Spring Open House

 On Thursday, we had Olivia and Joey's open house at school.  They were SO proud to walk around and show us all of their projects.  I am blessed to teach at their school and see their projects and classroom everyday/week; but it was nice for Jason to see all of their school work. 

At the end of the night,  Olivia sang 3 songs in the spring concert.  She was very proud of herself...I think we have a little performer on our hands!

This is Joey's kite and flower.

Spring Training

This spring Olivia will be playing T-Ball.  She is very excited to try a new sport!  Tonight Jason started spring training with her and Joey.  He showed them how to hit from the t-ball stand, catch the ball, and run the bases.  Livi will be primed and ready for her first game in May!

 




Springtime Fun

The weather has been so nice this spring!  We have been playing outside a lot, soaking up all of the beautiful weather.  Tonight Kelly and Rick came down to bring us out to supper, and then we played at the park for awhile.  A BIG thank you to Kelly and Rick for visiting and treating us to a delicious dinner!

This spring Olivia and Joey have been riding their bikes a lot.  Olivia's goal is to get her training wheels off by the end of the summer!

Jumperoos


Olivia and Joey got a new trampoline from Grandpa Dressler and Pattie for Christmas.  Since it was winter time we could not set it up until the weather got warmer.  This weekend Jason was able to get the trampoline set up and Livi and Joey have been jumping for hours!  They are SO excited!

A BIG thank you to Grandpa and Pattie for our new trampoline!

Playdate at the Park




 Jake, Stephanie, and I made it our goal to get Olivia, Nicholas, and Joey together at least once a month to play and catch up.  In March, we they came to Springfield and we headed to Washington Park.  It was a BEAUTIFUL day, and the kids had so much fun playing together.  After the park, we headed to a new ice cream shop for desert.  Livi and Joey can't wait until their next play date!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

On St. Patrick's Day, since it fell on a Saturday this year, Olivia, Joey, and I went to the Springfield St. Patrick's Day parade.  Livi and Joey love see all of the animals, cars, clowns, bands, and performers in the parade.  They also love making new friends with the kids they sit next too during the parade :).  After an hour long parade, and two bags full of candy, we were ready to go home and rest up for a dinner date with daddy!

Cousins

 This week Grandma Heiple had some visitors....Samuel, Luke, Abiti, and Abe!  Jess and Ben took a trip out to Colorado to apartment and house hunt, and left the boys with Grandma and Grandpa.  On Friday they all came down to visit and have a fun afternoon at the park.  We went to McDonald's to pick up lunch and then headed to Southwind Park.  Everyone had a great time playing!

Our Beautiful Bridesmaid


A tradition in Kindergarten is the celebration of the union on the letters Q and U.  As we all know Q would be nothing (our say nothing) without the letter U, so at Rochester we hold a marriage ceremony for the letters Q and U.  Olivia was honored with the opportunity to be the letter U's bridesmaid.  She and two other kindergartners were her bridesmaids; and Jason, Joey, and I were able to attend the ceremony as her guests!  It was the cutest thing I have ever seen, and a memory that Olivia will always remember!

Windy Day

This is what happens to your basketball pole when you have 35-40 MPH wind gusts...oh and when the pole is rusted at the bottom!

My Snuggle Bugs

There is nothing like a quiet day at home where you stay in your pajamas all day long and snuggle in blankets!  That has become a Heiple favorite on the weekends!
