Let the activities begin...

If starting school wasn't enough to make me feel like we are always on the go, we decided to throw in some organized activities as well.  Ellie has begun Religious Education at church and is back at dance.  She is loving dance more than ever and puts on shows for us in her designated spot light stage, aka the entryway.  Jack is doing swimming and soccer.  He loves soccer and is doing awesome, we just need to work on getting him more aggressive with going after the ball. However; he dreads swimming, we don't talk about going to swimming the way we talk about going to soccer.  He does everything his swim coach tells him to do and when we are leaving he talks about it being fun.  Not sure why the fear sets in before the lesson or talking about swim lessons.

Young Chef's Academy Open House







Dancing Queen

Ready for her 1st dance lesson!

Love to see that smile over something I enjoyed too!





Jack has been trying for a blue ninja for a while now at the
 quarter machines and it's become somewhat of a challenge for us.
When it became all he talked about we called in a favor and the Douglas
family came through big time! He tells anyone that will talk to him
about his blue ninjas that came in the mail.

Our Soccer Star!







He wasn't a fan of the water breaks he wanted to get back out there
As we were leaving he said, "when do I get to do that again?!"


Riding the train at Clovis Fest.
We walked around scoping everything out,
and after contemplating jump houses, carnival rides,
food or the train they chose a train ride.
They were happy, it was a crazy train ride!


Clovis Fest Hot Air Balloon Fun Fly

We got up before the sun for this adventure.

Jack was a little cautious about getting too close to the balloons.



I believe her comment was,"I can't believe this!"







Jack's favorite was the Remax balloon.


Ellie's favorite was the pink, yellow and blue one.

There was 9 Hot Air Balloons total, it was pretty amazing.

Well worth the early wake up call!
