Thursday, October 30, 2014. Halloween-ing, Continued. . . Wednesday continued Halloween festivities with the library party for the girls in the morning and the midweek church party for the boys in the evening. The story time kids all dressed up for a fun morning at the library. It's always interesting trying to get this many kids to actually stand still long enough for a picture. . . Then they had some yummy snacks and a cute craft to make. Monday, October 27, 2014. Let the Halloween Parties Begin! Perfe...

Dwyer family: School's Out for Summer!
http://calvinandoliver.blogspot.com/2015/05/schools-out-for-summer.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2015. School's Out for Summer! The end of another school year - Wow! How did that happen so fast? It really seemed to sneak up on me this year, but then again, I probably think that every year. Today was the last time the bus would pull all the way up our driveway to pick up Violet for afternoon preschool. It always amazes me how well Miss Debbie can maneuver a full-sized bus. Of course, she's been doing it for 34 years! The boys had their yearbook signing day, and boy was that fun!

Tuesday, September 30, 2014. How Can She Be 5? Her party may have been over the weekend, but my Violet Joy's actual birthday is today! She celebrated today with her school friends. Miss Katie placed the birthday hat on her head and they all counted as they placed 1-2-3-4-5 candles on top! Once the 5 candles were on, Miss Vi was ready to go hit the cupcakes! She got them all passed out to her friends. . . And didn't even wait for the singing to finish before she dug in. Nice 'stache, kid. Things like go t...

Dwyer family: April 2015
http://calvinandoliver.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. Baseball practices are now in full swing with games beginning in just a couple of short weeks. Calvin's practices were scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and being the smart man he is, my husband (and Oliver's coach) scheduled the younger boys' practice immediately following. We have had some b-e-a-utiful spring evenings to play at the park while big brother(s) were at practice! Violet's all-time favorite playground equipment is the tire swing. She LOVES to slide!

Dwyer family: Happy Birthday to Russ!
http://calvinandoliver.blogspot.com/2015/08/happy-birthday-to-russ.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Happy Birthday to Russ! We celebrated the Best Guy in the world this week with Daddy's birthday! As we did last year, we took the family to watch the Royals play. Leaving straight from church, it rained on us the whole way there, and I was nervous that the game might get rained out. Thankfully, the rain stopped a few minutes before game time and didn't start back up. The view of the stadium and cloudy skies as we arrived:. And the boys got to meet KayCee! It was Star Wars Day,...

Dwyer family: Ozarks Family Tradition
http://calvinandoliver.blogspot.com/2015/08/ozarks-family-tradition.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. Our annual weekend at the Lake of the Ozarks with the Big Deterding family was a blast, as always! Once again, we were spoiled by my cousin Kristol and her husband David with the use of their gorgeous lake house. And they had a new toy this year, a 24' x 6' Chill Mat! This was the ultimate toy for the kids as they played "King of the Mountain" for hours. We did kick the big kids off periodically to let the little ones have a turn on the big mat. Some relaxing at the outdoor kitche...

Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Final Hurrah at SDC. For a special treat at the end of the year, Grandma Cheryl took Calvin, Oliver, Tyler, Brynn and me to Silver Dollar City. We stayed at one of our favorite hotels, the Barrington. Our first evening was relaxing with some pizza and swimming. Grandma was brave enough to join the crazy kids in the hot tub. I've never been to SDC after Christmas, and I loved getting a little bit more of Christmas before the season is over. A very crisp, clear winter day!

For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Psalm 100:4-5. What a great Thanksgiving weekend we are finishing up! After dinner, Sydney and Violet treated us to some music on the piano. . . While the boys all watched some KU basketball. (No football on the TV this Thanksgiving! We ladies went ...

The weather was so much nicer this year than the past couple, and the turnout was fantastic! There were hundreds of cool cars to look at and the whole town came out for the occasion. There were SO many yummy treats this year; Calvin couldn't decide which ones he wanted to bring home! Cindy and me with our special girls! What a fun evening - I just love our town! Aunt Dana called...

Dwyer family: June 2015
http://calvinandoliver.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 22, 2015. The boys were excited to see a new state, so we made sure our vacation took us through Wyoming and its capitol city of Cheyenne. We love visiting other state capitols - the buildings are always so beautiful and unique! Another Indian that the boys were eager to check out. The gorgeous domed ceiling. . . And the Senate chambers with its equally-beautiful stained-glass ceiling. The capitol building in Cheyenne didn't disappoint! And we got to see the impressive snow melt and the resu...
