Piano Practice

So we discovered by accident that recording Leah's piano practice makes her REALLY want to play the songs over and over again. Then she wants to watch herself play them all over and over again. She thinks it's hilarious when she messes up! Finally some mistake enjoyment for the perfectionist. Whatever works right? This is her next recital song. She still has a month or so to practice.

Easter and Kate's Birthday

Kate turned three on Easter this year! We had a very small, and very fun family gathering!

One of Kate's favorite Brazilian treats pon de queijo

Feeding and nursing an injured chicken, our girls were in heaven having a chicken for a house guest.

Egg hunters

Leah got a shiner the Friday before Easter. She was running out to the chickens and took a fall.

The birthday party after the egg hunt

Soaking an injured chickens leg. Yup....that's how much we love them!

Sisters

They play so well together...sometimes.

Chickens

We have 40 chickens now! 40!!!!! This is what the kids do all day!

Valentines recital

The only way I can get it done.....DUMP!

School Girl

Kate started school last week. She has been looking forward to "school" for quite some time.  For lack of other options near us she will be attending Challenger school through the end of the school year, and after that I'm not sure. Kate really likes to be social so we will find her something again for fall. My hope is that our favorite teacher "Miss Ashley" will have her preschool up and running again by fall!
