MAKE-A-WISH RODEO

Our family was invited to go to the Fort Worth Stock Show rodeo with Make-a-Wish.  A wish kid from Minnesota wished to come to the Stock Show and we got to be part of the welcoming committee.  The kids were so excited about attending the show!  Unfortunately, when I got home from school, Maggie was burning up.  A quick trip to the doctor revealed sickness that required antibiotics so she had to miss all of the fun.

Sweet girl was miserable

Waiting for Tyler to arrive

Grace is guaranteed to be found in Lauren's lap!

These kids love their Lauren!!

We had dinner in a museum - which was super cool.  One of the things in the museum was the ability to go for a bull ride.  Here are the kids riding a bull!

FEBRUARY 2015 WRAP UP

We delivered treats to our favorite heart unit for Amazing Little Hearts

We took a trip to the ER for a high fever.

Mommy had gallbladder surgery....and feels so much better!!

Bennett had a surprise guest at school

We got snowed/iced in!

MARVEL LIVE

In February, we got to attend Marvel Live when it came to Dallas.  Gigi gave this to the kids as their Christmas present.  My little superhero lover was in HEAVEN!!  We had fantastic seats and had such a great time!!

HOPEKIDS BALLET CLASS

We love HopeKids and all the fun things we get to attend with them!  The kids had a great time at the ballet class with Texas Ballet Theater.

MAW JANUARY ART PARTY

How much do we love Make-a-Wish????  My kids love going to art parties!!

UPWARD

Bennett asked us if he could please play basketball this year.  We are all about letting the kids try new things....but Bennett had never played basketball before.  And, at age 10, that could have been problematic.  However, we were told about a great program called Upward.  When we went to sign up, the lady told us that they had cheerleading too.  You know what that means....we had to sign up for cheer!  

Bennett and Grace were both blessed with great coaches.  Bennett's coach was amazing with teaching the fundamentals of basketball.  His team only lost one game - the game Bennett missed with pneumonia.  Coincidence??    

They are already asking to participate again next year.  Maggie wants to cheer with her sister and she will be old enough to cheer.  Looking forward to another great season!!
