the Bear went over the Mountain

The first grade class did a cute play called "The Bear Went over the Mountain" There were lots of woodland animals involved in the play. Mia was assigned the role of fox. So we crafted a cute fox costume out of orange clothes and fake fur. She even had a cute furry tail.

She was so excited to be in the play and couldn't wait to be on "stage"

Art Show

Zane's artwork was chosen for display at the local Art festival. The middle school teacher was only able to choose 12 pieces from all of her art classes. Zane's was chosen to be entered in the Pop Art category. (Think Andy Warhol) We are very proud of him and are still wondering where he got his artistic skills?

Fishing at Grandma's House

While we were in Westlake for Easter the kids had a great time fishing in the pond behind Grandma's house.

David's been telling the kids about how he fished in this same pond many years while growing up. It's been a fun thing to do with the kids.

Obviously by the size of the catch you can see that it was a catch and release kind of day. But we still had a lot of fun!

1st place

Mia came in first out of 12 girls in her age group. The water was freezing so that might have sped her up.

Ty the snake charmer

Ty's friend Tate had a Snake birthday party. Complete with live snakes to hold and wrap around you. Everytime someone held this snake it would trry to climb up the curtains behind. I think the look on his face is priceless!
