New Adventures in Hiking

This past Sunday, Mike, the kids, and I decided to try our hand at hiking.  Our first adventure was the Hall Lake trail in the Yankee Springs area.

Chase loved his new ride!  Audra did great as well.  I thought for sure she would tire-but she did well for the most part.  Her tennies could have been a size (or 2-oops) larger.

The scenery was great.



In true Audra fashion, we came home with an endless supply of rocks, acorns, weedy flowers, and leaves.  We decided to paint this rock and write the date, and place on it.

FRIDAY'S

Most Friday's we can be found hanging out at my parent's house.  This past Friday the weather was gorgeous, so we had a slip and slide party!  Deb and the kid's had a squirt gun fight, and the play cottage is always a hit!

Receiveing her certificate from her teacher, Ms. Law.

Rollar Skating

We recently took the kids to the Kentwood Fun Spot to try out rollarskating.  What I was assured was "family hour" turned out to be teenage kids and ghetto music.  There is a place in Grandville that plays Christian music-I think we may try that next time! Even though she was completely AWFUL at skating, she had fun.  Mike and I took turns dragging her around the rink.

 As long as it wasn't too busy they allowed strollers.  Chase even got in on the fun!

Not My Calling

Audra and I decided to make a Valentine's cake for dinner at Grandma Huizenga's house tommorrow. 

This is the worst cake shape I have ever seen.  Both tiers of our cake broke in half coming out of the pan, and the decorative pink frosting on the sides will probably slide off the top!  She has fun decorating however.  That is all that matters!

He is climbing on stuff, crawling all over the place, and always happy!

This is how you know it is time to put the crib down!

Chase 8 1/2 Months

It has been over 2 months since I have blogged! Chase is now 8 1/2 months old. The time has gone so fast. Most days! Underneath the table is a great place to chew on stuff. On the off chance I should ever decide to cut some teeth!
He has only been crawling for 4 days now, but he sure can move. (And I can not find all the parts for my babygate. Poor kid gets confined to his exersaucer everytime I am out of view!)

Love those cheeks!
