Spring Activities

This post is to catch up on all the stuff we have done over the past couple months that I forgot about.


We took a day trip to New York City. We like to eat in Little Italy, eat cupcakes at the Magnolia Bakery, play at the park, and, most of all, chase pigeons. Unless we have guests, we do the exact same things on every trip. The pigeon chasing was especially good this trip. Luke is becoming an expert pigeon chaser. He has become so adept at pigeon chasing that he is expanding his chasing to include all birds and even squirels. Others in NYC think that we are a little crazy, but as the video shows, Luke has been able to recruit a few other kids to his pigeon chasing club.



We also celebrated Callie's birthday. Since we were leaving for Disneyworld the next day, she had a small party at Chuck E. Cheese's with her two best friends. They had a blast.




On May 11th Callie was baptized. Papa and Susan made the trip all the way from Idaho for this special occasion. It was a great day.



Luke loves outdoor activities. He has taught himself to rollerblade, skateboard, and ride a scooter. He is amazing.

Ruth and Luke went on a recent field trip with Callie's 2nd grade class. Luke made a new friend; it appears that they found something good to sniff in this picture.

I think every boy needs at least one picture of himself flexing in his underwear. I think it is a natural instict for boys. (We won't post the one Jason made us take of him this morning.) Luke is pretty proud of his big boy undies.

Callie is playing both soccer and softball this spring. (Luke insisted on wearing the sticker on his nose.)
