The New Canoe

Early in the Spring I started looking for a used canoe for Nate. After a couple months of looking I decided they were too expensive. Then Nate came home one day and said our neighbors were selling one for $25. Two new sets of oars and two new seats later, we were ready to take it out.

Leaving the house...

















We had a great day and were so excited about our new purchase!

Laura Playing Soccer

Laura also started soccer in the spring and played really well.




Baseball

Josh started t-ball. He was so excited! He counted down the days until it started. It was so fun to watch him play. He did a good job and he was really cute.

Soccer

Lia started soccer again. She played goalie most of the time and loved it. It made me nervous, but she wanted to do it and did a great job!

Piano Recital

Lia and Laura worked really hard on pieces by Mozart for their Spring Recital. They did great and I was really proud of them.


Last Day of School Party!

Every year we've wanted to throw a party on the last day of school and this year we finally made it happen. Lia and Laura told me what they wanted to do and I did my best to put it together. We invited all the kids in the neighborhood and everyone had a good time!

Josh's Kindergarten Graduation

I love Kindergarten! Everything about it is cute. And Josh's graduation was really cute. He had a great teacher in kindergarten and learned a lot. And even though he probably wouldn't admit to it, he had a fun year!
