More Fun

Tyler trimmed our boganvilla bushes. Andy and Alex made a boquet out of the flowers that were cut off. I was impressed!Ben pulled the curtain down on top of him and patiently waited while I grabbed my camera Ü

All 3 kids have been in art club this semester. Their favorite thing the club did was paint on the windows. Here Abby is standing outside the cafeteria by the carrot and cherries she painted.

The boys came home with new books from the book order. They sat right down and started looking at them. I love it! They didn't even take off their backpacks. Alex chose books about space...



...Andy chose books about bugs



Tyler has been reading the Narnia books to the kids. I love it because Tyler is actually excited to put them to bed and will make sure he is home from work on time to read to them. They have read The Magician's Nephew and are now almost done with The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. We are excited to watch the movie together.

(Other favorite reads are the Magic Tree House books and their research guides and American Girl book for Abby)

Awesome!  It is great that they love books!  Keep up the great work!  I am also glad to hear that Tyler is helping put the kids to bed!  Hooray for dad!  It gives you a few minutes to yourself, hopefully!  You deserve that!
Happy storytelling!
