The boys made green eggs for breakfast!

We went to the Orlando Chidren's Theater to see Charlotte's Web for Ashton's fieldtrip (which happened to be on Carson's birthday)

Carson's 4th birthday.  We decided to celebrate with a short camping trip at Fort Wilderness!  Thanks to our buddy Matt for loaning us his pop-up for the weekend!

Happy Easter!

Hanging out in the pool!

Each month at Lost Lake Elementary the teachers select one student from the class that exemplifies the word of the month.  The word of the month for March was Tolerance and Mrs. Summers selected Ashton as the student in her kindergarten class to receive this honor.  Here he is receiving his certifiate from the principal.

Ashton's first dentist visit...Carson is performing the initial exam.

Clean bill of health!  The dentist was very impressed with how well Ashton takes care of his teeth.  And the hygenist wished that all of the kids she sees could be as well behaved as Ashton!

Ashton received a REAL police badge from a family friend who is a retired NY State Trooper.  He is now convinced that he is a REAL police officer and doesn't understand why the kids at school don't believe him.

No Training Wheels!

While at grandma and grandpa's camper one day, Ashton decided he didn't need training wheels anymore.  So, Tony took them off and let him go.  Without any help from anyone he just took off like he'd been riding without training wheels all his life!

Doin' the Polka!

The Petting Zoo - August 2011

It was a rainy morning at the cabin, so the girls decided to check out the petting zoo in Nelson while the boys went to the shed to shoot guns.

Ride 'em cowgirl!
