Jacob's Shooting Stars Season

This year, Jacob was the only kid we had in Shooting Stars!  Josh was his coach.  It was a bit of a rough year.  The teams were not evenly divided, and we got smoked every week.  But, Jacob did well and had a good season!
His cousin Landon was on his team, as well as Landon's cousin Casen!
Jacob showing that we got 6th place... out of 6 teams... 
This was a typical scoreboard for us... we're the visitors... 
But, it's all about the learning and it will only make him better, right!?  

Mom's 60th & Dad's 60th

My parents BOTH turned 60 this month!  We had party at Betsy's to celebrate mom, and we had a party at our house to celebrate dad!  We also took mom for a day of shopping and eating out to celebrate:




Betsy made an awesome cake:




We got mom new curtains:
Mom was partied out:




Then we had fun getting ready for dad's birthday as well!  I made a cookie bouquet:






Betsy made another awesome cake:
and mom did as well:
Dad's sister and brother both came.  It was a surprise because Aunt Paula lives 9 hours away!

I made some "60" cookies for the party as well:
We hope mom & dad both know how loved they are!

Valentine's Day at Home

Due to a snowstorm early in the day, we were able to have our Valentine Day dinner on the 14th, before Josh & Jacob had to go to basketball practice.  I had all day to get ready:








Grandma & Papa stopped by with gifts for the kids, and Josh and I got them some things as well:

Hannah got chocos!
Lucas got a Snoopy:
Aleah got some Justice sandals:
Jacob got new baseball cleats:
The handle broke off my favorite mug from Disney World, so Josh got me a new one:
I got him Jeni's ice cream!
I love Valentine's Day with my family!
