FC Dallas Game

For his birthday this year, Uncle Matt gifted Drew three tickets to the FC Dallas game! The plan was for both Derek and I to take him with a backup of Derek taking him and a friend. Luckily, Gramma and Poppa were able to watch the little ones while we went! It was super chilly but such a fun experience seeing the pros play and how amazing they are. 

 

Drew's First Solo Golf Tournament

Up until now Drew had been playing match play with his Junior PGA team but this spring we're entering some PGA Prep Tour tournaments where he plays 9 holes. We dropped the littles off at Gramma and Poppa's house a couple weeks ago for his first one which he did great! Derek registered as an official caddy and I got to drive a golf cart as a spectator to watch him play. It was freezing but he took first place out of the 11 year olds in his category and placed not too far behind the 12 year olds. He's been working hard with a coach at Jeff Isler golf academy and we're excited to see how that pays off this spring!

William // 4 Years Old

Can't believe my little piglet is already 4! We have discussed SO much over the past few weeks about how you've turned a corner and are such a little happy guy now. It was a rough time from about 3 until about 3 and 2/3 but now you are SO easy. Your little personality is coming through and you have opinions and requests and it's the cutest. You do quiet time SO well and play SO nicely and started your first organized sport this spring; t-ball! Love you so much little buddy. Happy Birthday!!

Legos

I love how both of my boys LOVE legos. It's adorable to watch Will watch Drew and admire his building skills. And Will has gotten quite good himself too!

Also napped this picture of my girls beautiful eyes...

 

Nexstar Dance Competition

Ady had her first dance competition on the company dance team and it was AMAZING! She was all smiles, danced her heart out (professional pictures below) and one of their dances took home first out of 8 and their other took home second! We are so proud of how she did and seeing all her heard work pay off. 

Dance moms...

Ady got to accept the award for the team!!!

She earned Sonic on the way home with her friend and the trophy!

 

Elementary School GALA

Our elementary school had a GALA that we got to dress up for and it was a blast! I rented a dress from Rent the Runway and we danced and ate the night away with our friends. 

 

Legoland

I'm soaking up these last few 'mommy day's as next year Will will go from 3 days a week to 5 for pre-k. A couple weeks ago we ventured to Leogland with our little buddy and had a blast building and riding and see all the things! I adore watching his mind race and his little personality show up!

 

Ady's Dance Showcase

For Ady's last dress rehearsal before competition season she got to showcase her dances to family! Gramma and Poppa were able to join and I was so excited to see her in full costume and makeup. :)

 

Cowtown Half Marathon

Derek's been itching to run another half marathon again so he signed up for the infamous Cowtown race. He trained for a few weeks and although it was FREEZING cold he did amazing! If it wasn't for one tough hill that went straight up he might have made a PR but he's super pleased with how he did despite the weather being in the mid 20's when the race began and ending only in the low 30's.
