Swimming Lessons

On our way to swim lessons!  Both kids without training wheels.  It's so amazing to go on a (slow) bike ride with the whole family!

The kids just finished two weeks of swimming lessons.  They had different teachers at different times, so we spent quite a bit of time at the pool.  It was a fun summer activity for them and got us out of the house in the morning.

Oliver helped "save" his swim teacher with the pool noodle.

Last Day for Brooke

Brooke also had her last day of preschool.

Each kid gets to put their name up on the tree.

Brooke was flag holder today.  She was pretty proud that she had a special job!

Then it was time to go outside and play!

Last Day of Preschool!

Today was the preschool's "field day" and the last day of the year!  The day started off with a little play-doh.

Followed by time with the teacher writing names on a get-well card for their former teacher.

Maisy (the only girl in the class and our neighbor) and Oliver are great friends.

Brody held the flag and everyone sang their flag song.

Then it was time to play outside!

And a fun game with water and sponges.

And when all the excitement was over, it was time for a long break on the chair.  What a day!

Happy 4th Birthday Oliver!

It's hard to believe Oliver is four years old!  How much he has changed in the last year.  He is becoming such a wonderful, joyful, hilarious little guy!

Oliver has lots of fun with his friend Evan.  They play like "boys" together, making sound effects constantly.  They both love Legos and boy toys!

Evan's older sister is a few years older than Brooke, but is a great friend!

Here are the kids at the party!  Lots of wonderful friends!

Legos have definitely been the addition to our lives this year.  They have provided endless creative fun!

Four years of Oliver!

Easter

Easter day was beautiful!  We love driving to church and getting to see this view!

The kids enjoyed the annual Easter egg hunt at church.

As close to a "picture together" as we could today!

Windy Day!

It was super windy today!  Gusts of 35+, but we still tried to get outside for some kind of activity.  Before we left for the park the kids played in the garden.

We brought our friends Riley and Cora and Pennie brought Maisy and Louise.  The fun didn't last long with the crazy wind!
