Holiday 2015

 We had a very joyful Christmas. Here's just a few of our photos from the holiday:

How to walk on water. I don't know who had more fun...Michael playing in the ball, or David and I watching him!

Cub Scout Holiday Pack Meeting



Michael's school library has a tradition of decorating trees with reading-related ornaments from students. This is what we gifted to the library...it's David from the books by one of Michael's favorite author/illustrators.

This face makes me smile.

Super Turkey

Here's a few cute photos of Michael's fall field trip with his class. The week before Thanksgiving, the kids made pumpkin bread at school. Then, the class walked to a nearby retirement community. They sang a song about "Super Turkey" and shared bread with the residents.






Michael has a lot of class pride. He told me they are the BEST class in the whole school! I'm so happy he likes school so much.
