A whole lotta Legend

I've really improved my hustle,

my skills,

and my footwork this season

The hustle

Some skills (throwing while keeping my foot down)

and my footwork

I throw a maradona pretty regularly

I'm starting to make this look easy

(or easier any way)

Carnival!

We SOOOO look forward to this every year!

This year was the best yet.

We all took a turn in the hamster ball

Beck

Wes

and me

We ran the multiple bounce houses

and obstacle courses

until we were sweaty and out of breath

There were lots of new games to try

(Dad and Mike worked this one together!)

And of course,

we had to win liters of pop

Sugar, running, prizes, and more sugar?

A good time for all.

The 2nd graders get a field trip

It is a lovely spring day

(finally)

perfect for a field trip to Powell Gardens

There were all sorts of veggies and herbs

to taste and touch

pollen to collect

flowers to draw

and sculptures to climb on

We made ero-pots too

with little parsley seeds to plant later

My buddies and I had a pretty awesome time

goofing around

and running around the gardens

Thanks for coming, Mom!

A whole handful

Man, oh man.

I've been looking forwards to 5

for a long time.

Graduation from preschool,

starting kindergarten,

and all that stuff.

This is going to be a good year.

Dinos and Diggers REVIVED! T turns 3 and B turns 5!

Yep,

that was the cheesy line on our

birthday invites.

Mom loves that kind of stuff.

But it really WAS

dinos and diggers take 2!

All our cousins

and friends from school

got together at Paradise park

for some pizza and fun

And there was, of course, cake.

So happy to be 5!

And thrilled to be 3!

Making wishes...

Thanks for doing all this, Mom and Dad!

We jumped into presents.

We got some really good toys and books

and some CRAZY candy

(I love Mom's face in this picture!)

I got my own big boy scooter!

And then it was time to play

We all made crowns

(Mira, Nathan, Tuck, Reid)

(me, Gavin, Davonee, Emma)

(The Grandmas and Jack and Wes)

Turned out pretty good!

Looked good on Grandpa too

Then we got to cook

Jack is workin' in

Little acorn snacks!

And finally...

the foam factory!

We squeezed in some arcade time too.

I'm pretty good at skee ball

Tuck likes the shooting games

Thanks, everyone!

Happy birthday to us!
