Matar

Jeremy recently started playing the guitar. (Zack refers to it as the matar.) After many failed attempts to make a hidden video of him while he was practicing, he finally agreed to me recording him and posting it on the blog. Stacy and Daniel this is for you.

Hayley's dance

Hayley had a dance recital this week. She did a really cool dance and won for "best fake smile." The recital was at the same time as the talent show, so the video was taken on a friend's phone.

Frog Blog

So Clara is turning 8 this week. And she LOVES frogs! For her birthday, she got a red eyed tree frog. It came early so she got it a little early. She is doing a report at school on them and was so excited that she was able to put in her "about the author" part of the report that she owned a red eyed tree frog. She named it Blossom.

Talent Show

Clara and Hayley participated in their school talent show this last week. Hayley's song was too long to upload, but here is Clara's. The pic above is a pre-show pic of Clara and her doll.

Camping

The last two weekends we have gone camping. We are really excited to use our trailer and get the kids out for some fun. This weekend we went to Winchester Lake. It was cold at night but the heater in the trailer worked just fine, in fact we all woke up hot. That was a nice surprise. We have yet to catch anything fishing except our dog who accidentally got hooked, but next time we will bring real bait instead of cheese.

        

Zack's 3rd Birthday

Well my baby turned 3 yesterday and Hayley is getting ready to go to 5th grade camp next week. How time flies! Zack had been sick for a few days and I ended up taking him to the dr. on his birthday. Luckily he was better then before, so he did get to enjoy his birthday some. Here's a pic of him that I took recently after he surprised me and got himself all ready for the day. Jacket, socks, shoes... but it seems like somthing is missing. Hmmm.

I made a moon cake and Zack put his space guys on it himself. I think that he did a pretty good job! His favorite things to play with are little tiny space guys. They are hard to find! We lose them all the time.

Later that night, Jeremy took Zack bowling. Zack loves bowling. It is very odd. We don't really go bowling and I'm not sure how he found out about it, but he LOVES it! They had a guys night out and Jeremy said that Zack was the hit of the alley. He would dance when he did good (in striking toddler fashion) and be upset when he did bad. I guess it was pretty entertaining.
