Putt Putt and go carts





Matt and I took the kids miniture golfing. Lets just say, we didn't keep score. Jack and I kept looking over at the go carts. Not knowing that they had double seating carts and Jack was big enough, we were pleasantly surprised. He was all smiles, so was I. Unfortuntely, Lily was too short, which will be the story of her life.

Overall, a good experience



After the elephant ride, overpriced cotton candy and popcorn, it was a good time. I think the kids liked it.

Lily looks thrilled


I cracked up when I saw Lily's face, she looks so thrilled and so cramped. I also thought it was sweet how she laid her face on Jack's back.

Elephant rides at the circus





My friend Jen and I took the kids to the circus. Not the same circus I am used to growing up. However, they did offer elephant rides. The kids didn't hesitate, in fact, Gracie is obsessed with elephants so she was the driving force. After paying 16 bucks (ouch) they hopped right on. They don't look too excited, I think they were nervous. I love the girl in front of Jack. She looks happy. The picture reminds me of a Benneton ad.

Gymnastics



Lily and her friend Avery at gymnastics. Jack got in there in the end. I just got that picture of Jack and Lily at the last second.

Matt and I


Matt and I went to a wedding. We just celebrated our 10 year anniversary, so it was nice to go and remember.

Air Zoo




Matt took Jack to the Air Zoo in Kalamazoo. Lots of little kiddie rides and airplanes and space stuff. It was a guy thing. Love Jack's faces in these pictures.

Zoo and park




Finally, some warm weather. We enjoyed the day at the zoo and the park. Later, some ice cream. Perfect.

Lily the ballerina


A friend of mine gave us this pretty ballerina dress that her daughters used.

Preschool picnic





We had an end of the year picnic at school.

Polliwalks!!


Fell in love with these shoes. The tails on the back light up. Jack can't stop wearing them.

Lily waiting for her piano lesson.


We found a very nice and patient women to teach the kids piano. So far they love it.

Mother's day tea at preschool


The kids at preschool invited the mothers for a tea party. They did a really nice job and used their manners.
