Happy Birthday Conlan

Conlan turned 8 this past week. He decided he wanted a soccer party. Jenna made her best attempt at a soccer ball cake (a bit tricky). We celebrated with family, went to laser tag and had a fabulous time hanging out with everyone. Once again, did a terrible job taking pictures, oops. But here are a few!

Soccer - End of the Year

The end of the soccer year arrived! Conlan was a bit sad, but ready to take a well deserved break (so was the driver). His coach treated them to a pizza party and an awards ceremony. The boys had a great season. Try outs will begin next month and it will all begin again, but for now Con is in the backyard practicing and working on his skills. The rest of us are taking a well deserved rest!

Job well done buddy! You had a great season and we are so proud of you!

Damara's First Haircut

The time had come for Damara to cut off that baby hair...sniff, sniff. She had Dad, Mom and brother and sister to give her that moral support. For the most part she did fantastic and we discovered that under all of that baby hair is a big girl!

Disneyland Trip

During Conlan's spring break we were able to head out to California and enjoy a few days. The first night we got there, we were able to go see a Galaxy game. Of course Con was in heaven. Too bad Arizona doesn't have a pro soccer team. And thanks to a very dear friend with sign-in privilidges the McCoy family was finally able to make it out to Disneyland and introduce the girls to the Magic Kingdom. We spent 2 days battling the crazy crowds and completely exhausted, but when all was said and done it was amazing and we all had such a great time! As usual we did a terrible job of taking pictures cause we were having so much fun, but here are a few:

And at long last, Aislinn finally got to meet Tink

Silliness!

For Conlan's spirit week at school they had Wacky Wednesday. They made the kids conform to the uniform, but Conlan took the liberty to be silly wherever else he could. He went for a mohawk with spikes, a tie and mismatched shoes. Our silly guy!

The two girls love their Tinkerbell house and on most days you can hear lots of giggling and silliness ensuing within the paperthin walls. Here they are caught in action!

Going, Going...Gone!

Damara has decided to take naps out of the mix, yay. Most the time by dinner time she is so exhausted that she can barely keep her eyes open, let alone finish her meal. Here is one of her particularly tired moments. It is rough to be one!                                             


                                                 

Someday My Prince Will Come....

Aislinn notoriously uses the couches as her personal play area, and our cat Sunny loves to lounge around on the couch and sleep. Most the time in the most awkward position because she is trying to fit around the littered toy box of a couch. Jenna walked in the room the other day to discover our fluffy girl using the prince as a pillow, but we are convinced that she was dreaming of her prince too!
