Roesner's, Roesner's...where are the Roesner's????

Yes, I know, I know....the blogging thing has kind so fallen off....but, to my defense...I upload pictures to Facebook like crazy. Of course, you don't always get a story with Facebook. I hope that in this new year, I will be better about blogging. Crawford is finishing up his first basketball season and we are on to baseball...woohoo!! Almost to the best season ever :-) I will be adding pictures soon of all of our winter things we have been doing. Cash has a big day coming up soon, a circumcision. Prayers please!!! And Craw man is reading like a champ and getting ready to start the big kid books at school.

Cash's 1st 1st Birthday Party

Since we were spending NYE 2012-13 with the Roesner/Kacal crew, we thought we would throw in a first firest birthday party for Cash so that the family that lives in and around Houston could help us celebrate. We decided to do it NYE so that we could have two parties in one. It turned out to be loads of fun and lots of family time that we all enjoyed. People came and went through the night and Cash cleaned up pretty well in the present department. With a birthday being so close to Christmas, I had my doubts, but it ended up great. Here are a few from the night. '



 

 

Uncle Daniel and Aunt Katy ordered the cake for the party. We had a barnyard theme. The cake was wonderful!! Thanks Uncle D and Aunt Katy



 

 

Cash was not really digging the piggy hat that went along with his barnyard party. He kept pulling it off!!

 

Christmas Pics

 

 

This year, I decided that I would get some good Christmas pictures of the boys and send the out on a Christmas card (which I promise myself to do every year, I even get as far as getting the home, then forget or get to busy to send them out.) So, off to Miss Kirbie's we go. I know she can always get the best smiles out of my boys. They love her. So, we took some at her house in her studio she had set up and they turned out great!!

Soccer 2012

This was Crawford's second year of soccer. Last year, we were on a team of mostly Trinity kiddos and had Trinity parents as the coaches, so we felt at home. When we went to the firt practice this year, and saw that the team was nothing like last years, I was worried. So worried, I wanted to pull him off the field and say better luck next year kiddo. Against my better judgement and a lecture from Officer Roesner, we decided to let him play. We started off the season like the Bad  News Bears, but towards the end of the season, they looked like a team. Crawford scored four goals in his next to the last game and one in the last game of the season. He made new friends and never seemed to care that he was not on a team filled with Trinity kiddos. He really seems to like soccer and is pretty darn good at it (if I must say so myself), and I am sure we will be back for more next year. Now, on to basketball....yikes!!

Boston, Mass

 

Jason and I are slowly but surely checking off our 50 state challenge. We recently went to Boston for a weekend of Red Sox and history. It was AMAZING!!! We absolutely loved it. The weather kinda was a mess, but we survived. I missed the kiddos and felt a little guilty sitting at the Red Sox game without Craw man, but it was nice to spend some time with Jason since hutning season has officially started. We got to attend two Red Sox games, go to most of the historical things around Boston, shop and, of course, EAT!! We even went to the "Cheers" restraunt where they had all the things from the show.

From the Catholic Church we went in and toured, it was absolutely gorgeous and the stations of the cross were in color, so beautiful!!



Crawford goes to Kindergarten

Oh my goodness, can it already be here? Seems like we just brought home my sweet little man from the hospital and he is in KINDERGARTEN!! This is crazy!!!!! The good thing about this is...he has an awesome teacher. We are blessed with Mrs. Simpson this year and I could not be happier. She is great and Crawford loves her. He is not too crazy about the homework that he has, but he loves swimming time and Chapel. He calls it "big kid chapel."

fast times on Roesner lane...

I don't think I have ever been so ready for summer in my entire life! I am ready to sleep (as late as Cash will let me), do nothing, and enjoy my little family as much as I can. It seems like we have been running, running, running since Cash man was born. With tball season half way over and school ending in about 4 weeks, I am trying to remember where I left my brain. (If you guys find it, please send it to me!!) This is the busiest time of the year at school with all the programs and end of the year testing and all that fun stuff. But, we have got to enjoy some fun time with the boys and that is what matters. Crawford has his spring show coming up and I just registered him for (Oh my goodness) Kindergarten!!!! I think I may have a nervous breakdown next August 22nd. I can't believe my baby is that big. We have an exciting summer of swim lessons, beach vacations, and a trip to D.C. with daddy planned. Stay tuned for more crazy fun on Roesner lane. :)
