The latest goings on . . .

This picture is supposed to be down by the play pictures.

Lyssa has been such a huge helper while Ky has been disabled. We're trying to do special things for her so she knows how appreciated she is. I told her she could have a friend come over after school Friday (yesterday) and have a late night. She has so many good friends that she couldn't decide. She had a list of 10 "best" friends, but we narrowed it down to 6 (1 couldn't make it and 1 had to leave early). They had a great time, and of course had to end it with make-overs, a scarf fashion show and modeling pics! What a bunch of cuties (all are my students).

So cute, I had to put it on here again! (no, but I'm tired and don't want to fix anything). :)

More egg painting. Lyssa looks upset, but really she's just pondering her next artistic endeavor. TJay is suprisingly competitive with his egg coloring. :) jk. You can tell he has artistic talent, even with eggs!

This is our favorite "little baby brother that doesn't live with us". He is getting so big & is so cute! We love it when we get to babysit this boy. Ky misses being able to stand up and hold him, but that time will come again. Aren't they so cute!?

The artists at work!

Easter is always serious business at our house. Each person gets their own dozen eggs to color and they LOVE it!

We had hero day at school (and hat day) and Treyson got to meet a hero: a fireman! Trey loves firemen and wants to be one when he gets big. He was mesmerized by the firetruck and equipment and meeting a real fireman. When I told him his uncle used to be one, he was amazed. :)

This is Kylie getting her cast on her leg . . . she broke her leg on March 16 trying to save her Daddy. His motorcycle fell off the truck (so did he) when the ramp safety latch failed. She saw her Daddy fall and then the motorcycle fall toward him and she ran to help him out (she hadn't been riding, just doing homework). The motorcycle fell on its side, right on her leg. She broke her tibia & fibula - one a bow fracture and the other bone was up her growth plate. She was super close to surgery, but luckily didn't have to have it and ended up healing quite well. (Now she is in an air-cast walking boot).

Kylie decided to go for the crazy pipi-longstocking-esque crazy hair!

Alyssa showing her style with crazy hair day . . . Treyson with his favorite crazy hair: mohawk! (don't ask me why we let his hair get that long, but it is very cute. And his favorite color green is in his hair.)

Treyson starred as "the cutest" (according to me) Spartan warrior in the school play. He loved being in the play and it was so cute to watch him mouth all of the words that every character said in the entire show. He was excited for his family to watch. He was happy that his Grandma & Grandpa & Aunt Robyn could come see him. He was THRILLED that his "baby brother that doesn't live with me" - Justin - was going to watch him. In fact, Justin came to see the show twice!

(This is where the top picture should be)

Kylie decided this year that she'd like to see the "other" side of a performance and was on the costume crew. That's probably a good thing, since she broke her leg the week of the performance and did hair while sitting, crutches always by her side. (Aphrodite is a student in my class.)

Alyssa was in her class play during the midevil festival. She wore her Easter dress and was the loviest narrator in the land!
