Crazy....Hair Day....

So I had this great long post almost ready to go telling about what we've been up to in the last month. However when I went back and read it to myself it sounded stale and boring. To much time had passed and it wasn't fresh and fun anymore...(note to self...blog more often). Not that my writing is all fresh and fun and exciting but it is current. So here is a little glimpse at what we have been up to this week.

On Tuesday evening we had a wonderful time at Emma's spring chorus performance. This year they sang pieces from " The Sound of Music". They all did such a great job. Emma had a small speaking part introducing a song and she was the only one who memorized her part. Those years of learning the memory verse are paying off in more ways then one I guess.

On Thursday evening we again had a treat in going to Aubrie's orchestra performance. This is her second year playing flute for the Dunsmore Elementary School Orchestra and she loves it! They amaze me! Here are all these fourth through sixth graders and they have such poise and play so well.

Friday was a day that the kids wait for all year....Crazy Hair Day! They like to try a little something different each year but one thing that does not change year after year is.....LOTS and LOTS of COLOR!!

One last semi ironic thing. Here today is...Saturday...Memorial Day weekend...the opening of the beaches....almost summer some would say. So we decided that today was the day to set up the ol' pool. And what do ya know....rain! It's raining in southern California at the end of May. Ha ha...with the cost of water I guess we'll take all the help we can get in filling the thing. It's killing the kids though. But along with the rain came the cold...it's only 55 degrees out there. Brrr...no ones goin' in today!

Well apparently I was wrong because before I could finish this post my crazy kids were indeed in the pool! BRRR!!
