Soccer X's 2





Courtney and Alex are both involved with soccer this spring. Having two playing keeps us very busy, because they don't always play on the same night. It's great to go to the fields and watch them play hard. I have to say it feels like it is the fall season because the weather has really not cooperated much. Oh well they have fun and come home tired! They both are very talented and enjoy playing. Courtney plays in the 10 and under category so it resembles more of what a soccer game should look like. She plays defense and offense and has even managed to score 3 goals already. Alex is in the 5-6 category and plays with 4 people on the field. In his age group you always know where the ball is because that is where all the kids are. He has at least 10 goals this season and is very proud of himself!! He loves the sport (all sports really) and it is a great way to use his energy!

Piano recital



Courtney has been taking piano lessons for 2 years now and loves it. She had her end of the year piano recital in May as well and did a fantastic job! Performing in front of people is really not her strength, but every time she has to do it she comes through with flying colors!! We are very proud of her talents and accomplishments!!

Very Busy Month of May

May finds us coming to the end of the school year!! The kids are excited for summer break, but before that there is always many things that take place. The first things were Courtney and Alex had entertainment days.


Courtney was part of a jungle music skit on Friday night and Alex was a part of nursery rhymes on Sunday. Courtney did a wonderful job with her speaking parts and danced and sang well too! One of her songs was called Ants in my pants. It was very funny and she did a great job doing the actions! She is right in the front next to the girl in the white shirt (just in cast you can't find her:)


Alex also was on stage with his class hamming it up!! I'm serious Colin and I couldn't believe him up there he was hilarious!! He definetly didn't have any stage fright. He was Jack be nimble and he jumped over a candle stick and he was Jack in Jack and Jill and then he got to "rock out" on ole king cole. He played a blow up guitar and let me tell you he has some serious moves!! Here he is "dancing" with some of his classmates.
~~~Stay tuned for more talent~~~
