Valkaria Air Show 2010


We spent the day at the Valkaria Air Fest today. The boys had a great day! (Bad Mommy, forgot sunscreen, didn't even think about it with the cooler weather.) We watched lots of planes fly, including Patty Wagstaff!! The boys got their faces painted & spent lots of time in the bounce houses. After a nice day, and some VERY dirty & tired boys, it was time to come home for baths & pjs.

"Whoa!"



Roar!







Climb buddy, climb!!




This thing was HUGE! The wall wrapped all the way to the top, then a very long slide down:

David crashed:




but Xan was going strong!

Balloon Matching Game

I have this curriculum I bought for the boys, it's all on a cd. It's called "Cait's Curriculum." It's a Christian-based preschool curriculum. It's great for my little learners, and gets me started with home school experience. Anyway, there are a lot of activities on it. Today we did a matching activity that was a lot of fun for the boys, and easy for me! I took construction paper & wrote it's color on it, then hung it on the wall. This was good for little David as he's been working really hard on his colors; he's finally interested in learning them. Then I blew up balloons & the boys taped the balloons to the matching paper on the wall. After we finished, they had lots of fun with the balloons. :)

Valentine's Day

The kids had fun making things for Valentine's Day. Morgan made homemade Valentines for her class. Everyone got one that said, "You can count on me when things get sticky! ~Morgan" with a lollipop on the back. The girls got wands with their Valentines. The boys also made homemade Valentine cards for Daddy & Grandma & Papa. I made "Love Monster" cupcakes for Morgan's class. We had a lot of fun with it!
