Elaine's first photo ID

In case we needed to travel to foreign soil, we got Elaine her passport. Among all of us, she has the best photo!

Last days of pre-school 2010

Last week was the end of pre-school for both Peter and Natalie. At the end of the school year, each pre-schooler plants a plant outside of the school building. Natalie's flower pick was a bright and bold orange marigold. She seemed pretty happy with it.

Peter had to make sure his "royal velvet" plant got water...this would be the 3rd pot full he's given it!

Natalie with her teacher Ms. Connie!

In front of the school, I planned to get a picture of just Natalie with her giraffe balloon from their circus day. Peter and Elaine couldn't help but crash the photo op. I love the end result and think we've found a school year tradition!

Lego builder in training

Legos continue to be one of Peter's favorite past time. He keeps telling me about a Lego building contest mentioned the Lego magazine. I keep telling him that he needs to practice and to start building things on his own to enter!

Since then, he's built some pretty cool buildings.

First, there was "The Shed."

Next was "The Library.

The "Lego Fighters" were next.

Most recent build was "The Condo" that had an open air library and elevator!

Lego Magazine...here we come!
