Remember the 10 run

These are just snapshots of what we did through March & early April and the fun we had.  Life, like always, was busy but Philip had transitioned into a job where he now had a tax season in the spring months instead of being busy with audit at the first of the year & then with the pregnancy it made spring seem like a flash in the pan when I look back.

That's life though & I am so very grateful for the activity & happiness & good people that God has surrounded us with that makes this short time we have here on Earth a pleasant experience.

Winter 2016

Winter 2016...our status was tax season for Philip, I was pregnant and working full time, and the kids were active and healthy so basically winter just got away from us in one big blur.  

Therefore regarding this post the attention to detail will once again be left to the pictures because, well, 5-6 months later is where we are now... but you can rest assured we had some good times...

Hair cut for Denver ....

as long as he has a sucker he does fine....

End result - pure cuteness

We visited Sayre...it was a little chilly but the kids still got to "help" some

There was a shoot out while we were there too...

February also brings Dancing with Daddy which is really a highlight moment each year for Annie

Valentine's involved treats for everyone

We then headed into March

where we had some fun evenings on our patio because it was such a mild winter...

The kids and I took at day during spring break and went to the science museum

And before we knew it we had turned around and winter was saying farewell and spring was March-ing in.

 

December fun

Since it is 6 months later & I am just getting to posting this there will be little detail - I'll just let the pictures do the talking but I think they will show we enjoyed our winter & holiday season...

Lighting up campus

Denver obviously was not a fan of OSU Santa

Ice skating - contrary to what the teenager behind the counter said if you can walk you can't necessarily ice skate....

Annie did well this year

Polar Express

Then the big day....

It was a fun Christmas with family & friends & the kids were great ages.

New Year's Eve we ate sushi & were in bed as the new year came in.  

2015 was a wild year, we bought a house, Philip changed jobs, and we found out God had bigger plans than we had for ourselves as we learned we'd be adding to our family.  It was stressful & exciting but a great year overall.
