Crafts and Special Olympics

I LOVE CRAFTS!! Especially when your kids make something that you will cherish and use forever!!! Chelsie came home today and 'presented me' with this dish that she made. Isn't that great!!! She designed it, painted it and even had the idea of making the 3D star! Wow! I wouldn't have thought of that!!! :)



Alex had Special Olympics Swim Meet this past Friday. He swam the 25m Freestyle and 50m Freestyle (should actually be called 'Alexstyle') :) He got 6th and 5th place respectively and some of the kids from his class showed up to cheer him on! Pretty good considering it was a day off school!! I love how everyone gets a ribbon regardless of whether they were 1st or 6th! Love that! And to see their smiles! Chelsie and I had a good time cheering on everybody. Here's Alex in his tracksuit for Cape.



And with one of his ribbons.



Good job everyone!!!

Hello to Janine and Kevin! We have enjoyed a beautiful day today...sunny and warm! I know those days are coming for you too. :) Hope you are all doing well...we look forward to a visit with you ALL this summer. The time does fly, doesn't it?! I cannot believe we are on the "home stretch" of the school year! Lots to do in the next two months.

Have a wonderful week!
