No camera

Baron went to the Blues game last week. They won! Baron also got to go on the ice and shoot two shots and was given a puck

He has such good luck! Earlier in the week he went to a college basketball game and they picked him to do a game. He was on the jumbotron and when he answered correct he got cupcakes for him and his row.

Basketball

This is pretty cool.  Baron being introduced with his team

Baron is playing basketball.  He is having such a great time.  Their program is so top notch and the coaches are amazing.  Baron is on a 1st and 2nd grade team so he still has a ways to go in the skill level.  We also just signed him up for Flag football.  That starts in March and baseball starts in April.

More Christmas


I still haven't got pictures off of Nolan's Camera.  But, this is what I had on mine.  The kids had a nice Christmas.  Santa seemed to bring them a lot of stuff!

I am still here

I can't believe it's been a month since I updated. We had a great holiday season. It was perfect to have the kids home more. We got to see family and took a mini trip to Kansas City. I haven't been great about photos. And I have some on my camera and Nolan's.

On other news Nolan is leaving his job ( at the end of the month) and he excepted a job with Missouri S&T. It's part of the University of Missouri system. He was not looking and a recruiter contacted him. It's a great opportunity. Bittersweet since we have such attachment to Semo. His work is very sad to see him go. We aren't moving. He will work from home about 3 weeks a month and the other week he will be out of state traveling.

Christmas tree

We are so behind on everything. Next year I really need to say no more. Ever since school started I have felt behind and not enough time for the truly important things.

Every year we go and cut down the perfect tree. Well this year... We were out of town over Thanksgiving ( when we normally go),then I was in Memphis the next weekend.

So we were going to go the next weekend. Nolan had to go to Chicago ( for work) on Sunday. So it left us Saturday to go. We had gymnastics and we just ran out of time

So we went to Ted Drewes( yes the famous custard place). It's pretty famous in St. Louis and in the winter the sell custard and have a tree lot. The kids had so much fun!! But, the trees big enough for our room were 200 dollars! No way I would pay that. So we got a much smaller tree. It's really pretty and I like it. It's just too small. Last year we had 12 feet. This is like 6 feet. Oh well next year we will be back to cutting our own down

St. Jude Half Marathon

Over the weekend I went to Memphis for the St Jude race with a few friends. We were gone for a full two days. And it was amazing! Lots of relaxing time. In typical tired mom fashion we were in our room by 7 every night and up before 6am. Wow we are a wild bunch!

Everything was great. Company, car ride, hotel, meals, and the race was my favorite ever.





The race finished in the Memphis cardinals stadium. The stands were packed. We got to run on the warning track and finish on the field... Pretty cool
