Field Day!!!

Zane's Field Day was last Thursday. I love how he loves school!

I signed up to help out with the nail polish station. One little boy wanted his done and then all the little boys thought it would be oh so funny to have their nails painted as well...

Their field day consisted of playing catch with plastic balls, potato sack races, bubbles, paint, chalk, tattoos, and nail polish.

I wonder what they are scheming...

The other Zaine in his class!

Yummy pizza and popsicles!!

Here is the "Easter Bunny" Zane painted for his teacher! He was very proud of it!

Avery's Field Day was last Friday and was much more involved. Here they had a competition to see which group could fill up the bucket the fastest...

Avery's 2nd grade friend from church was in her rotation group!

They then took turns blowing and catching bubbles...

The other Avery in her class!

Then it was a long walk to the back fields for an obstacle course

Then it was playground/free time which apparently consists of gymnastics...

and monkey bars...

On to musical chairs

basketball, jump rope, and hula hoop rotation. Who taught my kid how to jump rope? She could criss-cross?!?!

Avery's was one exhausting field day! We celebrated the beginning of summer with some yummy icecream...

and apparently some love connections...

When it came down to making the move, he just couldn't do it. That's my boy!!!!

Yay for summer!!!

Avery is one excited little girl!

We Have Lost A Tooth!!
She can now join the "I've lost a tooth club" just before first grade ends! Oh how I remember that club and being one of the last to join as well. It just took a lose tooth, floss, and myself quickly yanking to get it to look like this... Barely attached to the skin

She gently tugged, and detached it became!

Her little tooth has been growing behind the baby tooth. Hopefully with the tooth now gone, it will start coming forward...

Much less gruesome than some. I'm starting to wonder if a hammer was involved in that one!??
Luckily, Avery told me to hide the tooth in my purse because she wanted to put it under her pillow when she got home (we were in Dallas and I had no cash)!! Some how the Tooth fairy forgot last night as well though- I think she must have been at the Thunder game. Hopefully tonight she will not forget her tooth fairy duties...

Spring Soccer 2011

We really enjoy watching the kids play sports, but its also nice when its over! I love having my Saturdays free again.
I'm so glad these kids have an awesome coach!

Zane improved so much this season. He got in the middle of the action more and had a lot more contact with the ball!

Go Wolves!

Soccer party at CiCi's!!
I tried to resist the gooey cinnamon buttery balls...but the gooey cinnamon won...3 times.

So proud of you buddy!!!

Is April Over?

It appears so...here's what we did...

Avery and Zane had a Fun Fair at their school. Zane was pretty amazed at their face painting skills...The sharks mouth was painted around his mouth. Impressive.
He requested the same thing at the OC egg hunt but it didn't quite end the same!!Who needs an Easter bunny when you can have cows?!

They made out well!

We also had a picnic with friend's

I'm the controlling wife that made Wes quit after one quick game! He was on his stronger chemo medicine and it seems every time he's on it, he wears himself out sick!! I'm looking forward to playing more once he's done (only one month left!!)

Avery's school had a field day at the Science Museum and it happened to be brain week. He's touching a real human brain! Wes and I went and were babysitting two kiddos that morning as well.
When I went to take Zane to the bathroom, Wes lost track of the 2 year old! When I came back he said "I can't handle this. There are too many people...it's exhausting..."

Avery stayed with her school and we didn't see her much but she preferred that!

My little sister graduated!!! Yes. It appears I'm a little tired. I almost fell asleep. But was excited for her none the less!

Even more excited were my parents who are done paying tuition!!!

My nephew had his 9th birthday party!

Neither Zane nor Austen knew they'd be seeing each other there. It was a surprise and boy were they excited...

The cousins!!!

This school year went by so fast! I can't believe it is almost SUMMER!!!!
