Alexia's Birthday Walk

Today, Alexia's had her birthday walk at school. She held the Earth and walked around the sun 4 times because she is 4 year old now. Then, everyone held the peace rose and said something nice about her. 

Apple Picking with the Eassons

The Eassons are a lovely family. We spent the afternoon apple picking with them and then dinner at their house. Maimou loved the gala apples. They are a cross of an apple and a pear. Alexia sat on her daddy's shoulders to pick the apple up high. Lisa told me how she asked her kids to check their PH level, positiveness and happiness. What a good idea because the kids do turn toxic easily. 

Twig

Twig is a praying mantis and he was our pet for a few days.

First Ballet Class

So serious, Alexia had her first ballet class. She was all pretty in pink and trying to listen to her teacher carefully.  She pointed her toes, and flex. Move to music and stop. Get in to first position, feet like a pizza slice. The ballet style is called Jose Mateo and it is more contemporary.  The studio did a good job teaching the kids. More importantly, Alexia loved it. 

Soo Bahk Do

Maimou loved Soo Bakh Do and today was his last class. I was so impressed how focus and in control the kids were. We saw them stretch, blocked, kick, and punch.

The Kapok Tree

This semester at Maimou's class they have been learning about the rain forrest. They created and designed a model of the rain forrest and the animals that inhabit it. Today, the kids performed the book The Kapok Tree. Maimou was the morpho butterfly. Eveyone remember their lines.

Rollie Pollies

Jumping spiders, snails, earthworms, and rollie pollies are a few things we find in our garden.
