend was on the team. Josie a soccer teammate was on the team and then Mr Wickham her PE teacher was her coach. It was a great team with a lot of great people on it.

Allison played with most of the same girls that she has been playing with for the past two years. Her team finished in 4th place and then almost beat the number one undefeated team in the playoffs. They only lost by one point. It was a great end to the season. Allison isn't sure that she is going to play basketball anymore so this might be her last season. It will be sad to see her move on.

Unpacking

We have been in our house for a little over a month now. We have been unpacking a little each day and we are down to only two boxes left in the house.

It is nice to be down to these final two boxes in the house. I am not sure when we will get around to these last two boxes because they mostly consist of decorations that I am not sure where I want yet. Decorating is going to be a slow process.

Opps

Madison had her first wreck in the car. She was going to get gas and another car got too close to her so she turned a little too tight and scraped the car against a stop sign.

I am glad that she is ok and the damage wasn't more.

Trampoline

The girls got a trampoline for Christmas. We have been waiting for the landscaping to be finished so that we could get it delivered and installed. The landscapers finished the back yard landscaping yesterday so Kevin had the trampoline delivered today. Ashley has been so excited and could not wait to get home from school so she could go jump on it. She ran in the house and straight to the backyard.

We could hardly get her off of it tonight so I think she is happy with her Christmas present.

Here is how our back yard turned out.

I love how it all turned out and I love that we did not have the stress of planning it out and doing it.

Landscaping

The landscapers have been working on our yard all week. They will come and finish the backyard on Monday. It is so nice to have grass. Macie might appreciate it the most because she doesn't have to go out on a walk to have to use restroom. Now we just need to finish up the fence. I love the design that the landscaper did in our yard. We got everything that we wanted. I can't wait for them to finish the back yard on Monday.

I am happy to finally have it done. Our house now feels complete.
