February 2018

We were SO thankful that Marshma and Papa only spent two weeks in Florida this winter.


While Creed spent a few days in skiing in Whistler, these two camped out in my room. Little was pumped to be sleeping on Daddy's side of the bed!

While Caleb preferred an air mattress on the floor. :)

Pretty cool skiing by the Olympic rings!


Creed, Jon, and Brian 


Caleb played the piano during the offering at one of his school's chapel services.

The same chapel service he played The Good Samaritan in his class's program.



Go carting at Malibu Jacks.


The week of Luke's birthday, and just three days before his party, he started running a fever. Because three of his classmates had the flu that week, we were super nervous. Thankfully, it was strep so he was up and running and two doses of the antibiotic. 

On the 25th, Luke had his 7th birthday and we celebrated at House of Boom!

Grandma Beth and PeePaw surprised Luke with a weekend visit and she was sweet enough to tackle my Peeps into Pikachu project!

Luke has most of his classmates, along with some cousins and a few neighborhood friends. It was a great party!

With Jake and Tey


All he wanted that night was to sleep with Hallie. (I spent the next day lint rolling his comforter.) 
Happy Birthday, sweet boy!
Even though you are SEVEN, you are still our Lukey Baby.

January 2018

In January we found the perfect lake house for us.. 
However, we decided that calling it a "lake house" is a little misleading...it's our "little cabin near the lake." ;) With two bedrooms and a loft for the boys, it's perfect for us. And, it's less than ten minutes from Jamestown Marina at Lake Cumberland! 
The view from the back deck:

Let it snow!
January 12th was our first official snow day!





Creed and I spent an evening out in downtown and stayed at 21c, which we loved!

January 16th and 17th were our 2nd (and 3rd) snow days.



How I feel about cleaning up all the snow gear...

Both boys played Upward basketball this winter and loved it. Uncle Luke coached Luke's team, which was extra great!

Twas the Week After Christmas

The day after Christmas was spent building all kids of things  (fromm Lego sets to suspension bridges!) and (not so) patiently waiting on PeePaw and Grandma Beth to get to town.




I LOVE Caleb's expression as he opens his laptop...





It isn't a proper PeePaw visit unless lunch at White Castle is involved!

More Lego building...

I was at home alone and couldn't find Hallie...



Christmas at Marshma and Papa's

and more building...

Our Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year..."The best Christmas ever," the boys say! Thankfully Caleb was back to normal and ready to celebrate Christmas Eve.
 

The crazy Hume cousins made their hand print Christmas tree shirts to wear to our big extended family celebration.


Christmas Morning

Luke was beyond thrilled to find that Santa brought him a dirt bike!

And Caleb could not have been more excited to finally get his XBox One.









Christmas was a low key, relaxing day at home. That evening we went to Grandma Kathy's to celebrate.
