This year, he chose three friends to join him for dinner and shenanigans at iPlay America, a local indoor amusement park. They have go karts, bumper cars (on massive air cushions), and lazer tag.
They also had a candy store. Talk about a sugary- goody bag!
Goofing off at his family party.
This kid is so big, so strong, so in love with reading... Trenton is a fantastic big brother, an enthusiastic learner, and always willing to make you laugh.
Kids had at least a handful of snow days and some pretty great snow to play in.
Spent lots of time indoors reading, checking out new Christmas gifts, watching TV...
When Jim wasn't around, I put the kids to work shoveling the driveway. HA!
Oliver dressed as a Rock Star for school one day. Above, celebrating Uncle Len's BD. Below, a massive lemon meringue pie slice.Definitely blog-worthy.
This is what you look like when you are 100 days smarter than you were when you started kindergarten. Oliver has a fantastic teacher this year and the entire kindergarten had some really neat activities for the kids to participate in to mark the special occasion.
Oliver making a goofy smile, but showing off his "Always Awesome, Today and Every Day" shirt.
Celebrating Grampack's birthday in style, with an ice cream cake!
Trenton's teacher engaged the entire class in a really neat project-- taking one large ball of play dough and proportioning it out to illustrate the actual differences in sizes of the planets. Pluto is nothing but a speck!
