Spring Break

This  year we did something very different for Spring Break and we went to where it was colder!  We decided (somewhat last minute) that we wanted to do a ski trip so we went to New Mexico and skiied at a place called Sipapu.  On our way there we stopped at Palo Duro Canyon where we did some sight seeing and a trail ride.  That was a lot of fun.  And then we were off to the mountains of New Mexico.  Spring weather was setting in but we were still able to find a place to do some fun tubing and then went skiing the next couple of days.  Skiing was new to all of the kids so everyone did some lessons and then just picked it up no problem.  I think everyone loved it.  It was a bit of a car drive to get there but as it turned out some of the kids thought that was the highlight since we listened to the Harry Potter audiobook.  Brielle just kept asking if we could get back in the car to drive ;)  All in all it was a great trip and fun new type of adventure for us.

Feildtrip

I had the exciting pleasure of being a chaperone on Emmitts recent trip to the Perot Museum.  My group was just Emmitt and his friends Max and Gage.  We also hung out with his friend Taeya.  They were a busy bunch.  We had a good time.

Daddy Daughter Dance

Brielle and dad had a fantastic time at the daddy daughter dance this year!

State Champs

What amazing day for Brayden and the Varsity boys Prosper wrestling team who just won the State Duals tonight in El Paso!!! I’m so proud of Brayden and his team and incredible coaches for all their hard work. Go Eagles!!  Kevin went down to cheer them on and it was an intense fight to pull off an incredible win.  This will be a memory to treasure.

Ice Skating

The kids always like to go ice skating at least once over Christmas break.  This time we were joined by Grandma and Grandpa, most of the Grigors and a couple of Braydens friends (Nolan, who was visiting from CA and Isaac).

Christmas 2017

We had a fabulous Christmas season.  We spent Christmas eve with the Petersons- playing some super fun minute to win it games.  Then we had a nice Christmas at home.  This year the Christmas eve P.J's were matching so that was super fun.  They were also paired with new life jackets so they are all ready for boating season.

And here are the gingerbread houses we made this year.  Kevins is the can of ginger ale under the bread.  (isnt he funny)

Cool Wrestling pics

Right now Braydens life is consumed by wrestling and hes having a very succesful season.  We are really proud of him.  He works really hard and it takes tremendous discipline- particularly in maintaining a steady low weight.  He made varsity and has been pretty awesome.  Here's some great pics from a recent Dual.
