Spring 2013

It's been waaaaay too long since I lasted posted... been a very busy and exciting spring! School has kept me hopping with a large art club mural and end of the year activities. And on the home front, we have been rather preoccupied with our impending move... that's right... we are moving again! We decided to relocate back to Jefferson City to be closer to work and school for Kieran. After much debate, we came to the conclusion that because neither of us would probably seek work in Ashland or Columbia and that due to a lack of after school care, Kieran will need to attend school in Jeff there really is no good reason to stay here in Ashland. We will of course miss the close proximity to my folk's place, but other than that, there really isn't any good reason to stay half way between the two towns. This move will allow us more house and land and save us time and money in our daily activities... it just made sense. In any case, the next time I post I imagine it will be from our new digs in JC and I will be sure to post pics of the house then. For now, I am going to try to update the blog with a the sparse photos I do have from the past couple months...

Trying on mom's boots... it's a good look for him ;)

Presley's 4th birthday...

All the kids loved the party favors :)

Presley was pretty impressed with the princess cake I made her... my first attempt at fondant went surprisingly well.

The cousins read to each other (at the same time) during the party.

I want my cake here!

Balloons and a big box- perfect!
