Fun Weekend Together

We tried to do a couple fun things this past weekend! Here Travis is trying to get our 6 1/2 month old Theo baby to walk! Good luck with that dear!

"What do you want from me Dad?" We took the kids to Irvine Lanes on Saturday because KIDS BOWL FREE!! WOOHOO!! We had an awesome time!

My serious bowling face. And yes, it was Theo's nap time so he was in the carrier for our first game.

Go Beau!

Here's our first score sheet! It goes from top to bottom : Big Daddy (Travis), Super Mom (me), J Dog (Jack), HGJK (Beau), Maizie (Maizie). I LOST our first game badly! Bowling with the baby carrier is not easy folks! But, Jack beat Travis and Travis had no excuse.

Go Maizie!

Her balls took FOREVER to get to the pins!

Wade Family Pros!!!

Better game for me & Trav - poor Jackie couldn't get it together on the second game.

Then on Sunday we went to a concert at the Rancho Los Cerritos down the street from our house. It was great! Jack & I making puke faces.

Beau & Theo with our neighbor Ruthy

The Wartime Radio Review band - lots of Swing music and old fun stuff!

Travis & Maizie doing some dancing! Great end to the weekend!

End of the School Year!

I think the idea of blogging is to journal more than once a month or two because then you don't have to cram it in one post. But because of my awesome ability to put things off, there is this one post that encompasses about a month or more of life. Yes...

We are a reading family mainly because the library is free but also because I like to read therefore everyone will read. Beau loves to read to Theo (a captive audience) and reads him everything including this Black Lagoon book with no real pictures in it.

Jack's baseball season is finally over which is great..er I mean sad. He really loves playing baseball even though their team won only one game all season. He may just be in it for the snack afterwards. Beau's 1st grade class did a special concert for the parents which was adorable. Beau takes singing very seriously, it's quite endearing.

The end of AWANA for the year!! Maizie graduated from Cubbies! She is no longer a preschool girl, which we'll get to later.

And Jack got his award for completing all the Sparks books and is now graduating to the TNT class!! He's learning so much and looks forward to AWANA every Wednesday! Beau did a good job in Sparks too and has one more year of it. Unfortunately no pics of his success because he was having attitude, which I'm sure no one else experiences but us!

Maizie's preschool did a concert too! She's on the left in the front row - super cute!!

6 months old! We're saving this pics to show to his girlfriend someday.

Maizie & her BFF graduating preschool! We have a kindergartener now! She was adorable in her cap & gown and soaked up every bit of the attention and excitement.

Beau getting his honor roll award! He's a really hard worker and we're super proud of him!

Travis & the kids and dog. This really is the best picture that I could get of them which is so sad. 2 out of 4 kids are looking at the camera, well out of 5 if you count Pico.

Theo's first Star Wars toy, let's see how he likes it!

And in the mouth it goes..poor Anekin.

Hopefully this summer has tons of fun in store and lots of opportunities to be together as a family! Pray patience for me!
