Notice the beautiful scenery

ignore the garbage.

We were at the dump. Picking stuff up. Because that's the kind of thing we (meaning Ray) do.

Just Chillin' at the Library

Eda was cold

but she forgot her jacket. So Ray lent her his.

Watching the Action

Easter

I know it was a while ago. But look how cute they are with their Easter baskets. And, no, they weren't reused from Halloween.

Eda really wanted an Easter basket. Kmart was going out of business at the end of March. We were wandering around to see if anything was actually a good deal and Eda saw Easter stuff. It wasn't on sale, since Easter hadn't happened yet. The baskets definitely weren't a good deal, so we said no, and kept wandering. Until we came to the leftover Halloween stuff. Eda grabbed a pumpkin bucket and said, "I'd be okay with this for an Easter basket." So Ray looked at the price: 29 cents each.

And they had their Easter baskets.

We have a graduate!

From kindergarten, that is. Here's the entire class:

Yep, Eda was the only kindergartner. And she did have two teachers. But she was also in class with first, second, third, fourth, and fifth graders. Which brought the number up to 12. And there weren't two teachers the entire year. There was a shakeup mid year that changed positions so technically she had each teacher for half the year. As did Ruby and Cora.

Ready to dance!

If I can figure out how, I will post a video of the girls' dance on my video blog. Right now it is telling me the file is too big, so we'll have to see if I can find the time and the means to make it smaller.

On another note, I'm finding I have a lot more pictures of Trudy than the other girls. That may have something to do with spending all day with Trudy and just the crazy-after-school time with the other girls. But, I'm making this note to myself that I should try to take more pictures of all my children.
