Happy ELEVEN sweet girl!

You know you have fabulous Sunday school teachers when on your birthday week you receive this! They are so sweet, from sending postcards while they travel to remembering birthdays, they sure know how to make Sage feel special!



Of course it wouldn't be a complete birthday without the traditional crepe breakfast!



I don't think Sage's dinner choice would be a surprise to anyone! Lucky for us they have a Blaze Pizza at Disney Springs...albeit, a very overpriced one but equally as good as the one we left behind in Mason!



Of all the things Sage could want for your birthday, slime supplies were at the top of the list...



I don't know what I was thinking when I thought I may get out of having a "friend" party for her this year. It doesn't take long for this cute girl to make friends and before we had even settled on a day she had secretly been discussing with friends the best day to party together! Dad's job definitely has it's perks...



What a blessing Sage is in our lives. She is loved by everyone, and although at times she squabbles with her brothers, it's evident how much she adores them and looks up to them. She loves to cook, watch Studio C videos on her ipad, swim, babysit, sing, and make slime! She continues to always be a good friend and adores being a helper to the younger kids. Happy Birthday sweet Sage. We sure love you to the moon and back infinity!

West Orange High School water polo season wrap up!

Suprisingly, the facilities here in Florida are nothing compared to what we had in Ohio but that didn't stop Connor and Ty from having a great season and making new friends. Aside from a few photos I captured at their Boca Tournament and posted about already, I didn't take many photos but thanks to a kind parent, here are a few fun shots from the season.



It woudln't have been such a successful season had it not been for Coach Dailer (Jen). Both her and Coach Eccleston were great but Jen was especially helpful in making the transition onto the team as smooth as possible. She really looks after the kids and they all love her! Like their past coaches, she was also very complimentary about the boys both with their skill and their ability to take feedback and be teachable...things that make my heart happy.



Another school, another letter...



With twins participating in the same activity, it's always a bit difficult to see one receive an award while the other doesn't, especially knowing they both worked equally as hard. But how much it warmed my heart to see how happy Connor was for Ty when he received Rookie of the Year...again. I guess if you have two coaches from two different states award you with that award, it must mean something! How proud we are of both our boys though for all the hard work they put in and the great example they were to their teammates. Ty really killed it this season with goals and steals. Proud of you Ty Baby!



We will now look forward to watching the boys play at yet another high school for their sophmore year as they transfer over to the new Windermere High School this fall!

Guys Trip for Jack!

Jack always loves getting together with this group of guys for their annual Tycation, in memory of our dear friend Ty Bailey. This year they all met back in Arizona for some golf and guy time! Surprisingly, this time Jack managed to take a few photos...





What a fine group of men. So grateful for the friendship Jack has with each of them.
