Happy Easter!!


Here are a few pictures from Easter this past weekend!!  Jason's Aunt DeeDee and Uncle Kevin so graciously hosted a big crowd at their house for Easter.  We all had a wonderful time!!  The boys had a blast playing with their cousins.  They got to swim in the pool and a BIG Thanks to Uncle Brad for jumping in saving Caelum as he stepped of the ledge inside the pool and fell in the "deep end."  My heart and gut sunk, but thankfully Brad beat me in and pulled him out.  The kiddos were able to do an Easter egg hunt and we came home with more candy...Jason and I are quickly bringing most of the candy to work, to get it out of the house!!  


Thank you Teddy and Gramm's for our gifts!




The Cousins watching Frozen
And here is a picture of Caelum....in the middle of the Easter Egg Hunt he had to go potty so he stopped where he was and let it rip!  

BIG Celebrations in this Wells House!!

The week before last,  Jason headed to NC for a week long "interview!"  It was a very nerve wrenching interview...I was very nervous for him. But he had to do a PT Test, Psych test/evaluations, and meet before a board of 10 people.  There was way more involved than just those things but was a very intense screening process.   But of course Jason came out on top and was offered a position with them.  A BIG Congrats to Jason for getting accepted for his new job!!  I can not say  a whole lot about what he will be doing, as I am unsure as it is all hush, hush!  But he will be doing what he did on his last deployment and will be with a Joint command.  As one of my coworkers told me..."it is a very Elite group and he is a real GI-Joe, the real deal!"  Too funny!  We are very proud of him and excited for our next move and to see what all God has in store for us!!  We will be heading to Fort Bragg, NC around the middle of December.  He has to take a class the first six months he is there, which starts January 15, but they want him there and settled in December so he can focus on his class!



 Our Welcome Home/Congrats Dada sign and gifts!!!

 These last 3 I had to put in of the boys as they make me laugh so much!!!




Also another big celebration over the past couple weeks, is that Caelum is finally potty training.  I was planning on waiting until the end of May so I have a long weekend to spend with him and keeping him on the potty, but he and Jason took the initiative and he started.  Still working on #2, but will hopefully come with time.   But he is doing great and his teachers are very impressed at how well he has done and how young he is!!  Guess it helps when Big Bro and Dada and always using the potty!

Birthday Party Fun

Yesterday we went to a birthday party for one of the boys good friends from school, Peyton.  He is in Caelum's class.  His older brother, Rylan is in Kerrick's class and they are best buds.  Peyton's birthday party was at Fiesta Farm near our house.  It was fun times!! Kerrick was all about riding the horse until it came time to and Rylan already went, so only Caelum rode the horse!  Here are a few pictures from the party!

Week of Fun!!

This past week was the Week of the Young child, so everyday Kerrick's class had an activity planned.

Here are a few pictures from this week.


Also, every month, Kerrick has a project due for his class.  This month was a recycled bug...so here is Kerrick's recycled bug.  We asked him what kind of bug he wanted to do and he kept saying a Pink and Purple Butterfly....so he got a butterfly but not necessarily an pink and purple one.  He was so proud of it and carried it around all morning at school and was showing anybody who walked by.  Too Funny!!

Also they started swim lessons this week, so there are a couple of pictures from then.

Sorry not the best quality as I was using my phone and am reminded by Jason how poor of quality of pictures is takes!!  LOL



The first day was mix match day!
