Big Day

Very big day in the suburbs.

Lake Hike

This weekend was beautiful. So we took a two hour tour around this lake and its trails. The girl ran for a mile of it. I wish I had her energy!

Science Night

Every year, the kids school puts on a science night. Each classroom has a different hands on experiment and/or craft. All of the kids love it. The biggest hit of the night was the science classroom where there were reptiles to touch. I am very proud of my girl, her friends and the other girls that held the snakes, frogs and iguanas.

Iguana Pet You

Ok, I know that is a lame pun, but it is the best I can do on short notice. The boy liked petting this Iguana. I really like the kids science teacher. She makes learning so much fun.

Blowing Bubbles

The girl in the middle school classroom making and blowing bubbles.

Cookie Monsters

I have a bunch of flour and baking ingredients left over from the holidays. So, we decided to make cookies and lemon bread. Here are the finished cookies, right before they were eaten.

Hill Hike

We are trying to take the kids out on a hike on the weekend when the weather is nice. This week we went hiking in the foothills in front of our house. Everything is so nice and green. The kids decided to climb a tree.
