Taking It Cheesy ... Crazy Tales of Alex & Spencer
Alex and I went on a fun field trip to the Raptor Center with his Pre-K class. We learned about owls, met a few in person, then walked the trails. It’s a good thing Alex and I had been there before, because the kids raced from bird to bird … I don’t think they actually looked at any of them!

We closed on the new house towards the end of April! We enjoyed the almost 3.5 years in our rental, but we are so happy to have our own house again!
 The boys are ready to go in the moving truck! |

 Our new home-sweet-home! |
 This yard looks so different now (I’m writing this in October!) We’ve cut down the cedar trees, encouraged the grass, built a tree house, and improved the deck. |
 We have the same fun boys, though! |
Spencer loved his time in KinderMusik! I’m sorry we had to stop going after we moved … life was just too busy!

Alex and Spencer were very brave at Liam’s petting zoo birthday party. I couldn’t believe they were willing and excited to hold so many different animals!!

Our Spring Breaks never line up, but since Alex was still in preschool, we were able to find a free day to meet with with Ms. Amanda, Cerys, and Ace at the Schiele Museum in Gastonia. After exploring the museum, we tried out a local park and had a picnic. It was such a fun day!

We also took a break from packing to go on a camping trip. The Uwharrie National Forest is only an hour from our house, so this was a great find for us! We hope to go back again soon!
 Relaxing after setting up the tent. |
 We went on a very s-l-o-w 3 mile hike to the river. |
 Monkey see, Monkey do. |
 Can you find the snake? |
 My whole heart <3 |
 Enjoying a picnic lunch before heading back on the other half of our hike. |
 Look at the great breeze (check out Alex’s hair). |
 I think I need a canvas of this one. Love these cute boys! |
 Two passed out little boys! |
In between the packing and cleaning and wall repair from 2 dirty boys and a dirty dog, we still managed to have a lot of fun!!
 The Easter Bunny brought garden tools, water bottles, and a few treats! |
 The Easter Bunny even filled eggs with a Lego set! What a surprise! |
 Spencer found the jelly beans while Daddy worked on his Legos. |
 Sidewalk chalk craziness … |
 Alex, you know we are trying to clean this house, right? |
 Oh, just pizza and balloon popping with the power wheels. |
 Alex was feeling very victorious after popping almost all of Spencer’s balloons. |
