Sesame Street Live

Today we went to see Sesame Street Live. We

had so much fun. Olivia didn't know what to think when it first started. She just stood and looked, trying to figure out what was going on. Then when they started doing the song for Elmo's World she went crazy. She has never really watched Sesame Street, but she has an Elmo doll she loves that sings the song. Justin and Brenden really enjoyed

themselves too. I was afraid that they may be "too

big", but they enjoyed themselves just as much as they did a couple of years ago when they went.

Pinewood Derby Race

Justin raced in his first Pinewood Derby Race with Cub Scouts today. Him and Daddy made the Cub Scout knife as his car. They had a lot of fun making it. It won 3rd place in design.

Olivia loves the magnets on the

refrigerator. She plays with

them all the time. She is really learning a lot from them

too. She sings along when it plays the ABC song, it is so cute! Today she had seen Brenden bring a couple of the letters into the hall so she started doing it. We stood and watched as she brought a few more in and realized that she got more of the same color.

Before long she had every yellow magnet in a nice little pile on the floor. We

were amazed. Not bad for 18 months old.

Welcome to our blog!

I have decided to start a blog for our family. I figured no better time than the beginning of a new year. I have to admit though, I am doing it for mostly selfish reasons. Now when I am scrapbooking pictures later on down the road I can look back and know what we were doing at the time.
