Maggies First Whale Watch

Maggie went on her very first Whale Watch this Memorial Day weekend. She loved it which is great because now we'll be able to spend more time with Daddy this summer. The pictures and videos tell it all!

A Beautiful Weekend in May

This past weekend was a busy one. We had beautiful weather and lots of fun things going on. Saturday morning we baked cookies for Grandpa for his Birthday and had some friends over to play. Then that afternoon my sister and I got to walk through our old high school before it is torn down. It was a great experience.

Maggie playing basketball in my old Gym. It was surreal walking around my old high school with my two year old.

The Auditorium was my favorite place in the school. Lot's of great memories here.

The Courtyard

It was a little sad saying good bye to our old school but that's nothing a couple drinks and sitting around a fire that night couldn't help. We had a great time celebrating my Dad's birthday that night at my aunt and uncles house. Maggie spent the evening with her grandmother (Mamma) and her cousins so that meant Mommy and Daddy got to enjoy a nice relaxing and fun evening. Sunday was family day and perfect for taking Maggie out to fly her kite for the first time.

She ran around and around in cirlces with her kite trailing behind her. She loved it.

We took a trip to the playground where Maggie spent most of the time going down this slide.

After the playground we had some lunch, ran some errands, and finished the day playing in the back yard and cooking on the grill. Now that is what I call a perfect weekend. 



 



Learning the Alphabet

My Daughter got these foam puzzle pieces for her birthday one year. I came up with a great game for the kids to play that helps them recognize their letters and numbers.



First we separated the letters and numbers from their pieces.

The children then each took turns matching the letters back into their pieces. I would help them find the correct piece buy telling them what color to look for.

Once we had all the letters and numbers back in their place we spread them out again and worked together to put them in their correct order.
