Busy. Busy.

 March has flown by as we start to add in all the spring activities and practices. 

We enjoyed a Family Bingo Night at the elementary school. All the kids won a round, and Tuttle enjoyed coming back to visit Arnold Mill with several familiar faces, including Olivia.


Maggie continues to excel at her meets this season, and I cannot believe we only have two left before potentially qualifying for Regionals, her ultimate goal of the year. Her most recent meet was Sweet Tea, and she achieved a 37.575 AA (Vault-9.300, Bars-9.425, Beam-9.375, and Floor-9.475). We both agree that meets are not as nerve wracking this year because she is very confident on all four events.


Jacob finally had his chance to start baseball for spring, and he is playing for the Blue Jays. He definitely understands the rules of the game more this time, and he is eager (sometimes a little too eager) to help his teammates.

Tuttle and Jacob found a shared love of practicing and have spent several evenings playing baseball in the culdesac. I love this view from our house.


Tuttle is having another great season with Roswell Rec Baseball, too. The Braves won their second game of the season this week. Tuttle scored two runs and had three RBIs. He is still beaming over his part in the 12-4 victory!

We even watched Holland's soccer game this past weekend. Everyone is consumed with activities, and luckily we live close enough to cheer each other on!

Jay is still BUSY at work, but he finds some time to enjoy the sunshine working on his Jeep. That man loves a project, so he is always brainstorming the next move with his car. Jay craves warmer weather and took the top off the Jeep as soon as he possibly could. I know it is going to be such a fun addition to our family adventures this spring and summer!

Spirit Days and Opening Day

I know everyone says the days are long, but the years are short. Right now I feel like all the minutes are zooming by! 

The little kids celebrated Dr. Seuss Week with fun dress up days!

Maggie created her own "Crazy Hair Day" design featuring the solar system, complete with all the planets and a sun bun!

The Cat and The Hat and Thing 1 made an appearance on Wednesday.

The Friday theme was "Put Me In The Zoo," and I created the cutest parrot costume for Jacob. While he seemed to love it the night before, he refused to wear it to school the next morning. :(

Opening Day with Tuttle's baseball team was on Saturday, and the day could not have been more gorgeous! The Braves played hard and held the lead for a while until the D-Backs ended the game with a victory. Tuttle had a strong game with one run scored and got several boys out playing short stop. We are loving the coaches and know this will be another great season with Roswell.

Jacob is eager to start playing, too. His league starts in a week!

After four hours at the gym and another four hours at the ball field, it only made sense to host a million children at our house for a sleepover. The girls took over the basement with makeovers, Tik Tok dances, movies, and lots of laughter!

I have been picking up more substitute teaching jobs at both the elementary and middle schools. We adore Cherokee County and are so glad we made the decision to move.

Looking forward to more baseball, gymnastics, and warm weather this week!
