Wrkn Hrd

Theo has been rocking it at school this past month.  He has a whole month of smile faces on his calendar.  This is HUGE (since it was a month of straight faces back in January).  He alternates between the table with his peers and the desk by himself when needed at school.  He earned All E's on his progress report for the first time EVER.  Dave said he was beaming all weekend.  Here he is reading from his newest reader at school.  Go Theo!!!

Pink Concert

 
I traveled to Dallas this past weekend to attendthe Pink concert with my college friends.
I had shirts made for us at a local soccer shop, and we were a hit with the crowd! Pink
put on an amazing show and sounded great live! Our group went out to Ft. Worth the next
day and had a low-key night.

Roller Derby

I took the boys to a roller derby last night. There were some tough ladies out on the rink.
Ha ha. Everyone had a good time, and most of the fun was figuring out what was going on!

Valentine's Day with Mama

We drove up to College Station to visit Mama on Thursday. We had such a nice visit with her. Aunt Sonja came and met us for lunch and brought the boys some treats. They played at Mama's house before we left.

Mardi Gras Day

We had a great time with friends at our local parades. It was drizzling, but that did not damper our fun. Ms. Kristen showed the kids how to make bead dogs. Jack has made dozens since the lesson this morning. Happy Mardi Gras!

Theo's special day

Theo had a special day at school on Friday.  He wrapped up his week as the helper by presenting an item for show and tell.  He brought in his swim team trophy and team picture.

His class also celebrated Valentine's Day since the kids at out of school next week for Mardi Gras. The kids decorated treat bags and passed out their cards. His teacher was kind enough to take these pictures for me. I just love it!

Theo had 2 perfect weeks at school and earned his special markers. Go Theo!

Spanish Town

Dave and I went to a parade in Baton Rouge this past weekend.  Spanish Town is a randy, satirical parade and revolves around the color pink.  Neither Dave nor I wore pink (go figure), but we soon racked up tons of pink beads.  The people watching was PRIME.  Dave's friends graciously opened up their home for a party before and after the parade.  They get a porta-potty each year just for this parade. Thanks, Leanne and Tim!!

Good and bad

I tried to make cute candy skewers for Jack's class, but failed
miseribly.  It was sticky and messy.  The boys didn't care, though!
Theo also started a new reader at school.  We are so proud of him.
