Waking Tyler Up


Yep, this is how Mommy found them (except Tyler was laying down).  Kara heard Ty talking on the monitor and decided she needed to go upstairs. Maddie was still asleep, but heard Kara, so she decided to join in the fun.  They were reading Tyler books and talking to him.  Of course Ty was all smiles.

Kindergarten Homework


This is the monthly homework that Kara gets to do along with practicing her word wall words, writing sentences and reading.  Kindergarten is a lot of work, but fun.

Bath Time!


Yep, as of right now, all three kids get a bath at the same time.  They all LOVE bath time.  Mommy also loves it because there is usually no fighting.

Broncos Win! Kara's 1st NFL football game.

(iPhone Picture)

Wow!  What a great game for Kara to experience for her 1st NFL football game.  The Broncos win the wild card playoff game in overtime against the Pittsburgh Steelers (29-23).  Daddy said that the place was going crazy and Kara was screaming, dancing and cheering the entire game.  Sounds like Kara is going to be hooked on Broncos football!

So I couldn't just pick one picture today...so you get three :)

Kara shooting a gun for the 1st time.

(iPhone Picture, don't worry gun is NOT loaded for this picture)

While in Colorado, Daddy and Grandpa Holm took Kara to a shooting range.  Daddy helped Kara shoot a gun for the 1st time.  She had fun shooting at old pop can and making them explode.  Kara loves doing anything her Daddy likes to do.

Maddie playing on the swing set.


 Why this picture?  Just because Maddie is just too cute.  Look at those dimples, what's not to love? Maddie also picked her clothes today.  Good thing we live in Houston where it is not unheard of to wear summer clothes in January.

Tyler swinging for the 1st time.


Ty enjoyed swinging.  He is just so content and easy going.  He really loves it when his sisters push him and talk to him.  He is always giving them the biggest smiles.

Kara on Airplane to Denver

(iPhone picture)
Today Kara got a big surprise!  Daddy picked her up from school and they headed to the airport for a long weekend in Colorado.  Kara was all smiles and could not contain her excitement.  She could not figure out why she was being called to go to the front office at school.  Daddy said she had a confused look on her face.  As soon as they got into the car, Kara had to call Mommy and ask "Why did we trick her?"  Daddy and Kara had a great time visiting Grandpa Holm and going to the Denver Bronco football game.

Finally....joining the blogging world

Yep, I have made the leap into the blogging world.  Why?  Primarliy because I want to try to capture moments and events to share with family and friends across the country.  I have not been successful with scrapbooking and I am hoping that I can turn my blogs into memory books each year for my kids.  I also have a goal of doing the One Frame a Day project this year.  I plan on using this blog to keep track of each picture and little memo about each one.  Let me warn you right now, my grammer is TERRIBLE!  I am not a good writer.  But I hope that the blogging experience will still be enjoyable and worthy of reading.
