work notes…

 My sweet friend covered my computer on affirmations and it made my day! Being a nurse can be such a sweet experience when it’s done with an amazing team!

Girl time in Redlands

With spring break right before Easter, Kit has been super busy, and with Ryder in Spain, Eden and I decided to have some girl time in Redlands. We shopped, ate, swam, looked through photos, and watched movies.

We made a trip to Cabazon and got date shakes and said hi to the dinosaurs too!

It was so fun to be together, laugh and talk and just enjoy each other. Having a daughter is the absolute BEST ever!

Celebrating a high school soccer season

Ryder’s High School Soccer Banquet was on March 26th  and it was so fun to celebrate these boys! Ryder was honored as the player with the highest GPA of all three teams as a Scholar Athlete, received the golden boot for goals scored, and his leadership as team captain and undefeated league champs. Who he is makes us so proud. 

We are so excited for what is ahead, on and off the field.

He’s off!

 On the 27th, we sent Ryder off to Spain. We took Eden out of school to have a special breakfast to celebrate his adventure.

Goodbyes are hard…

We are so excited for our kid and all that is ahead for him! I know there will be a photo dump when he gets back for sure!

Spain, he’s ready for you!

 Today Ryder is headed, with his soccer team, to Spain for the MIC tournament. He is over the moon and we are so excited for his adventure but man will we miss him! For Christmas we got him his travel kit and headphones for the trip and it felt like it would be forever before he left… Now here we are. 

Go get’em Ryder! Go Strikers!

We are heading into Spring Break and are excited for family time as we work, prep for Easter, and just spend time together (minus our big kid)…

fresh baked

 Kit as been baking bread again and we are all SO happy about it! I even helped which is why our pre loaves weren’t that pretty…

Our house always smells so good!

Kit, you’re the absolute best!

More touches…

 Ryder has been attending extra skill training for soccer on Friday nights, so Kit and Eden have been utilizing the time to find a net a practice goalie touches. By the end, everyone feels more confident going into a game weekend. I usually take walks and watch everyone do their thing. 

Ryder is in maroon.

It has been a good rhythm for us and we enjoy the time together.
