We planted wildflowers at our bus stop.  Hope they grow this spring.  My neighbor organized it

Birthday party fun

Just being silly

Working out

Watching a movie

For 2-22-22 the theme at school was ties and tutu's. At 2:22pm the entire school danced the Cupid Shuffle.  

The 100th day of Kindergarten the kids are encouraged to dress up as if they were 100 years old. Cole does not usually participate in the dress up stuff but really wanted to wear a robe to school.

January 2022

Adventures from January. 

Just love how comfortable they are living with us

The kindergarten teachers made these for the students.  It is the same size they are at 5. So sweet

Alexis wanted one of my purses so she could keep her money in it. This was her first purchase.

This is what happens when the kids have my phone:)

Alexis's class got a stuffed animal for them to practice reading to..this is her stuffed dog

January art in Alexis's class.  Chinese year of the Tiger

Just a cute picture

Hiking

In January we made play doh and then snowmen for art in Cole's class. I always practice the art project with the kids. This is Alexis's snowman.

Cole's

Painting rock insects for our garden

Tough life

Art at school

We are participating in the goal of 1,000 hours of outside time. So the kids got into playing music in the garage and riding their bikes and playing outside at night. 

Playing at the park with friends

Cole's finished bathroom.  Allen did an amazing job

Black History Month Art project in Alexis's classroom.  They made rockets

We took the kids to Leavenworth for a long weekend.  We stayed at a hotel with a hot tub and pool.

Of course we need to purchase a stuffie

Enjoying the snow

Such a cute town

Lunch

Cole kept finding a large snow ball to carry around

Tubing was so much fun

 I wish I took a video of Cole so I could record him laughing the entire way down the hill.  So awesome.

Exploring

Dinner.  Such a fun place.  We ate outside but were warm with our own fire

The pretzel was so good

After dinner the kids wanted to sled.  We left our sled in the car so we just went on our pants.  It was all ice and so much fun.

Crazy kids in our hotel room

I organized another book fair in Jan/Feb.  It went really well.  Looking forward to the end of COVID so more parents volunteer.  It was a long week.
