Awards and Art

This month we had the fun privilege of watching Xavier recieve the award for Respect at his elementary school's Character Counts assembly.  He is such a great kid.  It's always nice to know that other people can see that too.  :) 

His kindergarten teacher was such a sweetie.  She told me that he is a really amazing kid and that if you gave her a classroom of 100 Xaviers she would have no problem teaching them all.  He's just a fun kid.  :)

We also had a ton of fun at this year's Imagination Celebration, the school district's elementary Arts and Music showcase event.  The kids had a ton of fun checking out the musical instrument petting zoo, exploring lots of fun arts and crafts activities, and admiring the art work of other children.  This is one of our favorite things to do every year.  We are so grateful to live in such a wonderful school district that appreciates and celebrates the importance of art and music in education. Yea for ARTS Education!




Everything Rebekah made had a Dr. Who theme too it.  It was pretty fun to see what she would come up with that was both related to the showcase art/craft and Dr Who at each art table.

It's been a bit of a warm and dry winter, until our latest epic snow storm!!  We didn't get as much snow as high elevations, but I'm happy with 9 inches in 3 days.  Diana is all in when it comes to playing in the snow, the little boys have been busy as beavers digging snow forts, and Maeve has found that digging out snow paths with her friend Lilly is a great way to "chill" during the afternoon.  :D  The big kids have been busy helping Dustin and I keep the street shoveled out.  Dustin wakes up early every morning to use my Dad's snow plow to clear all of the sidewalks on our street  before the kids have to walk to school. 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!
