REX


Meet Rex.
Our newest addition.

Bubs had asked for a bunny awhile ago, and I found a rabbit hutch online for a super-good deal.
It was a little beat up and needed some tlc, but since we have some handy people around--it was a win/win.

We picked him up at the beginning of the week and someone is soo happy!

They also had cotton candy, popcorn, and drinks, face painting, giant jenga, checkers, goldfish toss, prizes and more!  I'll say it again, we have an awesome library!

FIELD DAY 2018


The day started out super-chilly--most of us had sweatshirts on, but the sun did peek out later on.


I helped out with the Pre-K/K group, so I didn't get pictures of the other kids doing their stations.
Water balloon toss


Frozen t-shirt contest


After games and lunch, the crazies decided to hit the splash pad.  
BRRRR!





Not many pictures, but something to remember it by anyway.

ANNUAL FUN TRIP


We took our annual end of the year field trip to the Land of Make Believe with co-op this past week.
AND.. Daddy was able to come too!!

We had some beautiful weather for it!
The boys had all their hair shaved off for the summer, and unfortunately one cloudy day we did not put sunscreen on and they ended up getting burned--hence the bandanas.  The girls just wanted to match.

It was flag day, so these two were dressed appropriately.




Spiderman there was especially excited to go on everything!




Missy with some friends



After lunch, we went over to the water park side--the lazy river and the pirates cove part weren't open which was stinky, but even though the water was FREEZING (!!) I think everyone had fun.

Obviously, neither of us had our phones with to take pictures.  Maybe next year.

Welcome Summer!!

THE STORM


Both girls played softball this year--on the same team which made my life much easier.
Some pre-season practice before the weather was nice enough to be outside.



This year was very different as they moved up to Junior level not ponytails.
The girls were able to pitch and they actually had umpires and did strikes and all that stuff.



I think it was a great learning experience this year and they both had a great time.






This picture was missing one coach, but overall great coaches and nice group of girls.


Until next season!

THE BOYS


We'd like to introduce you to our new boys!

Brothers--Mooney and Padfoot.

They are brand-new to us, so I haven't been able to get too many good pictures yet.
Padfoot is still a bit skittish and doesn't like to stay still.




The kids--3 in particular--are just over the top excited to have them!

I'm sure you'll be seeing more of them in the near future.

GAP




Bubs lost his first tooth!  Super exciting!
