Birthday Month

In our family of 4 we have 2 birthday months. March is one of them. I celebrated mine with family for dinner and Mark invited 4 friends for supper at a restaurant and cake and a pinata afterwards. It was a blast. Pink Panther was Mark's "theme" for the cake and the pinata was meant to be a bomb like on the shows.
Fun times had by all.

Mark's creation


Mark has been creating a "roller coaster" and many many vehicles lately. His creation is a combination of Popsicle sticks, dowels pop lids and the special component is from Grandpa and Gramma's piano. Yes, that's right, even his teacher didn't believe him when he brought it into show and tell. They disassembled their piano. A box of the insides were given to Kaden and Mark for Christmas and there is many more where they came from. This has been hours of fun for Mark. I mean HOURS!!! Oh, don't get me wrong, this boy has had to learn the lesson the hard way how to use a hot glue gun (small finger burn once was enough to realize what "be careful" meant). He's is our aspiring architect I think.
Olympic Fans
Mark's school was lucky enough to have the flame come running right past the school yard. We all came out to cheer and watch. Everyone waved their flags and it was great fun.
We all watched regularly and with much spririt. Even the kids were excited and into it.


One of the local centers had a chart up posting all the medals as they were won. This was great to keep checking while I was working and showed the kids.


Valentines Day Fun

Ray and I celebrated by going out to the local Actor's Studio. It was a Christmas gift that we waited to enjoy with our choice of productions. The night was ON BROADWAY. It was AMAZING!!!!!

The kids enjoyed a gift that brought a smile to their faces...as they wanted to show you here!









I enjoyed a "love day" party at Kyla's school as well.
