Super Readers

-
This summer we have all been busy participating in 3 Summer Reading Programs sponsored by our local libraries - Freeman-Memorial Branch Library, Helen Hall Library, and Ferguson Elementary Library. 

We have had a wonderful time reading many, many, many good books, attending exciting special library programs, and enjoying our fun prizes. 

Yea for my super readers!
Rebekah, Loyd, Xavier, and Meave had fun touching some interesting animals at a few of the library programs this year.  Here's a few pictures of the kids checking out a cute baby alligator.  Mind the little fingers, please.  :)


Xavier was really excited to get his picture with Captain America.  He told me that Captain America is his favorite super hero.  I love his patriotic choice. 

 And of course, no summer would be complete without attending the end of summer Super Readers library party at Helen Hall Library.  The kids love riding the small city train around the parking lot every year.  It's the little things that make the summer so much fun.  :)

The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preference for warm

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
