April Happenigs

I usually feel the urge to blog when I've finally down/uploaded photos (I forget if it's downloading or uploading). Here's some from April.

Konrad's Fifth Birthday

Konrad turned 5. We had a lovely birthday party with some boys. They made some crafty fish, played a couple fishing games and ate a fish cake (or a cake decorated like a fish). It was a fun day.





THE RACE

And then... what do most families do with their children on a Friday night? Hmm.... rent a movie, perhaps a bike ride, play a game, have a BBQ. We introduced our children to horse racing. Our horse -Noble Robin, won!!!




This was actually my first time at the horsetrack, too. My co-worker, Susan (in the pink sweater) owns Noble Robin and her boyfriend, Guy Gravelle, trains harness racers. In the spirit of 'pink', I wore a pink shirt, too. The horse was pretty wired after the race and the kids were afraid to get too close for a picture. We also had a picture taken with the professional photographer and there was fear in the children's faces. It was fun... and she won!

THE TREE

I love our pine tree. It is beautiful but it is also half dead. So, Eric decided to have some treeclimbers come and take it down. Sad, but it had to be done. Konrad was in the mix of course, helping Daddy stack the wood and clean up.


His sunglasses are a nice touch.



The End of the Day
