Mark's first ball practice

Well the pictures aren't a plenty from Mark's first TBall practice. We had a bit of a problem getting started. Mark was a little shy at first and didn't want to play with his teammates. After a little coercion, I talked him into running the bases. They practiced running the bases and listening to the coaches tell them when to run and stop. At the end, they did sprints. Here is a video of them running sprints.

Happy Sunday!

Gotta keep this post short; Elizabeth is waiting for a bedtime story. This has been a pretty busy week for us. I went out of town to Jacksonville for most of the week. I've been cleaning and doing laundry since I got home. Today was a very nice day. Reno & Jim came over and Reno took awesome pictures of the kids for the St. Patrick's day collage card I'm going to send out. Until then, here is a short preview of our fun time!

Saturday at The Adventure Science Center

We had a great day at the science center. Grandma Cindy bought Lily a membership for her birthday.

A few pictures Reno took :)

Thank you, Reno, for always having your camera around and capturing awesome pictures like this...

Happy Valentine's Day!

This is a video of the kids opening the presents they got from Aunt Jill :)

We had a great night last night! Baked ziti, chocolate, family, movies...what could be better!

I hope everyone had a happy valentine's day!

Monday evening

While in the kitchen I overheard Mark trying to get Lily to turn a show on for him. He started yelling and I told him to quit yelling. He then took himself into the playroom where he got his accordion and began to play it in her ear while saying "Lily - wake up!" I couldn't get my phone out quick enough. I was laughing so hard. Here is the end of Mark's attempt to get Lily to turn on a show for him....

So full of character

Why so many pictures of Elizabeth, you ask? Because she begs me to take her picture. She's so funny about it. "take Ella picture again!" she says. Here is a series of shots I took and she posed herself for each one....

Happy Birthday, Lily!

Lily turned 10 on the 18th and on Saturday we celebrated with a big party at the house. Lily had a great time. As usual, about 20 of her (closest) friends came to celebrate. Our house was FULL! 12 girls stayed the night. It was a great time for all. Lily definitely went into the double digits in style. Thank you to everyone who helped make her birthday party memorable!!

Pictures below were taken by Cindy & Reno. I had no time to take any, unfortunately, but i'm lucky to have wonderful people there to take them for me!

Sunday Morning

Just another beautiful Sunday morning at the Morgan's. By 10:00 am we have watched two movies, played two games and ate breakfast and a snack. Mommy is a little tired.

They get to see Granny and Papa today and they are both very excited.

Almost time for nap! I may be right there with them! :)

Happy Sunday!

Work trip

One of the great benefits to my job is the travel. Although I miss my kids terribly, it's great to go places I've never been before. I'm at DCA waiting on my flight. We finished up early today so I took a stroll down 17th, Pennsylvania Avenue & Constitution. This is by far one of my most favorite trips of all time. The monuments are so much more than I expected. Really amazing.
