General Patton

Ian's class put on a wax museum for the rest of the school and parents came too. He had to read a biography of someone he was interested in and then dress up as that person and have a little prepared speech to give when he was "turned on" at the wax museum. All Mrs Yakir's class did great but I was really proud of Ian and how good he looked as General Patton!

Out like a LION...

March was beautiful here when it started.  We had 60 degree days and my jacket was safely hung in the closet for the year.  But we've had to dig out the hats and mittens and coats again because this is what we woke to this morning.

At least we got a 2 hour delay from school and the kids got to wake up and enjoy some playtime in the snow since we actually got some.

Evan starts to swim

After watching Evan swim in the pools over Christmas break we decided we needed to start him on swimming lessons again so he can learn how to breathe better so he can get faster. Well today Evan started swimming lessons at our health club!

Zoo photos

Went to the zoo with a friend with our big old cameras in tow to take some pictures!

And now that I was there with my big 70-200mm lens I understand why all those people where there the day before with big 400mm lens.  I didn't think I needed on until after I was there and didn't have one!!

First Reconciliation

Evan and the other kids in his second grade class made their first reconciliation today at St Anthony's. Evan was so excited and ran to the front to be first!

I asked him if he was ready and he told me he had a list!! I asked him what was on it (because holy cow -- a list?!) and he told me he couldn't tell me because I wasn't a priest!
