Time with Grandma and Grandpa

We got to have my parents with us for the weekend!  My mom sewed up our ripped clothing, and she wrapped my preschool presents, my parents watched the kids while I got to go the the gym Monday and Tuesday mornings and the biggest help was preschool graduation.  There was no way I would have got it all set up in time without my mom and Everett got to finish his nap and Garen got his homework done back at the house with my dad.  We loved having them and it was sad when they had to leave!
Since they won't be here in a couple weeks for our June birthdays they came barring gifts.  Garen was so excited about his Star Wars Legos and his Toy Story card game, Everett loved his pull toy Hungry Caterpillar and book, and Maddie had the coolest card with her picture on it and she got money to go towards her Ipad, some extra money for Minnesota, and an awesome $2 bill.

Last Saturday of Spring Soccer

The last 6 Saturdays we have spent several hours at the soccer fields, now we get a break till Fall soccer.  All three kids really did well and really enjoyed playing soccer!  The last half of Sophie's game they gave them a giant ball to play with just for fun.  I missed Maddie's last game because Everett was napping and I had to take Sophie to her friend Brooklyn's birthday party.  Garen also got to go to a friends Mad Scientist birthday party on Saturday.  He had a great time; they blew stuff up and he came home with safety glasses and the knowledge of how to explode a film canister.

City Wide clean up for Activity Days tonight


Roxanna is a friend of mine from Mexico.  She helps me in the preschool every once in awhile so she can practice her English.  She is the kindest person, she's always bringing me gifts and homemade Mexican food.  Her son turned 7 this weekend and she invited us over for the birthday party.  


Maddie was very proud of her poster for her school project on Sacagawea

Papa Murphy's field trip

It was so fun to go with Garen and his class on their field trip to make pizza's at Papa Murphy's.  Garen has had several field trips like, Walmart, The Yogurt Place, Burger King, The Fire Station and the library; I would love to go to them all with him but some fall on days I teach preschool and it's hard to find babysitters all the time.  I love seeing Garen in his school environment and with his friends.
