Superbowl and Katelyn's Basketball

So, I know I'm a little late posting Superbowl pictures, but still had to add them cause I thought our cupcakes turned out pretty darn cute. Nikosha went to a cake decorating class the day before and all of my kids love to watch cake decorating videos on YouTube, so we thought this would be a good time to test our skills. These are actually cupcakes. (Couldn't really tell, could ya?). For those of you who don't know, Nate's a huge Pittsburgh Steelers fan, so the Superbowl ended up being kind of a sad day for us...but the cupcakes were still good. Plus I made a new Enchilada Nacho recipe that was super yummy. Nate kept saying, "The Superbowl isn't about the food, it's about the game." But the food was the best part of that game (especially since it was fast Sunday).

This was Katelyn's first year playing basketball. She was pretty timid at first but once she got more confident she did great. She even scored two baskets! Plus, she's a fast little thing and that definitely helps. And my personal opinion...pretty dang cute out on the court!! Isn't her new haircut cute? I love her face with short hair but Nate likes it long so we go back and forth. Katelyn doesn't really care. She's just happy with whatever!

Trip to Nebraska

Nikosha and I got to go to Nebraska to go visit my sister and her family. We had so much fun! Nikosha felt like a little mommy there. My sister, Jenny, has 4 kids that are 5 and younger, the youngest being 2 months. Nikosha probably spent about 90% of the time holding baby Parker and the rest of the time playing with the other 3 kids. She loved it and Jenny and I got to spend a ton of much needed time talking and hanging out together. We got to go to 2 different children's centers and go eat lunch with Remi at her school and Blake even spent his day off watching kids so that Jenny and I could go play a game of tennis. We also got to go to an indoor waterpark while we were there (I guess we never got any pictures of that, though). Nate even flew out and stayed for a day and then flew back with us. Blake just finished dental school and he is currently doing his residency for the Air Force. That's why he's wearing his cool uniform in the picture with Nikosha. We're excited to find out where they're going to be next year so we can go visit them again!
