Alice in Wonderland and Dance Costumes

I brought the kids to Portland to see Salzburg Marionette Company's production of "Alice in Wonderland" followed by a fun puppetry workshop at a theater nearby.

At Merrill Auditorium before the show.

The workshop was so much fun! 

When we got back, Abbey had dance class and tried on her costumes for the spring recital.

Josiah's Birthday Dinner

Josiah requested breakfast for dinner, so Logan made awesome pancakes and I made a sausage and egg casserole and fruit salad and we had a fun time with our neighbors and family.

Happy birthday, Josiah!

He was chomping at the bit to open his presents!  Especially the big one from Papa!

A guitar!

Lego fun

Josiah got some new Lego sets for his birthday, so they got right to it after his party.  Ben didn't even take his coat off!

These are what the boys call "Mock Ups":

 

Josiah's Pool Party

Josiah wanted to invite his whole class to a birthday party, so we rented the Y Pool!  It ended up being a blast, but most of the guests were super late so I was getting worried.  We had hot dogs and cake and presents in the conference room and then took to the pool.

Josiah said his party was awesome!  And when we got home, our house was clean so it was a good deal! :)
