malloy's lilttle cardinal's dance recital!! she was beyond excited to dance on stage!!! it was a cute show!!

malloy FINALLY got picked to do the morning annoucements at morning meeting. she got to announce the date :)

one weekend, malloy sat for hours coloring and making up a game. when she was done, we played it. the object of the game was to have the 2 crabs to race to different points in the game and the winner gets a prize. whoever has the most prizes wins!!

rex wanted a picture too

we went and got mcdonalds with grandma val and then went to the park. while we were eating lunch, rex was walking around while eating and fell off a concrete ledge, scraping his knee pretty bad. we didn't even get to play on the playround. grandma bought some bactine and then we went and played on our school playground for a bit!

after the tball game we went garage saling with grandma val and grandpa don for newark valley garage sale days. it was hot so we went to grandma val's and played in the little blow up pool! daddy was sick so he needed to rest, we ended up eating dinner there, too! with grandma and grandpa's kindles of course.

finally made dentist appointments for the kids. while we were there, malloy got her loose tooth pulled. she was so excited! she wore her tooth on a necklace the entire day at school and showed everyone she could! she wanted to keep her tooth, so she wrote a note explaining that to the tooth fairy.

rex LOVES books. he will sit for an hour straight and just flip through the pages. love this kid!!!

rex earned all his stars at school so he was allowed to play video games after school. he was elated! video games are few and far between in this house!

just some saturday morning coloring with some tunes.

we were at the park and rex came over all wet and was wiping his mouth and face. he said a mushroom sprayed him when he poked it. wellll, it was a toad, not a mushroom!!! gross!!!!

we had a fun bbq at grandpa gary's house. he hid prizes out in the paths and had the kids hunt for them! the got lots of prizes and some money!

on memorial day, we went to world's end state park in pennsylvania with grandpa gary, melissa, uncle ryan, aunt kari, bella, and addy. after we went to visit some graves, we went to the park and we ate lunch, played in the creek, swam in the water hole, and then went for ice cream. such a fun day!

malloy's class put on a play for the school. they did a friday night performance for family! roro and papa, grandpa don, grandpa gary, and melissa all came to watch! she LOVES being the center of attention and did a great job!
