Caydence's kindergarten graduation

I can't believe she's done with kindergarten!


Her sweet teacher, Mrs. Sheets.
Caydence's friend Molly.  Poor Brooke was sick!
Caydence has learned so much this year and I am so proud of her!  She can read any book, and she is doing great with her math.  We are excited to see what first grade brings!

A day at the zoo

We spent a fun day at the zoo with my mom, Lauren, and Claire.

The kids LOVED the otter exhibit.  And especially the statue.  He kept saying, "I love him.  Him so cute."



Will was the only one who loved the merry-go-round.
The girls not so much
The bird takes donations :)

Where did she get that cute little skinny body?!

Great form :)

Easter

We started the day before Easter with Danny's family and an Easter egg hunt.




Dyed a bunch of eggs.


And Easter Sunday best!


Day at the aquarium

One of the perks of Danny's MBA program is the activities they offer for the family.  We attended a free day at the new Living Planet Aquarium with a catered lunch for "free" (factoring in the 10's of thousands of dollars in tuition...). But it was fun.  Hampered slightly by the fact that we were in the middle of potty training Will and he wet his pants right in the middle of the penguin exhibit.  And the fact that my children are afraid of EVERYTHING: the 3d movie, the dark rooms, the sharks behind the glass, their own shadows.  You get the idea.  But we still had a good time.



Who is this girl?

Pretty often I am sure that Caydence and I are not related.  After taking winter off from soccer, she scored 2 goals in her first game.  I don't think she even knew what was going on in the first half of the season!  All that practicing with her dad sure paid off!
She also joined the running club and she killed it.  She won several awards this year including: fastest mile by a kindergarten girl, most miles by a kindergarten girl, and a prize for 15+miles ran this year.  This frisbee was just one of her prizes.
And I am DEFINITELY not related to this dancing girly girl!  She loves dance!  I have never danced in my life, so this is a whole new world to me.  I'm learning a lot and loving every minute of watching how happy it makes her!  She got to be in a class with her two cute friends, Molly and Brooke, this year.
