Swimming and Sliders

We spent the afternoon swimming at the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center.  IMG_1242 IMG_1244 IMG_1246 Then when we came home Piper made her special turkey sliders for dinner.  She did it all!  All I did was get more butter out for the pan.

Secrete Life of Animals

Piper’s class has been studying animals this semester.  They were each assigned an animal to do research on and create a report. Then they put their information into a Power Point which they presented to the parents this morning.  Piper did her report on the Horned Owl.  Everyone did a great job!  Tomorrow is a field trip to the zoo to finish up learning about animals.  IMG_1171

Busy Week

This week was extremely busy.  I only have a few photos to share. IMG_1067 After a busy week we relaxed with an ice cream and lemonade picnic.  We soon realized lemonade does not go well with ice cream.IMG_1059 Andrew is learning about Space and the Earth at schoolIMG_1042 Piper has planted a couple of herb gardens for the summerIMG_1066 We checked out Andrew’s classroom for next year.  They are busy bees!IMG_1053Andrew was the snack helper this week at school.  It’s a fun day because they get to be in chargeIMG_1065 There was an early dismissal on Wednesday which gave us time for another ice cream treatIMG_1063 IMG_1072
