March Update (backwards...)

 

I clearly have a horrible memory because I got the pictures in reverse order AGAIN!

If someone has a blanket, you better believe Bella will be trying to snuggle you!

If you want to end up with completely random groceries in your cart, just bring a 5 year old with you to the grocery store.


Good old Google photos, sent me memories from when we first got Bella.  Crazy to see how much everyone changed in 3 years!


The boys were wanting to build forts downstairs and have sleepovers and kept asking when their cousins were going to come have sleepovers with them.  Can you find them in their little fort?


I've included a couple of Bryant's writing assignments, so I thought I should include a story that Garrett wrote.  I helped with the spelling and he wrote everything out.


With living in town and having so  many biking trails close by, we wanted to get bikes for the whole family.  We'd been looking for awhile, but everyone had the same idea to get bikes during COVID.  Travis and I went to Missoula for my eye appointment and checked out their bike shops and they were in the process of finishing building an adult small bike.  That size was so hard to find, so we jumped on it and surprised Bryant that night with a new bike.


Garrett's size was easier to find.  Since he recently got rid of his training wheels, we wanted to get him a bigger, better bike and this one is like a transition to a mountain bike.  It doesn't have gears, but it does have a hand brake and a brake when you pedal backwards.  That way he can get used to the hand brake and we can trade it in when he's ready for a mountain bike with gears.


He also wanted a bell on his bike and picked out one that looked like Bella on it.


Fun at the park





Garrett wanted to practice at lacrosse open gym while Bryant was playing


I got a new pair of glasses, so the boys wanted to try them on and see what they looked like

Bryant expressed interest in learning how to play the guitar.  We went to a local music store and found a good deal on an electric guitar...and then ended up with an amp...and then Garrett felt like he needed something, so we got a ukulele too.  Lacrosse ended up being more of a commitment than we had originally thought, so we don't have Bryant signed up for lessons yet.  And right now, Garrett strums on his ukulele a lot more than Bryant plays his guitar.



We also got a larger fish tank since Bryant's feeder goldfish from several years ago, keep growing bigger and bigger and need new tanks.
