Girls

Everybody is doing great here. The weather has been really warm here. We are counting down the days until Sydney is on summer vacation she can not wait because the pool will be open here. Sydney is doing great with T-ball. She hit the ball on Saturday without the T and stop the ball twice in the outfield.

Brooke is all over the place here and got another tooth. Here are a couple of pictures and two video's.

Sydney had a bird feeder in school and we hung
it in our tree for the birds.

Easter, 2009

Hi Everybody,

I hope that everybody had a great Easter. We had a really nice Easter here. Shawn's dad and mom Smith came down for Easter it was a really nice weekend. The weather was beautiful here to for them. The girls loved what they got from the Easter Bunny. Sydney is on Easter break from school and it is nice that we don't have to get up early. That is all that is going on from North Carolina. Just wanted to send some new pictures to everybody. I hope that everybody is well and talk to you all soon.

the class worked on together and is hanging up
in the local library. We are so proud of her.

T-ball, Easter Bunny, and other things

Hi Everybody,

We have had a busy weekend. The weather was so nice here. Sydney had her first T-ball game and did great. Her team name is the Yankee's and her number is 5. She hit the ball twice and did really good until she fell and then she was done. But she got up there the second time and did great. She has her second game tonight. She is finally riding her BIG Bike that Papa and Mimi Krause got her for x-mas 2007. She rides it great now. She had bring your daddy to school for breaksfast and she was so excited that he came to school with her. She did an Easter Egg hunt here and saw the Easter Bunny. We also went this morning and signed her up for kindergarten. We are looking forward to Spring Break and then when she goes back to school she will only have a month and half left of school and will be out for summer vacation. She is looking forward to the pool opening to go swimming.

Brooke did not like the Easter Bunny at all. She is all over the place and getting into everything. She likes going on walks to ride in her car. She is walking all over and now has eight teeth.

Shawn and I are doing good and just busy with the girls and work. Miss you all and hope you all like the pictures below.

Trying Out

I wanted a way of keeping everybody updated on everything that is going on here with us in North Carolina. I can never remember what I have told everybody about the girls and what I have not and I have not been really good with sending out pictures either. My friend Jennifer does this and I thought maybe I would try it and see how everybody likes this.

Sydney decided she wants to try T-ball so we signed her up for it and she was suppose to start this weekend but we had rain all weekend long. Once she does start I will let everybody know and post pictures here for everybody to see. She is all most done with school. She will have a graduation on May 22 at school. She is getting a cap and gown. She is so excited. I have to sign her up for kindergarten the beginning of April. I can not believe that she is going to kindergarten.

Brooke just turned 1 and she is getting into more stuff now. She is my little devil that is for sure. She is walking all over the place. I took her to the doctor and she weighs 26lbs and is 31 inches tall.

Shawn is busy with work they are talking about him going to Montreal for a week for work. I'm just busy with talking Sydney to school and going to work at night.We are happy down here and we like it a lot. Waiting for the warm weather so the pool will open at the club house. We love everybody and miss you all.
