Nathan's April Happenings......

Nathan had been busy with track this month...until he hurt his back and now he is done for the season!

Nathan also had a school Spanish project. He had to research and recreate a Pablo Picasso's Self Portrait.

Nathan has been part of the National Junior Honor Society and earned his service pin this month. We are so proud of him!

Joshua is getting very anxious for WARM weather, in fact he is pretending it is warm.....he spent one Saturday morning outside climbing the tree in shorts and bare feet. That afternoon he decided to be adventurous and take his rip stick down the hill in front of our house in shorts...you can see it didn't turn out too well. Looks like he'll be wearing pants for a little while longer!

Joshua also earned his Webelos badge, Arrow of Light and Religious Knot. We are so proud of him! Now he is on his way to Eagle!

Joshua also had his last school project (we hope). He was assigned West Virginia and had to make a suitcase for the state.

April Fools!

Nathan got me good for April Fools......and boy was I mad!!!!!!

Joshua's Birthday Celebration

Joshua turned 11 years old! Boy how time flies. His morning started with a yummy breakfast: scrambled eggs, cinnamon rolls and strawberries!

When he got home from school he found this.....

Later that night we went to Olive Garden to celebrate. Then he got to open his presents. He was so excited for his new fishing pole! He also got some cool throwing knives and a fun "boiling water" gadget from his cousin Ben!
