Puddle Jumpers

We decided to go for a little walk around the neighborhood after a nice, long morning rain.  I figured what a great time to try out the "new" rain boots I found for the kids at Goodwill

Camila having a little trouble figuring out how to walk in the boots

ok, now I think she has it down

looking at worms

hmmmm, now what do I do?

always a lady, she must hike her skirt up so it doesn't get wet

and once again wanting to hold the camera

waving bye to the neighbors

Marco with his makeshift rain boots (they were actually snow boots) and his bag full of nature treasures

This and That

Camila and her good friend Sammy.  He lives next door and I think they are going to be good buddies as they get older

I tried to get a picture of her carrying her purse, but then she got distracted by the tv

my cute little bow head.  We were trying to show Camila how fun it was to have bows in our hair and not rip them out

This was ALL his idea, I swear

chasing the girl, trying to put a bow in her hair

 

mesmerized by the boy with the colorful bows

End of year awards/program

Joaquin after his end of the year program. 

Here he is pointing to one of his artworks

Marco at his "awards" ceremony. Each kid got to sit in the special chair and received a booklet of work they had completed throughout the year. 

Marco pointing to one of his favorite drawings of himself

Smiley girl and guns

I thought this was a cute one of her

And then this one just looks pitiful!

Marco getting ready to assemble his marshmellow gun

 

And success!  The final product actually works

How do you like them apples?

oh yeah, she loves apples

Here she is trying to run away from someone "real" fast.  I'm guessing it is either M or J chasing her

a little yard work never hurt nobody
