31

Happy Birthday to me!!
I'm 31 today. It was a great day. We went to the mall for a fieldtrip to watch the new Disney movie called "Earth". It was fabulous! Then we all ate at the food court and got back to school in time for me to teach science in our outdoor classroom. This evening we grilled out with Timmy and Liz. Jack and Emma loved the hamburgers and fruit salad. Tomorrow Jack has a swimming lesson and then we're off to Madison to spend some time with the boys from Kenya before they head back home on Sunday. They've had an amazing time and Jack had a blast playing with them at Easter.

I've sucked at updating the blog. I got a new camera a few weeks ago and haven't taken a moment to download any of the pictures. I'm pretty sure I have about 400 pictures on it already! So any day now I'll have a big post complete with pictures!!!

I promise. Sort of!

Visitors from Kenya

3 of the 6* boys that captured my mom's heart while she was in Kenya the first time are coming to visit! They arrive on Saturday and will be at our house for Easter on Sunday! We are looking forward to introducing them to everyone at our church and having an Easter egg hunt afterwards. My mom will then be traveling with them (and "Uncle Joseph", one of their caretakers from the orphanage) all around as they explore the United States and do some fundraising.

My mom is updating her blog (finally!) so you can follow their adventures. Check it out!

We can't wait to spend time with John, George and Brian!


*3 of the boys have passed away since she was first there.

Yoda

Jack's favorite cat at Nae Nae and Dude's passed away this weekend. We didn't have the heart to tell him. Jack showed Yoda a ton of love while we were in Florida and she was always patient with him. I'm sure Bampa is taking care of her now. Or at least tolerating her! :)

Our Little Man

Jack is now officially enrolled for preschool in the fall. He'll be going to school on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings. I can't wait for all the experiences he will have on his own!
