Lily the Singer

The Tool School and Scaredy Bugs

We went to Fontelle Forest yesterday to enjoy the weather. Skyler and I had a great time. Lily did not. She has a sudden, debilitating phobia for any kind of bug. She was miserable! Skyler was in rare form though. He was acting the way he used to act all of the time. I am not sure where this "old Skyler" went, but I sure do hope he stays around for awhile, because he was VERY enjoyable to be around. I hope you all enjoy his little lesson on the use of tools!

Yes, these are my kids

Family Fun Day -French Day

We had a French Family Day on Saturday and it was sooo yummy. We started the day off with strawberry cream cheese crepes. For lunch we had croissant sandwiches and for dinner we pigged out! We had wine, cheese and crackers, a small spring salad, French bread, green beans, chicken and mushrooms with Gruyere cheese and for dessert we had homemade eclairs and cream puffs. We each colored the French flag and a French map and used them for placemats and we spoke a little bit of French, but considering we don't know too much, we didn't get real far on it. It was a fun and fattening day for all!

Skyler's first basketball practice and concert

Here are some pics and a video from Skyler's first basketball practice. It is very comical to watch these kindergarteners play basketball. God bless these people for volunteering to be coaches! The video is from this school music program. It was also very comical and it is amazing any one can spend the time to teach these kids this kind of stuff, because once they have an audience, boy they really ham it up!

A hunting we will go

Here's the little monster with his extremely loose tooth and with no tooth.

Family Fun Night #7 Camp out

We went camping in our family room the other night. The kids loved it! We ate dinner on a blanker on the floor and then we went to a drive inn movie in the basement. When that was over, we roasted marshmallows and made smores and then fell asleep in our sleeping bags by the fire. The kids had a blast, the adults hurt pretty bad in the morning!
