What have we been doing since Colorado?

Truthfully I know we have been very busy but I have no idea why I was not taking pictures of it. Too busy I guess. Well we were in the thick of the Wrestling season for Cameron and doing a ton of other fun stuff of course. I did manage to capture a few cute pics. In February Cameron got to try out his first real experience snowboarding at Sunburst and the twins did some tubing with dad. Kenzie got left out of the fun this time. She got her own play date by Grandma and Grandpa Rettler!

Clayton is in front, Cal and Cameron - ready for the cold!



Cameron asked to bring his friend Cali from school. Just to clarify - NO DATE!!! Just a friend.


Mom thinks he looks like a pro!

Lucky Cameron and Cali's friend Nick happened to be there to save the day. Lesson learned no taking 2 - 10 year olds snowboarding that have no idea what they are doing and not putting them into lessons. Nick saved the day and taught Cameron to snowboard. Cali switched over to skiing and she did GREAT.



So as I said before most of February and now March has been WRESTLING. Cameron had a great season - He took 3rd at Regionals - which means he did not make it to state but man did that kid work hard this year again and did a FABULOUS job. We actually are wrapping up the end of his regular season with his final tournament this coming Saturday and he asked to join another club wrestling for Grecko Roman & Freestyle (Ringers in Milwaukee) which started this past Monday night. So while is regular wrestling is over he will be training with Ringers two nights a week till June. Then baseball will be in full swing, keeping both him and us running all the time.

Kenzie loving some wrestling!



Cameron gearing up!



Cameron READY TO GO!!


So we also have been making tough decisions around here. With the help of the twins teacher we have decided that it would be best for both of them not to move on to 5K next year yet. I struggled with this as they have made great friends in their current 4K class who will be moving on but it is best to give them the extra time they need. Sometimes I am sad about holding them back, other times I am sure we are doing the best thing for them. They have those dreadful summer birthday's and are already some of the youngest in their class so it will be fine but I am so fearful that next year they will be sad when their friends from this year are in 5K and they are in 4K again. I am sure the extra year will help them mature and on a selfish note I also get a little more time with them before they start school full days. Their teacher has done a great job starting to talk with them about needing helpers for next year and Calvin is very excited to play this role!!


Anyway they have been spending a lot of time with one of their good friends from class - Geyer!
Enjoying the early summer days!

Clayton, Calvin & Geyer



Kenzie also enjoying the early summer days!



What else is there? Ben's working way to much! He is dedicated to his job and I am very proud of him for that. I am actually getting back to a regular schedule and sticking to my 20 hours a week more and more. All the kids are growing to fast! The twins just started a little t-ball clinic and they will be doing a tennis class on Saturday's, I want to enroll Kenzie in dance but have not found what I want just yet, Cameron is wrestling his butt off and doing good in school. Can not believe that summer is almost here!! Hope you are doing well also!
