St. Patrick's Day!

The kids and I celebrated St. Patrick's Day as we usually do with a treasure hunt!

Posing with the green glasses!

Cuteness! 

Reading their first clue, Erik was up to go first this year.

Looking for clues in the dishwasher... 

Even Brian wore green for the holiday. 

We had an easy pizza dinner since we had Cub Scouts later that night. 

I made mint brownies for the Cub Scouts so I fed the little siblings the leftovers too!

Track Biking!

We helped our friend Shae learn to her bike the other weekend.  It only took her an hour to learn! 

Here is all 4 plus John coming down the track! 

Erik took the front! 

Erik with his stick sword! 

Daddy let everyone have their own fire stick.   

Okay Grandma Jill, unposed with no tongues for you! 

Fire play with Daddy.

Spring Weather

The kids and I enjoyed some warm dry weather.  It all started with Camden wanting to ride his bike.

Ella and her bike.

The next day Camden took me up on an offer to walk around the neighborhood and found a whip and something to hit! 

Airborne!  

Then we found some seed pods that crushed open when you tapped them. 

Camden rockclimbed a little bit the other day at a playplace. 

There was also some basketball playing...and sitting! 

More sitting. 

Finally some scooter riding. 

For the last 2 days the kids have asked to stay and play outside on the school's playground for an hour too!  I am exhausted!

Spring Church Concert

The kids got to sing in front of the church again this spring!  The kids sang 2 songs at both services, they were so cute!  The teacher had the kids do hand motions this time too. 

Luckily, the teacher put all 3 kids grouped together so I could get them all in one close up! 

The kids waiting on the stairs for the second showing.  Camden got to lead the line of kids in both times, a benefit of being the older kid.  Look how long Ella's hair has grown; she's in the white dress. 

The kids were too cute not to take some Spring photos of after service! 

We even scored a decent family photo too! 

And this unposed one is for you Grandma Jill! 

Best friends! 

Here is the recent bulletin board I made for the church.  It's the 10 commandments in pictures for the primary kids on the stairwell wall.

Happy Dr. Seuss Day!

Our school library set out this little display for Dr. Seuss' birthday.

I made this bulletin board right outside the library, I just noticed I misspelled Seuss!  

The twins didn't own any Seuss shirts to wear, so I made some with iron on transfer paper!  Erik was also earing his crazy socks for "Fox in Socks" book.

I made Ella a Seuss shirt too!  She had a cute red and white ponytail with ribbons in the back too!

Erik's teacher was decked out in a Cat in the Hat costume! 

Camden owns a Cat in the Hat shirt but wouldn't let me take a picture so I snuck one over my shoulder while we were walking home from school today!
