Mama Bear

I know I've mentioned it many time before, but we love kindergarten at PDS.  They do several plays every year and Everly was so excited to be Mama Bear in the Goldilocks play.  I know I'm biased, but she did so amazing!  She said her lines very loud and clear and really "acted"!  She's already asked to be in another play!  A star is born!

Here are some pictures!  The Bear family:

All her little friends.

Proud Mama Bear!

Daddy and I are so proud!

The amazing Mrs. Fox!

I love the confidence Mrs. Fox has given BOTH my kids.  She's a wonderful teacher and we are so blessed at the impact she's  had on our kids.

The Woods Who Golf

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this on the blog, or not.  Walker is getting pretty darn good at golf!  He's been taking weekly lessons this year and continues to improve.  So, for fun we decided on a family outing to Top Golf.  What a great time!

Everly is very good.  She's fighting lessons, but I will get that girl in them eventually!

Walker loved Top Golf and loves anything involving golf, in general.

And, of course, Clark hits the ball a mile!

Sillies…

The girls watching the boys!

Walker's junior golf program is like karate.  As you improve, you can take tests to try to get to the next level.  He started with a white hat… earned a yellow stripe, so then it was time to test for the yellow cap.  He was already done with driving. Next up putting.  He nailed one part.  He needed to get five out of ten in this circle around the hole.  These were his first five putts:

He did amazing.  A guy in the parking lot started yelling "wow, look at that kid! He has such a touch…. I've never seen anything like it!"  So cool.  BUT, he didn't make enough of the three footers.  So, it was time to practice:

Little sister had to be into it, too.

A few days later he passed!! (you had to get six out of ten in the hole.  He got eight out of ten) So, all that was left was chipping.  So we went to the course to practice.

And, success! A yellow cap!!!

Boy was he proud.  Watching him golf has been so fun.  He takes it very seriously, practices hard and continues to improve.  Since he got the yellow cap, he moved up to a more advanced group.  He LOVES it!

We joined the country club and wouldn't you know…. they started a women's clinic! Yep, Mommy is going to learn, too.  I've only been once, but I really enjoyed it.  Golf with the entire family!  I hope this means lots of memories to be made on the golf course!

A Family Valentine

Clark and I had plans to have an "after the kids go to bed" date for Valentine's Day.  But, we decided it would be more fun to have a family Valentine's!  Everly helped me decorate the table and make a few things.  Clark cooked some amazing steak and we had such a great dinner.  The kids like that I let them drink their milk out of champagne glasses!  Everly loves to set a beautiful table.  I can't imagine where she got that! 

Here are ALL of my precious Valentine's:

The most handsome boy….

And, beautiful girl.

I feel confident that a new tradition was born.  Family Valentine's from now on!

Just for Fun

Sometimes I like to include some fun, silly pictures on the blog, but they don't necessary have a good story to go with them.  So, here ya go!

Everly looking very cute for church!

Snuggly Elsa.

Both kids got a great report at the dentist!

Walker missed lunch because of that dentist appointment.  I enjoyed our one on one McDonalds date!

Everly entertaining me in car line!

More car line adventures.

Bunnies getting ready for Easter!

Here they are enjoying a skating party!

I'm not going to lie.  I hate skating parties.  Every time I'm in there I'm afraid someone is going to break a bone!  But, they had a blast and came out unharmed.  Ha!
