A big week for Trevin

This week Trevin:

-graduated to a 1/8th size violin (anyone need a 1/10th size?)

-completed Kindergarten Roundup (he's signed up for school)

-changed his mind about 'staying 5 forever'...he turned 5 1/2!

-helped pack his suitcase & new backpack for our CA trip

 

Now we are off for a fabulous Spring Break adventure...California bound!

Special Meeting week

Our special meeting week was full of special visitors, birthday surprises, coffee visits, lunches, & more.  Our cousins Scott was back in TX for special meetings.  He & cousin Rachel joined us for lunch one day.  We loved hearing all about IL/IN/MI & they loved hearing a violin performance.

We surprised Auntie Jennifer with a famous Round Rock Donut to celebrate her birthday (a bit early).  Lavina joined us too!

 

Dinner at Pho Dan with Auntie...experiencing a tiny bit of Vietnam with her.

Not to be left out...

Other birthdays earlier this year...
Say 'cheese' Trevin...not sure where the birthday boy went...but we found Mr. Jax later sporting a fantastic superhero cape made by his Grandma Teresa.  And wow!  All the kiddos got to take one home.  Made just-for-them.  Super wow.

Simply adorable....we love this girl to pieces.  (especially Trevin)

 

RockTape Certification

I recently attended a certification course for myofascial taping from the company RockTape.  Their products are relatively new however they have been used at the Olympics, CrossFit events, etc.  I am looking forward to using their products & techniques as an adjunct to physical therapy.

Celebrating Amy

We have not have had any shortage of birthdays to celebrate around here.  But this celebration was for my dear sister.  What fun to have her nearby to spoil & celebrate her.  It gave me an excuse to 'improve' my baking skills.  I was told it was a superb chocolate cake.  :)  Success!

Grandpa Larry's visit to Texas

Grandpa Larry visited us at the end of February.  We loved every minute of it.  I especially enjoyed hearing more about Grandma Ruth's funeral & pieces of her faithful life.  The Farm game & a trip to REI were pretty important activities.  Despite the gloomy weather, we had a grand time & enjoyed Texas BBQ together on Sunday.  Thanks for visiting us Grandpa Larry!
