Natalie Graduates From Pre-K

Natalie had a big day on May 19th! She had a birthday and also graduated from Pre-K at Fairview Elementary. She received a diploma along with several gifts and awards which were the "Most Excited About Math" award, "Ready to Read" award and the "Snuggle-Bug" award! She did really well and can read "Green Eggs and Ham" all by herself!!! We are proud of her!!

Natalie's Field Trip

Natalie enjoyed a fun day with her class at Lazy-5 Ranch.
They rode a horse-drawn wagon and were able to feed
and pet the animals. One big highlight was that "Brother",
as Natalie calls him (Pastor Ledford), drove her school bus.

Mikayla's Science Fair Project

She really had a lot of fun doing this project. A local dentist
even supplied her with some great teeth to display.

Palm Sunday Weekend

Mom and Dad came down to visit this this weekend. I think
they are getting tired of all the snow and wanted to see
some signs of spring. We had a great time with them.
Sam and Treena came over for Saturday and Sunday.
Here are a few pictures from the weekend.

We celebrated the birthdays of all three kids while they
were here!! Happy Birthday to Natalie, Mikayla and Justin!!!

Mom and Dad gave Natalie an "I spy!" book.
They spent a lot of time poring over it trying to find the
various objects.
