Family Pictures

We hadn't had a family picture taken at a studio since Audrey was 6 months old, so I thought it was time.  I'm so glad we had them done!






Super Hero!

All of the 2nd grade students at Owen's school just finished a unit studying super heroes.  They talked about real life heroes and what makes a hero.  To culminate the unit, each child got to become their own superhero.  Owen chose to base his off of one of his favorite animals, the pergrine falcon.  Falcon Man's motto:  "It is better to attack from the sky than from the ground."  He can speak all animal languages, can dive at over 200 mph and rescues endangered animals.  They had a parade at school yesterday and today our whole family participated in the "Super Hero 5K"
Flapping his wings- he designed and made the mask, talons, logo and the inside feathers of his wings- it was a fun project!

With his buddy, "Pet Man"

Pinterest is a wonderful, evil thing- grateful for the idea but much more involved than I planned!

Lots of 2nd graders showed up for the race

Our whole family participated in the race- Owen and Erik completed the 5K in 40 minutes.

Pirate Parrot was there to cheer everybody on!

Great job, Owen!!

Elaina decorated some adorable bunny cupcakes for us!

Our neighborhood does an egg hunt with a visit from the big bunny.
