At Riverside Park
Kevin's cousin Justin moved in with us this spring. We all love having him here!
We did a small unit on ostriches and to help Carlos grasp how tall an ostrich really is, I had him construct a tower the same height as one. At first we predicted that an ostrich would certainly fit into our living room, even though we knew they are tall creatures. After the tower was built and we tried to stand it up, we realized just how tall ostriches are! The portion that Carlos is holding in the picture would represent the ostrich's upper neck and head!
Viewing the butterflies at the Fredrick Meijer Gardens
We did an architecture unit and the kids were constructing houses. On his own Carlos decided to construct a bridge. We were impressed!
Kevin was part of Tulip Time this year, performing every day. All of us got to be in the children's parade! The Dutch costume that Maria is wearing was Kevin's dad's costume that he wore as a child! The costume I'm wearing is Kevin's grandmother's that she wore twenty years ago.
Kevin ran in his third 5K Riverbank Run, this year with Zach, Lori, and Todd. Kevin is mysteriously not wearing a numbered bib....you'll have to ask Lori the story on that one! :) (Love you, Lori!!)
This is the medal that Maria received graduating from preschool!
These were her teachers, Miss Colleen and Miss Marla. (They don't normally dress this way! The graduation theme of the school was a Disney one.) What a great year Maria had with them!
