SPRING AT LAST

We are all so happy that Spring is finally here. We still have some cold days where it is too cold to play outside, but we are able to get out some. We are seeing the proof that Spring is here by seeing the flowers bloom on our yellow bell bush and on our bradford pear tree. It was so pretty one day, we had school outside. The kids also got some exercise, so we considered that recess. We even went for a walk.

FINALLY WARM ENOUGH TO PLAY OUTSIDE

It was a beautiful day Monday, so I let the kids play outside for most of the day. They had so much fun. Olivia loves to rake the leaves, but Isaac loves to jump in them. It drives her crazy because he messes up her clean pile. They also tried to play hide and seek as you can probably tell by the pictures of them counting by the tree. The problem was that Isaac would always hide in the same place and he couldn't be quiet enough. She always knew where he was before she got through counting.

CHINESE NEW YEAR

The Chinese New Year celebration started on February 14 this year. We had a celebration in Tupelo with other adoptive families. Here are a few pictures from our event. You can see that Isaac thought the music was too loud and was not very excited about doing the dragon dance with the other children.
