MDO, AWANAS, KOINOS

I am sad to announce that Gabe has completed his last year of Mother's Day Out. WOAH-- where did the time go? I remember the day that I first took him and he cried and cried and cried and cried. (It was 3 weeks before he would actually go without crying!!!) So how did the time go so fast!! Here is Gabe with his precious teachers that love him so much! 

Here are the trio boys! Kien, Nicholas and Gabe. (in that age order)

Since we are relocating to Oklahoma, this is their last Awana's group awards night! I am so proud of them both for being such a great Sparky and Cubbie! Kien loves his friends! 

Here is Gabe receiving his Appleseed Book Award! 

And here is Kien recieving his WingRunner Book award! 

Koinos Homeschoolers has been such a blessing to our family and I have been able to connect with other homeschooling families in this program. Kien has taken Gymnastics and Karate and this was their program for the year. I am praying for both an awesome Awana's club AND a wonderful ministry like Koinos when we move!!  

Out Door Life

I am so very proud of my son for teaching himself how to play the guitar mostly. He has such a natural talent that he can "hear" music and play it within a few strokes. What a gift, Son! 

Bear Creek Park is super pretty. And, they have hungry ducks, (and turtles) too! 

 I don't recall which park this one is, but it's in Haltom City. (I think, Ha!) We went on recommendation of my husband, but the ducks that were there ran away. And-- there was only ONE turtle that was interested in our bread. So we played on tree's. ;) 

Introducing Athena Grace

Here's for Grandbaby number TWO! 

Welcome Athena Grace to the world! I cannot wait to meet her. Baby and momma are doing well, and Athena looks just like her daddy! 

Our Daily Occurances

I often catch Gabe creating some sort of game of rescue missions. This one happen to include a fire engine, a ladder and his puppy. Then off to be a pirate! 

Kien has interesting idea's for working on his seat work. And, he lost a tooth! 

Sometimes boys just need a mouthful of whipped cream sprayed in thier mouths. Haha

It is not often that they boys are "still" for longer than 15 minutes, but wow this day, it was like an HOUR! Gabe is very interested in doing "school" while brother is. 

Silly faces and giggles. 

This day was cover your ears day. LOL 

And Gabe was learning all about balance. 

Hair cuts are always fun because they get to have a sucker afterwards. And, look handsome all at the same time! 

Wow, I have never seen in my whole time living here the blooming Iris' look so beautiful! 

Precious Ivy Egg hunting. 

We went to Home Depot to pick up some mulch and dirt. Jeremy said to me there was this live owl on the bags. I said no way and that it was a statue. As we came closer, we saw him move!!!
It was a REAL OWL that took refuge at the home depot. I am not sure how long he lived there, and home depot sectioned off an area he liked, but he came out to say hi to the customers! It was a bit scary because he did hop closer to us, almost to touch, however, the last time we went he was already gone. :(
