January...still no snow:(

Our Chloe turned 2.  We celebrated the best way a doggie could celebrate....with dog-bone shaped meat slices.  She shared with T-Bone...but only because he butted his way in and helped himself.

Drake and I joined his preschool class at the library on Ground Hog day for Story Time.  He got to be one of the ground hogs who demonstrated what happens when they see sun or clouds.

Dane's 1st grade class did a power point presentation on the solar system.  Each child was given something to research and then they read their slide to us other astranauts.  The clothing was white...we all looked like a bunch of marshmellows...not astranauts.  I was really impressed with the knowledge and the amount of work these 1st graders did.  A power point!  In 1st grade!  Really?  My bachelor's degree is probably now equivilant to high school diplomas now.

We went to the Monster Jam again...it's our annual February treat for the boys.  They love it and of course the next day we go to the toy store and buy more monster trucks that we either don't have or they now "have to have" because they did a cool stunt at the show.

Basket Ball has started.  Here's Drake's first game.  He's #11.  Look at him go!  He's got the dribbling thing down.  Making baskets you ask?  Well, it's the beginning of the season, he's got time to practice his skills. :)

And here's Dane's first game.  He's the clear kid on the left.  Somehow my phone captured this picture.  It looks neat how it focused on the kids running and the rest is blurry.

Dane made the first basket in this game.  He's #6.  If you look closely you can see the basket in the net. 
GO DANE!

I took a picture of each of them after their first game, but Dane was not so pleased...He was hot, tired and wanted his Gatoraide.

Dane has lost even MORE teeth.  Here's his toothless grin.  We will watch "Toothless" on How to Train a Dragon in honor of his new look for our Movie Night this Friday.
