from winter to spring

Ahhh spring is in the air here! The countdown to spring break is on, vacations coming up, birthdays, our anniversary...I love this time of year. This past month was pretty busy with our daily routine, but overall a smooth and really good month for our family. To kick things off, here is a story from sweet Emmy ♥ 

We went to the home depot workshop at the start of the month. I love that they can now do more and more things together now that Emerson is getting older. It's so fun!

When I returned from my work trip, Drake went to have his quarterly meeting for his job, and we were blessed for his amazing 2017 with the company. So proud of Drake! 

During the weeks, we have our routine of school, work, going to the gym, and Easton is now in the end of basketball season and the beginning of t-ball, so we stay busy with that. 

Drake and Emerson had their first daddy/daughter date at Chick Fil A for Valentines day. 

Easton had a play date with Kinlee and gave her a Valentine. They are such sweet friends. 

Play doh!

:)

My work is going awesome! I love my job and am so thankful that God gave me this opportunity. At the office 2 days with co-workers I really like and home for 3, it's awesome!

The last couple weeks the weather has been great! We have enjoyed our weekends getting out and about. 

and playing at home :) 

I am so in love with this video. Easton didn't know Emerson was going to be with me at pick up last week. I love their bond! ♥ 

Last weekend I took my mom to the beach for (a very delayed) Christmas present. It was such a great day. We painted on the beach, ate lunch outside, and then got manis and pedis together. I am lucky to spend a lot of time with my parents, but it has been forever since we did something one on one, so it was really nice. 

Ballpark baby :) 

Easton's season is off to a good start! Opening day is tomorrow. I am so happy that he is enjoying it this year. Here is his 1st ever home run in their practice game the other night...

Playing at the park after school...

Wacky Wednesday. He is getting so big! 

Happy Friday!!

Well, January came and went already! I'm not going to lie, January is my least favorite month...you are coming off of a high from the holidays, it's dark way too early, cold, and just kind of a blah. Now that I am done whining...onto the good stuff! :) 

At the start of the month, we were still on Christmas break, so we enjoyed catching up with friends and lots of inside play time since it was so cold out. Yes, SO cold...I know it's Florida.

{my sweet boy and his obsession with his plush animals is the best thing ever}

Emerson is getting so big and continues to copy everything Easton does and wants to be independent in everything she does. She is a tough cookie but still loves on me at the end of the day ♥ 

I have been back in a good routine with working out now that a boot camp style gym opened right near our house that has childcare. It feels good to get back to being active after being very hit and miss for a while.

Easton went to his buddies birthday party at Chuck E Cheese

some of his classmates from school :)

Don't worry, Emerson enjoys tagging along for the cake

We actually had a snow {ice} day! haha 

So we hung out in pjs and went to the Otts house to hang for the day. 

Basketball season started :) Easton had an awesome 1st game...ready to head back up again first thing in the morning. 

Basketball in the AM-football in the PM :) 

 We enjoyed a pretty beach day with pop and nanny

{watching the surfers}

haha

♥ 

Flag football was awesome and Easton really loved playing this year. He ended up getting 6 touchdowns this season. 

 They went into the playoff weekend 3rd seed and beat both teams ahead of them to win the championship, it was awesome! 

Easton had another perfect report card-I am so proud of him! Then they celebrated the 100th day of school by dressing up as 100 year olds. 

 And I ended the month at a conference in Orlando for work. We had a little time at the mall goofing off before we had to start working the first day. My mentor is awesome :) 

 I am ready for an awesome February! Drake heads to Gainesville next week for work, where they are rewarding him for an awesome 2017 at his office. I am so proud and thankful. Have a great weekend...I will try and get better at updating a little more often :) xoxo
