More Birthday celebrations.......

Loving the new bike!!



The Birthday Cookie....my kids would much rather have a frosted cookie and than cake! Makes my job pretty easy!! Thank you Eileen's Cookies......




We were trying to teach Eli how to blow all the candles out at once with one big breath....he didn't get it!!


Finally....some snow to play in.....

We finally got some snow last weekend that was enough to warrant actually putting the snow gear on and heading out to play.....but it was all gone by the next day!!





Eli the Birthday Boy!!

Eli - 6 years old!! Time has gone by so fast, almost done with his first full year of school - Kindergarten!! He has become such a good reader, loves school....can never get enough lego time in and is so good about joining in with his sisters and agreeing to play all the "girly" things they make him play!!



 











 The Birthday Boy and his new BIKE!!




Upward Basketball - Ana...

Ana also played Upward basketball this year and was on a team with 1st and 2nd grade girls. She also improved so much from start to finish.....but I think Eric and I have realized that if our kids are going to play basketball we may need to invest in a basketball hoop!


They make a big deal at the start of the game and introduce each girl on each team!!








Upward Basketball - Eli....

Eli played Upward Kindergarten Basketball this winter.....he did a great job and his basketball skills have come a long way since day 1.......










100th day of school.....

Ana and Eli's classes both celebrated the 100th day of school this year.

Ana had to research a person that lived over a 100 years ago - her choice Betsy Ross. On the 100th day of school she had to dress like her and read her report.







Eli's class made trail mix with a 100 pieces of a small "something" that everyone brought in....they later spent time in the gym counting balloons by 10's....





A great 100th Day of School!!
