Fall fun and Eva's birthday

http://s43.photobucket.com/user/AloraDanen/library/2013/Fall%20Firsts%20and%20Celebrations Pics from the last few months, including dance, soccer, school, and Eva's birthday. A number of these have been posted on Facebook, but some are new...

Pictures from Grandparent visits

Mostly pics of the kids eating... I guess that's mostly what they do! ;-) Thanks for all the visits, grandparents! :-)

You can tell it doesn't rain here very often...

Eva's preschool graduation

Not great pics or video, but here's a sample of what they did at
graduation. These two videos were the entire graduating classes (preK
through 1st), and these are the two songs they sang. Eva's class (3 and
4s alone) also sang two songs, but I didn't get those on video. Peter
was pretty squirmy (very very very squirmy) and Jon was out of town, so
it was a bit of a challenge!

Eva's in the front middle, greenish brown swirly dress.

Springtime pics!

Some springtime pics, although it was 90 degrees for a week, so some look like summer pics! :-)

Eva riding her bike.

Chicks and Chicks on Bikes!

http://s43.beta.photobucket.com/user/AloraDanen/library/2013/Chicks%20and%20Chicks%20on%20Bikes

New pics from the last two months. We got three chicks and we're planning on getting a few ducks a well in a few weeks to add to our flock! So far both kids love the chicks, and we've managed to not let Peter kill any, so I think we're doing pretty good! We also got a loaner two-wheeler that's a little smaller than Eva's Christmas bike, and after all her balance bike practice, she picked up biking right away. Took her about two minutes to be biking without training wheels, and soon after that she was even figuring out how to start on her own and get pedaling. Exciting! Once she grows just a little taller, she'll be ready to do her Christmas bike without training wheels.
