Hello Mr. Turkey

Too cute not to share!

A Turkey What?!?!

So this week at school they are holding a Turkey Trot Walk-A-Thon where the kids can walk/jog around the blacktop outside for a chance to win a turkey. I had no interest in getting involved cause honestly, sometimes there is just TOO MUCH going on with school! As Bronwyn got out for the day a couple of her friends were headed over to get some laps in and she was so excited to go with them! So with punch card in hand, she started running... and running... and running... and *24* laps later she let me take her home! She loved it and is so excited to get more laps in tomorrow! Each 10 laps gets her name in the Kindergarten drawing for the turkey! She's supposed to be raising money as well, but again, sometimes it is too much! Anyway, love this little girl and her determination! I'll let you know if she wins!!!

Look Who's READING!

We were told at the beginning of the school year that our Kindie would be reading by Christmas. I have to admit I was in disbelief. But here were are, not even half way through Kindergarten and Bronwyn brought home her first reading book assignment. She has to read it a few times each night. She wanted to read it to Hayden and here they are! Of course, my kids are grossly prepared to be picture ready, so not only was Hayden waiting for the "click" during the video, they get in pose mode right at the end.

Zoo for 3 please!

The kids and I decided that we really needed to take advantage of a couple of warm weather days and get another trip to the Denver Zoo in. We headed right after Bronwyn got out of Kindergarten. Not sure what it was about today, but we were able to see all kinds of fun things! So many of the animals were way more active than normal. Maybe they were just enjoying the warm weather too! Bronwyn and Hayden were lots of fun and stopping to get silly pictures everywhere! So glad we got to get out today. It's days like these I enjoy the most... good last minute fun!

Hayden earns his yellow belt!

Hayden has been taking a Kenpo Karate class for the last two months and just had his test for his yellow belt. He demonstrated his skills and passed his testing! It's exciting to see him focused and learning something that is fun for him and teaching him great defense skills.
