Take Me out to the Ball Game

 Spring was very welcomed this year after a very windy winter season. Our physical education has benefited from the warm weather as we are able to take our activities out side. Baseball has been family time this spring as we are all helping B to practice and get ready for his baseball games this year. He is really excited to be on a baseball team this year.  Being on this baseball team has helped B with a number of different subjects. It has helped him learn about levers, got him active for P.E., and help him fulfill a cub requirement to get a new badge.

Just Dance

This year Mother Earth through us a surprise snow storm during our dance recital. M, B and W all performed this year. B and W both did clogging numbers and M did her ballet agian this year. They all did wonderfully, and I was so proud of them all.


Caterpiller Collection Store

After earning caterpillar coins for along time it was time to visit the store and spend our coins. There were lots of things to choose from. Items included: Swim Lesson and a new towel certificate, bouncy balls, art project, airplane flyers, mirrors, colouring books, and Lego Hero building sets. The kids had the opportunity to count  their coins, and then had to figure out what they could afford to purchase now or if they had to do more reading and kind deeds to earn more coins.

Kub Kar Time

Building a car using a simple machine is ever more fun when you get to race it with your friends. B had lots of fun with is dad and uncle designing and building his Kub Kar this year. It was designed after the transformer Optimus Prime. They pay attention to every small detail, but in order for it to be light enough to race, some accessories had to be removed, and the under side had to be hollowed out.



B's Kar wasn't the fastest, but in my books it had the best design, and looked the coolest. His Kub Kar is #13

Christmas Time

The family enjoys the holidays with family and friends while celebrating the birth of our Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ. It's a time to gather to make memories, sing songs, and put on concerts. It brings joy to our hearts to give service to others at this time in our live that the world takes to think more about others then we do about ourselves.

Space Monsters

Learning how to make Birthday Cupcakes is definitely a life skill that everyone should have. These are not nutritious, but every cute and fun to make.
You have to be careful though because you might turn into a space monsters after you eat one like Little G.

Surfs Up!

Social studies can be a slash. Taking in one of Alberta's most famous tourist attractions in the capital city at the West Edmonton Water Park. 

Ice Skills

Taking to the ice, and learning how to skate for M and W was one of our Physical Education highlights this year. B worked hard on honing his previously learned skills and a great time was had by all. Little G even had a try on the slippery surface.

Halloween

 Dressing up and running around for candy is always fun, especially if you get to do it with friends and family. Here are just a few snap shots of that fun day in 2011.
