Soccer Time!

Cal had his first soccer practice last night! He was apprehensive at first but was great within 5 minutes. The practice only lasted 20 minutes, which was good for a team of 3 and 4  year olds. He was so proud of himself for not crying when he fell down!

Cal's First Sleepover

Cal and Liam their first sleepover last weekend. They had a blast! The boys played Batman, Veggie Tales, watched Shrek, stayed up late, and had pancakes for breakfast. Can't wait to do it again! 

Cheesecake Mel

Thanks to my wonderful Aunt Barbara (my mom's sister), I have become a little addicted to making cheesecake!!! It is a slight problem considering I love to EAT cheesecake, but I truly enjoy making them. Anytime we have people over or there is a good reason for dessert.... cheesecake it is!! I am going to start posting all of them so you can be inspired to bake.  My Aunt gave me this cookbook for Christmas in 2011 and I have used recipes from this book for almost all of them. Here is the website if you have the itch to jump on the cheesecake bandwagon:  Juniors Cheesecake

White Chocolate Raspberry, Christmas 2011

Triplet Chocolate, February 2013

I have also made the following but can't find the pictures right now.... Classic Cheesecake, Chocolate Crunch (with Heathbar topping), and Peppermint Bark

Handsome Boys

Valentine's Day 2013

February Date

Our February date was a "coffee shop date." Yes that may seem boring for our time away from the kids, but it was like going back to our "roots." When Jared and I were friends and wanted to date but waited (you can ask me for that story another day), we always ended up at the same coffee shop in Denton trying to study. Sad to say the coffee shop is gone, but after almost 11 years as a couple we still love reading and chatting at coffee shops. This is our favorite the past few years: Roots Coffeehouse www.rootscoffeehouse.com 

  I love a quote I found on the website one day: "Friends don't let friends drink bad coffee."  All in all, everyone go check this place out! They just opened up a new location in Highland Village.

 Thank you Grammie & PopPop for watching the kids!
