Easter 2009

Easter 2009 was such a great weekend!! We started by dressing up for Saturday night service and then going to the McCord Barn for a yummy lunch, Easter egg hunt, and coloring eggs. Then off to the Pongratz Family Easter for Pizza!!

Spring Break

We had a great Spring Break. We went to the Children's Museum with Tylo and Conno, Conner Prairie, Bounce Planet and Chuck E Cheese with the neighbor friends. It ended up being a fun and enjoyable week!! Buildin' a boat...
The Carousel ride with all three Pongratz Kids...
This was so cute...The P was reading a book to Conno
This is the first time I've seen these two sat still this long together
Silly...Silly...Silly
Scary...
Chuck E Cheese was an absolute zoo...so was the Children's Museum. It was Spring Break and everyone needed to get out of the house!!
The neighbor kids, waiving at Chuck E Cheese...
Bouncing together at Bounce Planet





March Madness...

On St Patty's Day we went downtown to the Parade. St Patty's Day is also GGMA's B-day. So all her girls got to spend the morning together in the BEAUTIFUL sunshine! We celebrated GGMA's B-day the night before at a fun restaurant that gives us the whole back room so the girls can run and we can eat ;)...look at this precious peach!!
Uncle Steve and Grammy doing a little ring around the rosie...
Caught the love birds mid-bite. They were celebrating their Anniversary this night too!!
Uncle Cecil and GGMA

Precious!!!!

I just had to share!!! I am having a very proud Mommy moment of the P and her Daddy!!
While I was at the Women's Discipleship Walk, Jason took this sweet picture that said on it "I am praying for you Mommy" and drove an hour and a half just in time for me to see before I shared my story!! First of all, it was pretty awesome of my husband to do that and secondly what else can I say...the picture says it all!!!!!

Valentine's Day Ode....

We feel so comfortable with our neighbors so much that we decided to spend Valentines Evening together at one of the neighbor's houses. There are three couples...each having one child that are all within 6 months of one another and one neighbor just made an addition to their family 6 weeks ago. So this is what we like to call fun!! Three or so times a month, we walk to one another's houses, eat our favorite pizza, snack, have a little wine, play games and laugh and laugh, while the kids play, fight, tattle and tear up the place. It really is fun. Here the little valentines are eating yummy cupcakes and lovin' it...
Here they are starting the festivities with heart shaped balloons to throw at and fight over...BUTThe best memory we will take from this Valentine's '09 was talking with the ladies, reading over the directions to this really fun game we were going to play, eating and feeding our kids and then all the sudden looking over to see our husbands on the couches as quiet as can be watching Top Gun together. Now if that ain't love!!!!!!!!!! HA HA!!! The best part was at the end when Tom Cruise became the Top Gun, without any provoking or practice they all yelled with fist in the air, leaping out of their chairs..."YES!!!!" The three of us girls, startled, looked at each other and said, "No they did not just do that!!!" Can it get any better than that!!! For our husbands, probably not ;). Well, we love our neighbors. We have the best memories and this by far will go down as one of the most humorous Valentine's Days of all!!!!

And we thought we had a lot of snow this year...

This is my Grandma Keller's house in North Dakota. Last year, they were having a drought at this time and needed snow bad for the spring crops. This year...not so much!!! So these are pictures from my cousin's blog!! AMAZING!!! Yes, this is the top of a swing set ;)!!
My cousin's "little boy" in this picture just turned 5 this month!
