Rachel's Field Day

Rachel had a great day at her first field day at French Road.
She had fun with her classmates doing tug a war, sack relay,
rolling the tire and lots of other fun activities.

Samuel's 1st Night of Soccer

Going for the ball.

Waiting for the ball to come his way.

Look at those moves.

American History Day

All dressed up and ready to go to a Ball.

Can't go to a party alone. Abigail with her great friend BNS.

Abigail's 5th grade class all dressed up for American History Day.

Abigail was choosen to be the lead dancer for the Virginia Reel. She was so excited.

She had a great day doing crafts, hearing Civil War stories,
taking strolls and being waited on by the boys at lunch.

Red Wings Game

Abigail played the National Anthem on the clarinet before
a Red Wings game at Frontier Field with the
rest of the 5th grade band and the FRES chorus.

We had a great night with friends.

Memorial Day

Our day started with a flag ceremony and pancake breakfast at church. We came home and got our garden planted (pictures to come).

So, then we could head over to our great friends the Pulley's to swim. Memorial Day is the start of the swimming season thanks to the Pulleys heated pool. Pulleys thanks for a great day of swimming, great friends and great food.

Diving Meet

Rachel had her first Diving Meet on Saturday.
She placed 2nd on the 3m and 3rd on the 1m.

There is a our happy champion.

Day 2

 We did pretty much the same things as yesterday. Ate breakfast and lunch watching television, rescued before Dad came home and just hung out at home. A few other things we did were playing in the snow

 

Such a Rachel picture

Samuel looks so sweet and so willing to get his picture taken without his brother here :)

They were playing so nice with each other

And the they played Guitar Hero ( for the third night in a row :) )

 And Rachel practiced the piano for 40 minutes! It's true (I watched the clock). She didn't practice the day before and I told her that she had to practice today and she said that she would make up for yesterday by practicing 40 minutes today. We maybe at a break through! :)

And finally, here are some extra pictures that I took today because I had my camera out

Rachel and Winnie
