Rock Climbing

The last couple of weeks have flown by so here are a couple of pics to update on what we've been up too.  The biggest activity that we've done is basketball and rock climbing.  Brex loves to climb the rock wall while the kids have their basketball practices and games.  Elle will climb with him when Trey is playing.  Both have made it to the top multiple times and they don't seem to get tired of it.  Brex did have a little bit of help getting to the top but he can get about 3/4 of the way up on his own.  We've also gone swimming, the park and even got a trip down to Overton in over the holiday break.  This week will be the last week for basketball than we get a month off(we will be building the derby car for scouts) before we head back into the soccer season than right into baseball and softball. Whew that sounds like a lot :)

In other news the kids have been cruising in school.  Both Trey and Elle have reached their goal of 3500 minutes of reading for school and will get to go to the party for Reading like a star. Brex is learning more and more every day and tells us he's a "genius"! That kid cracks me up! Well that's the update from our crazy crew.

 Just fun pictures of the kiddos climbing, swimming, jumping and being silly.

Basketball

We have started basketball back up and the kids are having fun. It's keeping us busy for sure the only night that is free for us is Thursdays. Trey has been training for his 5k that he's doing in feb. He wants to beat his time that he got last year. Last year he was sick the whole week before the race and he still ran it 28 minutes. Think what he can do being healthy :).
Elle is having a blast with basketball. She's got a natural talent for it.  She's still getting use to the game as this is her first year but it doesn't stop her from playing hard.
Brex is well he's Brex. He's Treys daily shadow and loves to do whatever Trey is doing. He had swim day a couple weeks ago and on Tuesday he got to go to the museum and see all the animals. I asked him how his trip was and he said "we couldn't touch the animals. We got to touch the animals at the farm" he was disappointed that he couldn't touch them, silly boy.  Also he keeps telling us that he's 5 and can't wait to be 8 like Trey. I'm telling you he loves his big brother.
