We had a fun girls trip to Great Wolf Lodge! Although Nana and I wished the water was a little bit warmer, the girls didn't seem to mind. They loved all the slides and especially liked the wave pool!

Gamecocks Baseball

We spent last weekend in Columbia and had lots of fun with all the Rogers. We went to the baseball game on Saturday night. The girls loved playing on the playground, eating yummy food and learning about how to play the game. We almost left early, but luckily stayed to see the Gamecocks win!

St. Patricks Day Weekend

The Alley girls love holiday traditions.

Every year we make leprechaun traps together. 

(It's silly, but fun and creative)

Wearing their Green

 Mim and Booker came for a visit on Saturday. We had lots of outside fun in the beautiful weather (a golf cart ride, St. Patrick's Day party, Play-Doh fun, basketball and listening to the Gamecocks baseball game).

 On Sunday we were back to cold and rainy, so we spent all day inside (reading books, playing games and watching shows). We loved having Mimi and Booker here and are looking forward to seeing all the Rogers in a few weeks!

Circus Fun!

Grace has been reading and learning all about the circus at school. 

So when the circus came to town it was perfect timing...

There was so much to see at the circus, wish I would have gotten 

a shot of the look on their faces as they watched all the amazing acts. 

They loved the tightrope walkers and the 

woman that was shot out of the cannon the best.

Thanks for the tickets Nana and Papa, wish we

 could have been in NY at the circus with the rest of the family.

Grace's class put on a circus 

performance and it was the cutest show ever!

She was a tightrope walker int the show...

Look, No Training Wheels!

We came home from school on Monday and I decided that it was time for Grace to try to ride her bike without training wheels again. We tried it over the summer and she just wasn't quite ready. This time she was determined! After about 30 minutes of practicing my back ached, so we had to take a break until daddy got home. Daddy came home and in minutes she was riding by herself! I have to think that I did all the leg work, but he sure did have the magic touch. 

Proud Daddy

Such a big girl!

Little sister was feeling left out, 

so I had to take some pics of her too...
