Eryn's Lunchbox

Eryn was asked to write about her perfect lunch. This is a scan of her lunchbox.

In case you can't read the picture, it says, "My idea of a perfect lunch is Shirimp, Fish, Crab, sushi and cramboola. Cramboola is good because it has cream and cooked sugar and it is crunchy! I like shirimp with the shirmp sauce!

Cramboola is Creme Brulee

I thought what 1st grader would ever think that the perfect lunch is sea food and creme brulee. I love her imagination!

Our Month in Review

March came and went with all that was going on and my overall laziness the blog went on the back burner.

Payton and Eryn both played in the music festival this month and both received SUPERIORS for their two memorized pieces. They worked really hard and so did their mother, I'm thinking earplugs might be a worthwhile investment.

Payton and Eryn played in Young at Art. It is a talent show at the school. It is actually a pretty big production it is held at Century High and over 80 students participate. They both played the piano.

We all went to the DNCFR Rodeo one of our favorite family traditions. We start the week out at the library where we meet Rodeo Queens they read and sign autographs, we go to the rodeo breakfast and then we go to the rodeo. This is one of Eryn's yearly highlights, having a healthy dose of Wallentine blood in her.

Payton has been playing Jr. Jazz and loves it. He is the most non-competitive player I know. He doesn't care if he shoots a basket or not, he will almost always pass the ball to someone else unless we are yelling at him to shoot. The last game of the season they let Eryn play and Payton was always quick to give the ball to his sis. so she could have a chance to shoot. He, at times, is a very considerate brother.

Easter was great this year! Every year my cousin Natalie invites us all up for and Easter egg hunt at her house. They stuff lots of eggs with tons of candy.

Macy, Payton, Tanner and Lexi

On Easter Sunday I made Easter brunch crepes with homemade pudding, strawberries, bananas and homemade, ghiradelli hot fudge sauce. We then dyed Easter eggs and went to church. (we have the dreaded 1-4 time). After we went to Michael's mom's and had Easter dinner.

The Easter Outfits. I am a mean mom, we do not do Easter Baskets. They get an Outfit and a book. Payton has been reading Spiderwick Chronicles and Eryn got a fairy book.

We had spring break last week and we had a great vacation we cleaned. The kids went roller skating, we painted ceramics and went and saw Nana.

This is a summary of our month. Not to mention activity days, piano and tennis lessons, school and other various activities.
