Catching Up!

I've neglected posting anything on our blog for a few weeks so I am going to catch everyone up on what we've been doing. Not necessarily newsworthy stuff, but stuff nonetheless!

Ethan was a "Foofaloo" for Dr. Seuss day at school.


Joshua loved his giant sucker. The other kids were quite jealous!


Amanda & Megan playing dress-up in my old prom dresses with a friend.


Joshua loves to play with his light-sabers and his buddy, Kyle.


Jared competed in the district level for the science fair competition representing his school. He did a good job, but did not go on to the next level.


We got to help celebrate cousin Brynlee's 3rd birthday.
Brynlee was so cute and appreciative as she opened presents.


Ethan and Joshua playing with cousin Jacob.


Megan & Amanda having fun playing Disney Fairies online.


Ethan and Jack
Disclaimer: Jack is NOT an indoor dog.
Ethan just needed a picture with Jack for school and the weather was crummy outside. (After watching the movie, "Marley and Me," I think Todd was probably right to keep Jack's destruction limited to the backyard!)


Ethan and Larry
Disclaimer: Larry is an indoor cat who does live a pretty cushy life. However, he really is not as fat as this pictures makes him look. Granted Larry is a big cat and probably even fat, but this picture made all the kids laugh hysterically because of how fat Larry looked!


Ethan read a story he wrote during his class writing celebration.
He wrote about the game he and the other kids played with Grandpa
during a thunderstorm while they were in Michigan last summer.

Ethan's story.

Joshua and some other siblings got tired of listening to all the kindergarten stories. They found something more fun to do in the back of the classroom. (In his behalf, it was difficult to hear and understand most of the stories.)
