Foxcroft happenings.....

I am finally sitting down and trying to catch up on my blogging. Seems like that is what I do...a huge post about everything. So here are a few things we have been up to since my last post. I need to try to do better because I have a lot of things coming up soon like kyle's GRADUATION! Wow times flies. But for now here is the latest going ons in our lives!


We took the kids to the dunes for Spring break awhile back. We had an enjoyable time. Makenna chose to go to St. Johns with Chris and Keirsten so she wasn't with us. Kailey brought her friend Mariah. What a fun girl she is! Kyle brought his friend aaron. Too cool for words...and I brought my friend Kim. We had a good time staying up late playing games and visiting. I had to put this picture of aaron on here. He came back after a ride and his hair was so poofy. I laughed and took a picture for his mom. It was pretty funny he and kyle's hair was so fluffy. We found some baby birds in the front of our toy hauler. I hope the mom came back to them once we left. It was a nice spring break!











Kids buzzing around on the toys....












On the way home from the dunes...the boys were exhausted and tried to sleep. Kailey thought it was so funny to take pictures of them. Kyle with one eye opened while he slept, and poor aaron couldn't get comfortable....he kept moving all around. I laughed when I saw the picture of kailey laying back like she is admiring him. Too funny!













Makenna dressed up for school spirit day. Can you guess what era?

Kaden's strawberry plant produced! He was quite excited about that.




Makenna got BRACES! She looks so much older now. Sort of makes me sad! She looks cute as a button!



Kyle asked Amie to Prom...He got a giant rock and painted No on it and a little rock with yes on it. Hoping she would return the little rock. Put tons of tea light candles out in a shape of a heart. It was fun...Amie's family was great to help as you can see by the pictures! We were glad the rain stopped for a brief period so the candles would stay lit.









Don't worry she answered back with a yes! She wrote two tiny yes in the bottom of one of the candles. Kyle didn't burn them all he pulled out all of the candles and found the answer. I think if you click on the picture it may show the poster better. It is hard to read from the pictures.








Easter Egg hunts in the back yard. My dad started a tradition a very long time ago or maybe it was my brothers...anyways they put large amounts of money in eggs. So we have kept on with that tradition. It is great because it gets the older kids to still run around like crazy kids. I believe that Kyle found the "big" prize and makenna found the other money eggs.

Wish we could have had Easter together, but it looks like you guys had fun. The pictures make me miss you all so I cant' wait to see you guys, hopefully soon. I didn't know Makenna got braces either.. she really does suddenly look older.

Glad you're back in the blogging world! :) Looks like you guys have been busy. I've tried to sell my parents on the money-in-the-eggs idea and they won't buy into it. No pun intended.

WOW! What a busy family you have been. I love the money in the eggs idea! The dunes look so fun! I love Kyle and Aaron sleeping on the way home....now that was FUNNY!!

I think Aaron and Kyle look great with poofy hair and are so very photogenic in their sleep! Mckenna would have done well in the 80's! I used to wear my hair just like that! Looks like you guys know how to have a ton of fun!

What a FUN life! Keep on bloggin' so you'll remember it when... next year, next week, when the kids are all gone and you can't remember why you always felt so tired!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who slacked on the blogging! I feel better now. Looks like you guys are having tons of fun. I loved the sleeping shots...hilarious. The concert sounded like fun too....we all need to go to a concert from time to time to feel young! (or does it make us feel old?? maybe it just makes us feel good! :)
