Jan 2017

January is birthday month for us. We started out with celebrating Bryce's birthday with a family dinner at Mema and Papa's house. 

And then we took him out to Chuy's for his actual birthday to celebrate which was fun!

The kids got some awards at school for a job well done in the first half of the school year.

Caitlin even got perfect attendance!!

 Evan got his award too - but I didn't get a picture with the certificate. He did great with all A's for the fall semester. 

January is also always Pinewood Derby month for Boy Scouts. This year, all 3 kids wanted a car. Here was the design that Evan picked out.

And here were Caitlin and Ryan's. Bryce made Caitlin's but Papa was the one who created this awesome Ghostbuster car for Ryan. Amazing!!

Evan with a bunch of his Den before the racing began.

And the results: Evan was the fastest Bear car! He won first place for his Den and Alex won Best Design. 

Evan and Daddy worked together as a team on this one.

Then it was time for the open race (Ryan and Caitlin's race). Amazing, but Ryan took home first place! He had the fastest car of all the open entries. And his good friend Jacob took second place!

Way to go Papa and Ryan on a great car!
