Justin’s class went to Puck’s Farm last week and had a blast. These are some of the photos taken by mom as she chaperoned along with some of the other parents.

Justin chose to have his Birthday at “Reptillia” this year as he turned 5.  Mostly boys and a few girls to hang with Erika they all had a good time from Cake to Snakes!

First off check out Justin’s cool Birthday Card from gramma!

So now onto Turtles, Snakes and Crocodiles. Kevin our in-room helper was excellent with the kids and at teaching about each of the reptiles Justin and his friends got to touch. Even mommy had a breakthrough and barely touched a snake!

Here are some of the photos from the party and on the tour.

Here is some of the video we took at the party. Leave Justin a comment!!

From Piano Recital June 2009

Erika is in her second year of Suzuki Paino now. This is her 3rd Recital which takes place at a church about 30 minutes north of where we live. It’s a good time to see the kids get dressed up and then perform in front of a room full of family.

Her learning is still all visual and auditory. She has started to learn some notes but no reading songs from books and playing them yet.

First up… ” Go Tell Aunt Rodie”

After the intermission Erika is up again with “Little Playmates” - She looks back for that connection before the song and then after is smirking because she was proud of herself… as was I.

Here are a few of the photos I shot before, during and after including a class pose. Way to go Erika!
