Memorial Weekend

We had a great time in Port O'Connor this weekend! There were too many fun activities to list, but a couple of highlights: Eli officially started "cruising" and pushing various toys (and pieces of furniture) around; Marty, Sam and Sarah had a blast playing on the inflatable water slide; and, Tyler caught one redfish and a few beers on a grown-up fishing trip! We are all happily tired and really full,. Big thanks to Nonna, Grandad, BeBe and Papa Jay!

Goodbye, Hungry Caterpillars!

Thursday was Marty's last day in the Hungry Caterpillar class at Pre-school. His teachers sent him home with a great DVD of all the pictures they took of the kids throughout the year, as well as his very own set of butterfly wings. Now, we are all counting down to June 14th, when Marty will start camp at the "JJCC"! :)

Camel Riding

On Sunday, we went to the Dallas Zoo for the "Giants of the Savanna" member preview. It was great exhibit. In fact, we enjoyed it with 10,000 other Dallas Zoo members! We forgot to take our camera, but Tyler caught this picture of Marty with his Blackberry. Marty was quite proud of himself, "I roded a camel, and I was so, so brave."

More Bike Riding

Yesterday, Marty was determined to ride his bike "all by myself!" Once he figured it out, he was so proud that he started listing all of the people that we should send the video to...

Riding a Bicycle!

This morning, Marty told Tyler that he wanted to ride the Spiderman bike that Ryan gave him. He needed a little help getting started, but he was able to ride some on his own - as long as Tyler reminded him to keep looking forward!

Summer Birthdays

Today, the Hungry Caterpillars had a party to celebrate the summer birthdays. Each of the six kids with summer birthdays got to help Bonkers the Clown do a magic trick.

McDonald's with Ellen & Alla

Marty andIsabella were the high bidders on "time with your teachers" in the Preschool Auction. Yesterday, they had their date with Ellen and Alla at McDonald's. On a side note, Tyler brought the "Arizona" t-shirt to Marty after his golfing weekend. Marty wore this shirt for four days in a row (with me sneaking it away at night to wash). Thankfully, he agreed to wear his Shabbat t-shirt to school today!

Bathtime Fun
