100th Day of School

 The boys didn't want to celebrate the 100th day of school this year, but Piper was definitely excited to have her first one! We made her shirt ourselves, with 100 rainbow gemstones---her favorite.

Happy Birthday, Megan!


Megan is my coworker and one of my dear friends. To celebrate her birthday, a few of us teachers took her for Mexican in Pella. It was such a fun night and special to treat such a wonderful woman!

MLK Day of Service

We had no school of MLK Day, so teachers participated in bagging meals for the homeless. It was a great day and so fun to see so many Osky employees volunteer :)

Harlem Globetrotters 2023

 For Christmas, Brook gave the boys Harlem Globetrotter tickets. Unfortunately, Bond was sick so we took Piper and Beau's friend Karsyn along. The kids had SO MUCH FUN! I have not seen them smile or laugh so much. We had great sideline seats---and the show was amazing!

Girls Day Out

Piper is so my mini me. She LOVES when I treat her to getting her nails painted. She usually wants rainbow colors, and is very clear about what pattern she wants. I love these times with her :)

Baine and His Stuffies

Baine is the king for having the most stuffies. He insists on bringing them everywhere---even Florida! :) They all have names, and it is a crisis if one goes missing. I love his imagination and how sentimental he is.

NYE 2022

We spent NYE at Clint and Taras--and swimming at Aunt Joi's pool. Everyone is really loving having that indoor pool---especially during the winter.  













Double Date Day in Pella

 Shawn and Brook have been together over 2 years now--which is crazy! But which also makes going on double dates so fun. We have always been one big family, but it's official now.
