Art Show

Last night, we went to an art show at the kid's school. These pictures only show one of the projects that each one of them had displayed. The school also had face painting, done by the 6th graders (yes, that is Laura Donaldson), and oragami. We had a fun time and saw some amazing art!

Heritage Park in Dallas

I accompanied Annie on a field trip to Heritage Park in Dallas (a town made up to look like the 1800 and 1900's). She and her friends, Kelsi and Riley, thought it was pretty cool. They were asked the question if they would like to live in today's time or the 1900's. Annie wants to live in the 1900's because of the beautiful houses (she thought everyone lived in one like the one she is pictured in). When I reminded her that that house didn't have an inside toilet, hot showers, no refrigerators, televisions, phones, etc... she kinda changed her mind. She now wants to live in the 1900's (so she can live in a beautiful house) but with today's technology. Nice try. Also, she asked me if I wore a bonnet like we saw in one of the houses to school! Hello, I don't think so. I did tell her that grandma May had those books, she thought that was pretty cool.

Game Day

The girls performed in a church production called Game Day. It was a program based on our VBS theme for this year. This little choir did pretty awesome!

Softball, baseball and t-ball are in full swing

Saturdays are spent at the field (depending on weather of course). We love this time of year. Mike is busy helping coach the three older ones teams, and I get to sit back and enjoy the games.

Happy Easter!

Coloring Easter eggs

As always, the kids enjoyed coloring eggs. Mikey has become much better at it, and no longer plops the eggs into the dye. We really missed grandma and papa May's help though!

Spousal abuse?

Mike filed a report to the police officer next door for spousal abuse stating that his wife was making him mow in the snow (ok, it was just with John) ! It wasn't like it snowed the whole time, or like the snow was even sticking. I do have to admit I did guilt him into it, but it wasn't snowing at the time. Don't worry, he survived and a mug of hot chocolate was waiting for him when he was done (see, I'm not such a mean wife). By the way, like our John Deere?

Annie and her friend, Kelsi, sang a Point of Grace song for the GA (girl's in action) talent show. They have the sweetest voices and did an excellent job!

Amanda and Laura wrote a script on how to become a Christian and did it for their GA talent show. Good job girls!

Happy Birthday Bud!

Matthew was excited to get his new basketball and hoop, now if daddy and mommy could only find the time to put it up.
