Cheerleading

Felicity did cheerleading this fall.  Here is the one game they cheered for after 7 weeks of practice.  She liked it okay, but liked her painting class better.  She said it is because, "I am an artist, so I like art class the best."

Running through the hay

Playing in the curtains

This is not mom's favorite thing, but she allows it sometimes. 

Brother and Sister

 Playing baby.

Reading her homework. 

Playing Stratego.
Lots of brother and sister love each other (most of the time). 

Lobster Fest

Felicity got her face painted at the lobster fest. 

Trip to Raleigh

A trip to Raleigh staying with cousins. 

Beach Camping

Camping on the beach at Bear Island was cold but amazing.  We all got very little sleep, but ate a lot of fun snacks and LOVED the scenery.  Saturday morning it was warm enough to swim for a little bit. 

More Horse Riding

Horse Party

Henry wasn't very excited at first, and was a little scared, but he did it, and then did it again after cake.  Way to go! 

Little Pirates

We dressed up like pirates for a free meal at chick-fil-a, and we got 3 dozen free donuts at Krispe Kreme.  It was national dress like a pirate day. 

Visit to the Aquarium

Henry's favorite thing to do is touch the stingrays, so he was so excited when they had a special shark touching time. 

Silly Kids

Felicity reads to Henry

Felicity is such a good reader.  She reads her homework pages every day to Henry.  He is good listener when she reads (not always when mommy and daddy tell him to do something though). 

Henry dances

The outfit is a little small, but he likes it.  Felicity helped him get in it. 

Birthday Dolls

Felicity got a doll from Aida for her birthday.  She like it so much and decided she needed another one for them to be friends, that she used her birthday money from mom mom and went to target to get another one.  She likes to take one of them everywhere we go. They came with clothes and a book.  Thanks grandmas!

Birthday

Singing Happy Birthday to Felicity

Felicity turned 6 last week and we had an outdoor zipline and sprinkler party.  We had an ice cream cake.  Right after she blew out the candles, it started raining and the kids wanted to eat their ice cream inside, but we had them huddle in the porch until it passed.  Our house stayed clean, and kids were happy.  The rain soon stopped, praise the Lord. 

Henry is Super Hungry

Apparently, I don't feed Henry enough. 

Dancing with Daddy

Felicity's favorite thing to do is have a ball and dress up, and often she has us dress up and dance to.  

New Bike Helmet

Henry needed a new bike helmet for his growing head.  He chose the shark over the dinosaur, and wore the helmet almost constantly for three days. 

Shall we dance?

Henry asked me to dance while Felicity played piano, and it was so cute, I asked him to do it again so I could take a video of it. 

Last Day of Kindergarten

Today was Felicity's last day of Kindergarten.  She got the joyful spirit award and showed so much joy when she was receiving the award.  She will miss some of her good friends. 

Gymnastics Ceremony

Felicity completed a 6 week gymnastics class.  It is a good sport for her, and she did very well at the final performance. 

It's Spring

 We got a visit from a cousin. 

 Bulldog Run at my college.  The kids both raced the kid's dash and got their face painted. 

Happy Easter!

We went to see the cousins for Easter

Camping in the Living Room

Singing Happy Half-Birthday to Henry

Henry is 3 1/2

 

Brent made a train cake and we had a half birthday for Henry.  Half birthdays are important, especially when your birthday is on Halloween. 

My Dinosaurs

Another museum trip created two large reptiles. 

Playing in the snow in March

It was a cold winter with snow, unlike last year.  The kids loved it! 

Brother and Sister

The kids grandmother asked me for some nice pictures to display, so the first two pictures were my attempt. 

Before and After Haircut

Mom got tired of fighting about brushing hair even though Fay wanted hair as long as Rapunzel, we decided the tears were not worth it.
