Champion Basketball 2011


It's Champion basketball season again. We were in awe by Kaden's improvement this year!  He truly loves this game and it shows!
 This is his first year of actually playing the game on a wood court and not CARPET!  

 Coach Dad and Coach Eric and a great group of boys!

Kaden was lucky to have a cheering section during his first game.  G & G B. were here for the weekend before they drive to Texas next week.  I left Addie at home with a sitter, that's why I was able to actually get some pics of his game!  :)

2011...changes!


Miss Addie has decided to climb out of her crib.  And she isn't napping very long anymore.  Heaven help me...

 

 Kaden got his first F in school...on his vision test!  So, off he went to the eye doctor! The doctor's prescription?  Glasses!  He was very excited and couldn't wait to wear them to school.  I'm happy to report he hasn't lost them or broken them...yet. 

The dreaded Kindergarten letter.  I remember being really excited to see these come for Kaden, but I am not as excited to see them for Hudsen.  My kids are growing up too fast, I wish I could put the breaks on a little.

Christmas 2010 pics finally posted!









Aww, brotherly love!

Huddy loves his new headphones!





Santa came!


Addie's new chair

Addie got a new pink potty!  I'm hoping she will use it soon!

But, she was way more excited about the package of pacies she had in her stocking!




And on the road we went to Iowa for more Christmas!
We got to grandma's & started eating some yummy stuff right away! 

After church, we headed to Christmas Eve at G & G Blum's.  The boys had never seen The Christmas Story, so we all watched that together.  They really liked Ralphie!   




Adalyn sharing some goodies with Grandpa Blum!


The next morning we woke up at Grandma Blum's and had Christmas with there.  Kaden got a really cool hunting vest from Grandpa.  He was so excited!  


And Hudsen got a Red Ryder BB Gun! Grandpa really wants these boys to be hunters someday!


Onto G & G Horner's house for more Christmas!  

The boys got out some of their dad's old monster trucks that Grandma still had.  They all (including my husband!) had a blast playing with them! 



A Christmas kiss for Grandma!  

Jill made Addie a cute little purse with her name on it. 
She loves it!
Adalyn screamed every time she opened one of her gifts!  She was so excited!
That is Kaden tackling his G & G with hugs after opening his new Vikings jersey!  
He REALLY liked it!

New Percy Harvin and new Hawks pj pants. Happy boy!

Then, two weeks later, we had ANOTHER Christmas with the Horner cousins.  We stayed at their house up in the cities all weekend and had a blast!  
Miss Ellery is all ready for Hawkeye football next fall!

Crazy cousins having a blast together!

I love Christmas, but by January 3rd, I'm really ready to take it all down!  The kids usually have a hard time seeing the trees go down, but for some reason, they were o.k. with it this year.  They must have been feeling the Christmas overload, too!

Now onto my least favorite month of the year...January.
