Ava's Basketball Debut

Our little Ava went to her first basketball camp last week.  (I got the inside scoop from the gym teacher at my school and although it was a Beaver Dam camp, she was "ok'd to come!) She was the smallest one there but definitely showed improvement by the end of the day.  She goes back next two Sunday afternoons and then will be performing at half time of a HS Girls BBall game. 

Too Cute Not to Share!

Dana and Lucas just posted a few of the professional pictures from their July wedding.  This one was just too cute not to share!  

 

Kyle's 15 Minutes of Fame!

Our Super Star!!!  Kyle was asked to go to a Badger Basketball game with his good friend Luke.  Little did he know that he would be picked to play one of the shooting games during a tv time out!  AND HE WON!!!  This will give him bragging rights for at least 20 years! 

Ava's Kindergarten Christmas Concert

Due to the blizzard that hit Wisconsin right before Christmas, Ava's Kindergarten Christmas Concert had to be postponed.  I ran out at lunch to catch a performance, but I didn't have the best view.  Thankfully a mom of one of Ava's friends shared her great shots!  Ava stole the show of course.

Happy New Year 2013!

Wow!  What a night.  It was a wonderful FAMILY night!  Ava kept saying, "This is the best night EVER!"  First we started with our New Year's Eve tradition of fondue!  The kids had such a great time!  Then we moved to family game night.  We played Candy Land (Ava Won), Hi-Ho Cheerio! (Ava Won), The Very Hungry Caterpillar Game (Ava Won) and Sequence for Kids (Mom Won) ** It should be noted that Ryan came in second place in 3/4 of the games (and no... we didn't let them win!!)  Later we had ice cream sundaes and root beer floats.  Then we had a balloon drop and toast (with sparkling grape juice) at 9pm!  What an AWESOME night!
