Measuring Up

We did our yearly measuring stick for FHE and set some New Year's goals. The little ones are gaining a few inches a year. Fun to watch. And here is a random picture of Chloe with funny hair. We usually have a couple of games of basketball a week for Phoebe. We love watching her play.

Sweet Sixteen

Sixteen year old in the house. Phoebe's birthday was pretty  busy with school and basketball games. She got no less than four bouqets of flowers. Our house looked like a floral shop. We love our Phoebe. She keeps us laughing (aside from the usual teen angst).

It was a fun way to get some wiggles out. Morgan was alone with us for a few days while the kids were with their mom, so she started just crawling in bed with us while we watched tv. On New Year's Eve day we gathered a bunch of the kids together to see Rogue One. Loved it! That night the older kids went to par
