Nate's Kindergarten check up appt.

It sucked.
2 shots in the left leg, 1 in the right, 1 in the arm, pee in a cup and blood drawn. Poor kid.

Go Speed Racer

In Feb the boys competed in the Pinecar Derby at Flipside. Nate's special car building buddy was his Papa Roy.Zach was super excited to make a car with his daddy!This is my only "race picture" :( I pretty much missed the whole thing while making the certificates - but we dont dwell on that.
The boys actually both won 2nd place in their division's race!Nate's car also "won" the Hot Rod AwardWhile Zachy "won" the So Hot It's Cool Award
It was a great time!

Zoo-mania

Since we got our passes to the LA Zoo we have gone a heck of alot (that's good) but after a few visits all my zoo photos have started looking the same. I didnt even bring my camera in the last few times cuz I feel like I have a zillion photos. So here's a small portion of that zillion. In Feb we went with my cuz Tim, his wife Jade and their son Zeke down from Colorado.With Joey & Ethan Caraway:
See that rock behind Zach, it's a chimp.
And with Meg (Meg's mom Traci is a professional photographer so I let her do ALL the picture taking that day!)They were pretending to be panda bears in these trees so Nate is pretending to eat the tree.

Happy Heart's Day

Nate's school Valentines and 1 for both boys:
I made those faux ties myself! They are just stitch wichery-ed together - love it!

"Our Grams is so SWEET"

We made this cute Valentine Decoration for Grams (my Grandma) with handprints of all of her 13 great-grandchildren!(you cant tell by the looks on their faces but) the boys were excited to take it to her.

and Zach was excited to catch a ride on Grams' walker!

What Nate made at school yesterday

Snowventures

After a particularly snowy week us, the Reynolds and my mom along with half the IE tried to go play in the snow. Sadly we were unable. First we tried Lytle Creek which has NO WHERE to stop and the main road closed. So then we decided to take the kids to climb the Mormon Rocks where we found a tiny bit of "snow" it was actually hail that hadn't melted. Seeing Wrightwood in the distance we decided to make a go for it only to find more road closures. So we went home.Determined to get my kids to the snow I decided to take them during the week by myself. Luckily my friend Becky let us crash her front yard which had ample amounts for sledding, snowball making and snowman building. Look! I was there too!Makin the "snowman" with Ryan (what's with the tongues?)Frozen noses:

Happy New Year!

Ok it's February already but I forgot I snapped a few pictures at the New Year's party at the Williams and they are funny so here they are. Cheers!
