Ethan's Five....No just Three

 April Recap


Parent Night~ This year started out hard for our Noah, but he is doing so wonderful now.  A whole new kid. He is really good at math. 


Ashley has been a star student all year.  She is smart and obedient, never have any trouble with her.  Love her.  She talks all about her day when she gets home.  I know all the names of the kids in her class because she talks about everyone.  She is "practically perfect in every way!"  I want to be like her when I grow up.   

 

Luke's favorite course is science.  He has a great science teacher that does fun experiments with them.  They dissected an owl pellet and found a mouse in it.  


Crave is our new favorite breakfast destination.


Cinnamon Roll French Toast


 Biscuits and Green Chile Gravy


Kite Day at School~  Every year they have kite day where the parents get to come help fly kites during PE.  Luke was the only one that had enough wind to get our kite up.




Pinewood Derby 2014

Check out my cute table decorations.



Noah's first year racing.  He was so excited.



Both the boys placed.  Luke got first again and Noah ended up with third place.


They had some sibling races too.  Ashley used Luke's car from last year.  She had the fastest car.  


Easter was pretty relaxed.  We were bummed to not be in AZ with the Lingard Larson Clan.   We did the usual baskets, egg dyeing and backyard hunt. Which turned into a late night flashlight hunt.  Had to fit nap time into our late church schedule. 




Noah is stylin' in his new hipster glasses.  He doesn't really like to wear them yet.


The start of Ethan's birthday cake was a little scary. But scroll down and see that it turned out better then expected.  


We just did a family party at Chuck E. Cheese's 






This picture captures Ethan's slightly bossy attitude.  Noah's face makes me laugh, "I didn't touch him."


When you ask him how old he is he says five.  He won't be convinced otherwise. 



Before Kelsi moved she gave us Cohen's old power wheel.  We got a new battery and gave it to E for his birthday.  He was a little timid of it at first, but now he likes it.  


Stacey and I went to Las Cruces for a Zumba Dance Party. 




We laughed a lot that night.  Mostly after the night ended as we were headed to the car.  I saw a gazebo that reminded me of Sound of Music.  So of course I had to run out their and sing and dance and pretend my life is a musical.  "I am 16 going on 17..." Well, apparently I'm getting a little too old for such behavior because my first leap of the bench almost rendered me with a twisted ankle.  It made us laugh till we had headaches. 


Luke started a new obsession of basketball.  We put him on a city league and he loves it.  He probably with receive the "most improved' award after the season ends.  haha 


Ashley's hair is so amazing, I put it up in a bun and she looked so cute.  But not for long, she made me take it out as soon as we got home from church.  It was hurting her head.  She is the most beautiful tender-headed lady ever!
