A Friday Trip to the Zoo

The zoo is very sneaky about announce things like baby polar bears making their public debut. But, I still found out and so Nick, Austin and I rushed to the zoo to see her! Only to find her taking a nap with her mom...But we still got to see the baby polar bear!



The chameleon was having a fun time walking around. He was a different color than normal, which was cool to see. 


And we almost saw Baru get out of the water. Never once have we seen that crocodile out of the water. But he got close, this time.

Field Trip to the Farm

Ben's class took a field trip to a local farm for their end of the year trip. Ben LOVED the farm. He talked about it for weeks. He still asks to go back and see all the animals. He got to play with baby chicks, milk a cow, and go for a barrel ride.

And It's Straight to Bed...

The boys 'decorated' the house for Adam while he was on his fishing trip. They went straight to bed after washing all the dirt off the side of the house...



Some Adorable Pre-K School Pictures!

Nick's Spring Pre-K school pictures. He picked out his outfit. He really wanted to wear the lightening bolt tie because it made him 'look cute'.

Suffering Though Soccer

We only had one day of cold and rain for soccer. And it was a lot of rain. Nick and I huddled under the big tent umbrella while Ben had no qualms about playing in the pouring rain.

It was Ben's last lone muffins with mom. Next year he has to share it with Nick. We actually had some yummy doughnuts and Ben showed me around his classroom.

Spring Soccer

Ben played CYO soccer this spring with St. Rose. He was so excited to play with his friends! He did a good job and learned some new skills. It was a short season due to weather, but still a fun season!

The TC Ringleader

Lexi - the TC ringleader, megaphone and all. All those boys following her directions. That's a lot of power for an 8 year old.

Of Course It Was going to Snow in April

We got a pretty serious amount of snow the first Friday in April. We ended up with about 7 inches of snow. The kids had lots of fun playing in the last snowfall of the year, which was also the largest snowfall of the year.

Jump for the Love of Spring Break

To expend some spring break energy, I took the boys to Sky Zone to jump around for a bit. Always a good time!
