Asher turns Five!!!

This year Asher wanted a Monster House party.

Aunt Jenni was kind enough to appease him with a fun Monster House cake!

Thanks Aunt Jenni!

For Asher's birthday he got a new bike!

All his friends are showing how old he is.

FIVE!

Battle of the Books

In April Shira participated in Battle of the Books.

Her team took 4th place, which is pretty impressive considering

she was in 1st grade competing with 2nd graders!

We are too cheap to buy a battery for this car,

so the kids have to take turns pushing each other around.

And they still love it!

We put Shira's hair up in curlers!

Start of the Iditarod

In March we took the kids to see the start of the Iditarod. It was a super chilly & sunny day. The kids had a blast watching all the dogs go by pulling their sleds.

Magic in Joy School & Valentine's Day

I'm attempting to update my blog.....so here goes.

We had some fun in Joy School with a magic show. I had fun dressing up and impressing little minds with simple magic. The kids were so fun to watch!

For Valentine's day the kids helped me make a heart fruit cookie for David.

We all got to enjoy eating it up.
