Sunday at the movies - Spiderwick Chronicles

 

We took the kids to go see the Spiderwick Chronicles yesterday and followed it up with some fun at Chuck E. Cheese. The movie was good, a little scary for kids Natalie's age, but Donovan loved every minute.

Crawfordville Festival 2008

 

As you already know, Donovan won the contest for his class for selling the most tickets, so he was involved in the opening ceremony for his school's annual festival. He had been excited all week, but when the time came, he wasn't looking too excited. After the opening ceremony, we (Donovan and I) worked the booth for his class, he was a BIG help. Then we went around to the other booths, at the end of the trip, the kids got to try the lemon straws. It is where they take a soft peppermint stick and cut a hole in a lemon, apparently after you leave the peppermint in the lemon for a little while, you can bite off the end of the peppermint stick and suck the juice through, like a straw. The kids really loved it.

I thought I would share some of my recent black and white shots.

Representative Donovan

Thanks to everyone who bought tickets for Donovan's school festival. He sold the most tickets for his class and was selected to represent his class at the festival on Saturday, April 26th at 2pm.

Weekend for BBQs

 

We spent the weekend visiting with friends and family. The kids had a great time on Saturday while we had a cookout at Ronnie and Lisa's, there were a pile of kids for them to play with and by the time we headed home they were exhausted. Sunday we got together with Uncle Bill, Auntie Chell and Riley, and Uncle Rich so he could get a break from all the girls. The kids really enjoyed having their own eating area in the fort. Natalie and Riley are having such fun with one another.

The South Florida family headed for a visit

Daniel's family from South Florida are headed up this weekend, we always enjoy hanging out with them, and I think Daniel said that this is "Girls Weekend" so Natalie and I are sure to have fun.
