First Grade Performance

Isaac had a little school performance on Friday that we attended. He had been memorizing the poem all month. They had songs and each group of animals took a turn to perform. He was in the mole group.

The girls and Thomas had a fun time watching. Had to keep Thomas contained. It was nap time and was a little crabby but overall did great.

Emma was bopping around and bonked her chin on the bench. Made the LOUDEST thud! She lost it for a bit but calmed quickly to watch the remainder of the show. 

Here's the video of Isaac's animal group part:

This was Isaac's artwork hanging in the hall, it's a Where the Wild Things Are creature.

Emma's chin didn't look like much until later that evening. She has a nice bruise now

Girls' Birthday Party

We celebrated the girls birthday a week early with their gymnastics party. It was a crazy Saturday, they have art class in the mornings. We picked them up and rush to lunch before dropping Isaac at a friends for another birthday party. Went to pick up the cupcakes and then headed to their party. I picked up headbands at Target and surprised them with them. They were so excited!

Their request of cupcakes: Emma Chocolate and Mary Vanilla with cherries on top. Turned out cute.

The girls designed the party saver bags and decorated each one

We came home and the girls opened their presents. They were so lucky to get some amazing gifts. We had requested no gifts at the party, but, well people brought them anyway.

Isaac made it home from his party, thankful a neighbor was able to give him a ride home. Then we spent some time outside on bikes.

Before heading out to eat at a new (to us) Mexican place.
