This and that in the Gates household.....

This is for Mom and Erin- my new kitchen table and sassy chairs! Love it!

Hudson's first basketball game! Juston took them to a Michigan State basketball game and he loved it! Actually, when I asked him what he loved about it he said "the girls!" (meaning the cheerleaders!) And for several days afterwards, he would ask me if "the girls" could come over! 

Our first trip of the year to the park! Still bundled up- but we had to play outside for a little bit!

Hudson found some mud in our backyard.  This was the first time he has really shown any interest in the tractor and playing in mud! He stayed outside as long as he could stand the cold to dig in the mud!

This was the scene after breakfast this morning that melted my heart- both boys playing side by side- Hudson playing his drums as Hamilton watched so intently offering an occasional smile or giggle! It was absolutely a moment for me as a mom!

And lastly, here is a picture of me for all you people who say I am not in the pictures enough! :)
