Indoor Soccer Season

Indoor soccer season started the first Saturday in February.  Grace and Jack are both playing.  This is their first year playing indoors and they love it!  Grace and Jack have games every Saturday.  Jack's team is called the Broncos (he is pictured above in orange) and Grace's team is the Rays (the team with the pink shirts).  Eve is their biggest fan and she loves attending all of the games.  Here are a few pictures from the first three games...

 

My Little Valentines!

Valentine's Day Tea!

My children love to drink tea!  This year for Valentine's Day we made heart tags on tea bags to give out as gifts and also to enjoy on Valentine's Day morning.  To make these tea bags I choose red paintings that Grace, Jack and Eve painted together for Valentine's Day.  I cut out tiny heart shapes from their paintings and replaced the original tea bag tags with their painted hearts.  We chose raspberry tea so that the tea would be pink!  Here are some pictures of Grace, Jack and Eve enjoying a cup of their Valentine's Day tea this morning...

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day from my three little loves!  Grace has a snow day today so we spent most of our morning playing outside!  Wishing everyone a happy day filled with lots of love.

Grace's 100th Day of First Grade!

Today is Grace's 100th day of school!  Grace couldn't wait to go to school this morning (she had to wait a little longer to get there due to a delayed opening because of the snow!).  To celebrate her 100th day of first grade Grace and I made this heart shirt together.  Grace chose 10 colors of felt and together we cut out 10 hearts of each color for a total of 100 in all...one heart for each day that she has been in first grade.  We used permanent fabric glue to glue the hearts onto her shirt.

Happy 100th day of school my Gracie girl!

Date Night with Jack!

While Bob and the girls were at the Daddy Daughter Dance last night I went on a date (!) with a very charming and handsome little man. My date opened all of the doors open for me, held my hand and as we were waiting for our food to arrive he even let me win at tic tac toe. My date also wore his best fireman hat just for me! At the end of the night Jack said, "Mama, was I a gentleman? I was trying really hard to be the best gentleman I could for you." What a little charmer this sweet boy of mine is!  Here are a few pictures from our date night together...

Daddy & His Girls!

Snow Day!

Groundhog Day 2014 - An Early Spring!

Every year we make groundhogs on Groundhog Day and go outside to see whether we will have an early spring or six more weeks of winter.  Although Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning our little Scarborough groundhog family did not....that means an early spring for all of us here in Scarborough, Maine.  Hooray!!!

No shadows!

Happy Groundhog Day from our little groundhogs to yours.

To see our groundhogs through the years click on the dates.....2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013.

Scarborough Ice Hockey!

Grace, Jack and Eve had a great time last evening watching their very first Scarborough High School ice hockey game!
