Chi-WHO?-ly

Last week, Beau & I joined some friends at the Arboretum while the big kids were in school to see the Chihuly exhibit.  I'm certainly not on the up and up in the art world; I had no clue who Dale Chihuly was prior to this.  But his sculptures were amazingly beautiful, so now I'm a fan!

Beau & Lainey just happened to call each other before our outing & coordinate their clothing.

Sweet Finley was a trooper & slept through much of our time there.

Now on to the sculptures...

I think these boats were my favorites!

 

The exhibit will be at the Arboretum until November.  If anyone else wants to take a look, we'd love to come along!

A Camping We Will Go

Jake & Mallory's spring program for Sunshine School was last night.  They had so much fun being little campers & singing all of their camping songs. This is our fourth program, but it was the first time that they actually sang!  We usually have some sort of catastrophe or meltdown with one of the kids, so I was so proud of them for getting up there & performing.

You can barely see Jake's "bear claws" behind his friend, Johnny.  He loved that part of the song!

Jake & Mal with Miss Jennifer, who they've really enjoyed being in class with.  I can't believe they'll be in a FOUR-year-old class when school starts again!

It's All About Me

Mother's Day, that is!  What job could be better than hanging out with these cuties?

 After attending church together this morning, we enjoyed a great lunch at home.  Daddy grilled so I didn't have to work too hard.  The kids, with the help of their daddy, gave me some sweet new kicks, & I also got to enjoy a pedicure this afternoon.  I am one blessed mommy!

 

Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms in my life! 

Funny Faces with Food

 Our kids are excellent at expressing themselves.  You can read their faces like little books, & some of the funniest faces occur during meal time.  Here are a few of late:
