Sylvia's Spring Piano Recital

Our sweetie after playing on Uncle Bob's Steinway

Sylvia being so cute!

Sylvia did a great job at her piano recital yesterday.  She played two pieces: Angry Alligator, and Slavic Dance.  Afterwards, we all got to enjoy treats at Bob and Penny's house.  We love getting to hear Sylvia play piano!

Henry Is One Cool Kid

Kelley's Grove

 Daddy and the kidlets

Something is very interesting right there 

What a cutie! 

 

Because Ben's a boy, he just HAS to sit in the water...

We love going up Hobble Creek Canyon during the Spring and Summer time to get away from the heat.  Last weekend was a perfect time - it was hot, and the kids needed to get out and run around.  Kelley's Grove is the perfect spot!  It is shallow enough for toddlers to play in, and there is a shady grassy area good for mommies that don't feel like getting wet.  There is even a deer trail close to the water, so sometimes you get up close and personal with Bambi, which can be very exciting. Besides losing Sylvia's flip flop in the water, we had lots of fun :)

"Take my picture, Mom!" 

He was pretty close to being finished with his masterpiece here. 

Ben was so happy that Henry came today :)
