bowling birthday party.

for lane's birthday he requested bowling with some buddies at bass pro shop in colorado springs.   perfect!  so easy & so fun.   

whenever it was logan's turn, all the boys rushed up beside her to help ;)

 prior to going the boys decorated disposable cups for all of them.  (i knew they didn't have lids on any cups & between 7 kids there was bound to be spills.   this worked perfectly!)

 they all said, "this is the best cheese pizza EVER!"

 and for dessert lane said he wanted, "jesus cake"  hmmm..."you mean, angel food cake?"  yep!  so we brought angel food cake, strawberries, & whip cream.   they loved the spray whip cream part.

 the boys really wanted it to be a boys only trip but sorry, they are your sisters...they are coming.  :)

 cannot believe he is SEVEN!

 i don't think they had any fun ;)

easter 2015.

 *there are more super cute pictures of the kids but logan didn't have a shirt on & I'm super weird about posting.  should i make our blog private?

a february snow.

things i don't want to forget...

the boys stayed outside playing for 3 hours many days in a row

allie staying cozy attached to me at 3 weeks old

not having a snow suit for logan & so she wore many many layers & was still soaked to the core & didn't mind at all

there probably would have been more snow but the kids ate so much
