The following was written by Shane for a classroom assignment-
Casey decided to play soccer this season....he hasn't played since he was four years old and he somehow got placed on a team of 13-14 year olds. The team finished with a record of 6-3 and took home First Place medals!!! He was DEFINITELY the most improved player of the season and ALWAYS tried his hardest and never gave up. The final three games Casey actually got to play goalie.....and he NEVER once let a goal in during all three games!!! I was soooo nervous sitting on the sidelines watching, but of course he did great! You should of seen his impressive footwork and ballhandling during the final game! Gotta love the neon green uniform too!!! Great job Casey!
Is this cute or what? Cooper and Cody were trying so hard to jump in the tub with Drew and he was loving every second of it! I wish you all could of heard the giggles that went along with this!!! 
OMG!!! Casey is already 12 years old and I can remember the day he was born like it was yesterday! But ask me what I did yesterday and I most likely can't remember. Too funny!
Lately when I try to take pictures of Drew this is usually the look he gives me! Nice, huh? Notice what it says on the TV behind him.....PRICELESS!!! Gotta love all that drool running all the way down his belly too! 
Ryan looks all cute and serious here in this picture.....but if you knew the real Ryry we live with each and every day you'd all be surprised. He's a stinkin' little monster child and the most stubborn human being on the face of the earth!!! Seriously! When I was taking this picture he absolutely 100% refused to look at the camera. But look at the cute picture I got out of that argument!!! Someday he'll learn that Mommy always wins!
We did have visitors for Easter and I don't have any pictures to prove it!!! Ken and Payton came to stay with us for the week and to look for their new home here in Arizona!!! We hope they enjoyed their stay with us in our REALLY, REALLY loud house!!! =) We seriously thought they'd reconsider living anywhere near us after seeing how crazy our family life is. I bet they both went home totally exhausted from just watching how much goes on around here with all these kids. But we really enjoyed having them here and we all are counting the days until they move here. I can't tell you how many times I hear "when is P moving here?" The boys are going to totally love having their "big sister" around! 
Cubs Spring Training is only about 20 minutes from our house so during Spring Break we went to a game with some of our neighbors (aka Diamondback fans!). It was a great day.....sunny and 80 degrees and best of all the Cubbies won!!! We sat on the lawn in the front row directly behind Alfonso Soriano which the boys thought was soooo cool!!! Can't wait to see the Cubs and Diamondbacks in the playoffs!!!
On two separate days, Ryan actually feel asleep like this.....check out his hand still inside his snack bowl!!! 
I wish I could say this is a posed picture and that they actually listened to what we told them.....but it's totally not.....the dogs both lay around like this together on their own!!!
