Bella and Ella had a great time together... So did Brooke and I, and Matt and Jeremy....Old school good times.  Man, did we laugh......I love it and I miss it.
Oh, and Matt DID winn the 2011 Valdez Mountain Man King of the Hill.

Kitty Cat and 120 races

Once again it was time for the Frosty Fever races!!  Normally they have Kitty Cat and 120 races but due to our lack of snow and too much slush, just the 120's could make it around the track.  So....Bella shared her machine with Kailyn and they both raced!  Here are some of the numerous pics we took.....Bella also mastered the "wave".  Thanks to half of the Valdez Fire Dept. for being there to cheer the girls on.  Priceless I tell you!!

One VERY proud daddy....

Bella and Kailyn

Best friends.

Not a bad start.....

The "wave".  She had her own cheering section... And LOVED it!

The best race of the day... The dads!!!

We left the races and went right home to ride bikes!!

River likes bike rides too!

Dancing Leprachauns at the Library

As many of you know, Isabella is an arts and crafts junkie. So, when we found out the museum was having an art show at the library.... WE GOT EXCITED!!  Mrs. Banner picked out their leprachaun art projects from school to be displayed.....  Not an art critic myself, but I do have to say with mother's pride....Bella's was beautiful!!
