Big Rig



We took the boys to the Big Rig to see all the trucks (and hear all the horns!). Leslie was at a sleepover.

Fishing



We took the kids fishing for the first time. We didn't catch anything, but we had a lot of fun trying. We learned a few things too.

Cedar Point

Leslie and I, and Linda and Danielle (friends of ours) went to Cedar Point to celebrate how well the girls did in elementary school. We had a blast! Our favorite ride was the Maverick which has a 95 degree drop. Yep, that's right, it goes backwards. : ) We took a bunch of pics so I've posted a link here to them (I finally figured out how to do it).

OMG!

I can't believe that I forgot to give Dominic credit for decorating the cake. He did a lot of it himself, and what he didn't do, he supervised well. Good job, D!!

Sorry it's been so long. I could list my excuses, but I won't. I love looking at all of your blogs, and have changed the title of the blogs I visit (I copied Brittany - hope you don't mind). I hope you are all doing well! Peace and love.

Boys



The first picture is of Dominic. It's the first time I'm seeing it. It looks like he took it of himself after eating an ice cream sandwich. The second is of Jack eating a popsicle and listening to my ipod.

The Artist




Leslie has tried her hand at photography. I think she did pretty good.

Leslie




Here are some of Leslie on her last day of 5th grade (she's the one on the bottom right), and her field trip. We both went on a zip line and it was a blast. She's a little nervous for middle school, but a little excited too. I know she'll do great!

Boys' Birthday Party



Here are a couple of pics of the boys at their party. I was not in charge of the camera, so we didn't get too many. : ) Jack is now 4 (and asks everyday if he's still 4. he already can't wait for 5!) Dominic is 7 and heading to 2nd grade!

Jack


This is Jack eating an obviously messy ice cream cone at The Great Wolf Lodge. We took the kids for a few days during their spring break. It was tons of fun!
My computer is running slow, but I'll add more pics later, especially from the trip.

Leslie's masterpieces



Leslie made her lady/man robot with a group of 5th graders. She also painted the picture showing her thoughts of keeping the world clean.

Dominic plays flag football


He's scored a touchdown in the last two games, and is really enjoying it! Go Dominic!

Leslie's Drawing



Leslie got a new drawing book and is doing quite well. Here are a couple of her drawings.

Dominic's hair cut


Dominic finally got his hair cut. He went with the spikes this time (although the spikes started to fall a little in this picture).

Easter Eggs





The kids had a lot of fun coloring eggs. Jack colored all 12 of his pink for the Easter Bunny!

Saddle Up and Read




Dominic created a character for his Saddle Up and Read theme at school. This is what he came up with (with a little help from Grandma C and mom).

Battle of the Books



Leslie and her friends joined "Battle of the Books" with her friends at the library. They read 19 books and competed against 65 other teams. They won for Best Name -- "Do you want fries with that?"

Jack was most interested in the water fountain.

Dominic Swimming



Dominic has really enjoyed his swimming lessons, and is now swimming with his face in the water!

Mother/Son Day




Dominic and I went to a Mother/Son Magic and Music show. He wouldn't sit still long enough for us to get a picture together. : )

Leslie's bangs


Leslie decided to get bangs. I think they look gorgeous on her!

Life is Good!


That's what Dominic said as he was playing in the tub with his new goggles.

A little piece of heaven ...


... in so many ways!

Busy Jack





Jack was quite busy yesterday. By 1:30, he had covered himself and the floors in styrofoam, and colored himself, and the "beautiful" picture, as he called it.
