Pinewood Derby and Blue & Gold Banquet

Benjamin's tank












showing off his license














Oh, so close!

















The boys performing the skit I wrote. They did such a good job!

Help, there's a monster in my ice cream!

Um... It's looking at me. Scary monster cat face in my ice cream!












Kenzie got some new shoes-her first pair of heels. You should see her shuffle along in them.












Pretty.













Muffin Tin Meals. Got this idea from several websites. You serve a meal in a muffin tin. The kids thought it was great fun, and I managed to get them to eat more veggies than normal this way.

Birthday Shenanigans

A few pics from Benjamin's 7th Birthday...














My daughter, the walrus.


















We all thought the cake turned out great!














Ben with his favorite present. They had both been begging for this remote controlled T-Rex since before Christmas but it was too expensive. Until I found it on clearance last week for 60% off!!! This thing is hilarious, too. They'll be playing with it for a long time.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Benjamin and Mackenzie with some Valentine's stuff they made at school. The first thing Benjamin said when he got in the car to come home from school was "Mom, I had soda today, but I promise not to act crazy!"
