Spring!!!

Spring has sprung!!! This 80' weather is fabulous in March!!! We have been outside everyday and every evening pulling weeds, riding bikes, shooting the bow & arrow (Craig & the boys) taking walks, playing soccer...just having fun!

Last night we put all the kids to bed and Craig and I were relaxing a little in front of the tv. We were listening to and watching Levi on the monitor....what a cutie! He was laying on his back, looking up to the ceiling and saying, "Hi Mommy!" "Hi Daddy!" "I, Levi Pritchett!" "I, Levi Pritchett!" "I, Levi Pritchett!" SO adorable!

Really??? It's been that long????

Has it really been over a year since my last post...I'm so not good at this blogging thing! So much in our life has changed this past year...

Since I can't go back and remember every great or challenging that happened to our family...I will start fresh once again!

It's March, but feels like summer out! We have been enjoying mid to high 70's all week and it's suppose to stay this nice for at least another week! The windows and doors are open and the kids are playing outside! Love it!!!

Craig has been busy doing things around the house in this nice weather when he is home and we've enjoyed some nice walks on the Rail Trail near the house too! He has been working lots and we are very thankful for his job. He now gets 3 weeks vacation and we already enjoyed the first one in February. We went down to Ft. Myers Beach for a week before our Orlando vacation with my family! It was a great vacation with beautiful weather and a great view from our oceanfront hotel! We are planning a trip to Gatlinburg over Spring Break and then he has the week of Ryan's graduation in May!

Alex, Drew & Autumn have been busy with school and soccer! They are all doing really well and enjoying all their friends and activities. We have been busy planning Alex's 10th bday party! He's waited 5 years to have a "friend" party! We are hoping to go to Paradise Park for Laser Tag and a Bounce House Obstacle Course! Autumn is busy with all her friends and playdates! Drew is our math man and loves to figure out problems all the time!

Levi is getting so big so fast! He says the cutest little things! If you ask him if he's a baby he says, "I not a baby, I a BIG boy!" Around Christmas time I winked at him and he winked back! He can wink with both eyes and gives the cutest little smile with it! Adorable! He loves "Cars" right now and almost always has 2 cars in his hands at all times. He recently started loving Dinos too! He's at a fun age! We went to the Zoo the other day and enjoyed watching the animals!

Ryan was accepted to Georgia Tech for the fall and we are so proud of him! He is playing baseball right now and just starred in his school play as the Beast in Beauty and the Beast! We are hoping he has some time to visit this summer before college begins.

I have been busy with different commitments...at our church (Oak Pointe) there is a Moms Bible Study that I've been helping with. It's been great to meet and get to know other moms in our area. I also committed to be the Cookie Mom for Autumn's Brownie Troop and the Team Manager for Autumn's soccer team....what was I thinking???? :) I have been wanting to get in shape and start exercising so I finally did it...I started the "Couch to 5K" and I'm on Week 3 starting tomorrow. The mornings Craig is home I've been waking up at 5:50am to exercise with Lisa in her basement on the treadmill. It's working out good so far. Some mornings its really hard to get out of bed, but I'm so glad I did it once I'm back home.

Well...that's our update! I do hope to update more often and I'll try to get some pictures on here too!!!
