Winter so far

Winter has been good. It started off great with our trip to Colorado and then it was kind of a let down when it was over and we were back in the grind of things...especially after the holidays. We have been managing to stay busy with the kids. Lucas is still in off-season baseball training (indoors of course) and he can't wait for spring/summer ball to start. Addison just started indoor soccer with her team and she is about to wrap up a great season of basketball. She has only gotten one basket all season...but she loves playing and keeps improving !

 

Here she is in action at one of her games.

 

 

We have hardly gotten any snow this winter...but the kids took advantage of it when we did get a little.

 

We took my Dad out for his 70th birthday a few weeks ago. We went on a craft beer pub crawl and had a great night!!!

 

 

This past weekend Bob took Addison to her 5th Kellison sweetheart dance. It is hard to believe that next year will be their last dance. They had a wonderful time and I must say....Addison looked so pretty and so grown up.

 

Earlier this winter I was on a mission. As if painting all the doors, base boards, and frames wasn't enough....I painted the entry way, hallways, stairway and dining room

 

Here is a before picture. I don't know how I lived with these walls for 7 years...the multi color/sponge paint or whatever you want to call it.

 

After pic...much cleaner and fresh if you ask me.

 

I don't have a before pic of the dining room but you can imagine dark greens walls (lighter on top and darker on the bottom). It was ok...but I never loved the room. The light blue looks much better and matches the walls in the den right next to this room.

 

That's all for now.

We are getting anxious for spring break and spring weather. Our family is not meant to be cooped up and we can't wait to get outside!!!!
