Autumn Sweetheart

Autumn and Joey [no, not her brother] went to the Sweethearts Dance tonight. They looks SO CUTE!!! Autumn was dressed like the roaring 20s. Leave it to her to do something different and creative. 

Opa's 80th

Cody made this special card just for Opa. It's Cody, Oma and Opa and a birthday cake.

Cody and Mom made a fun banner for Opa. He was surprised. All his guest wrote him love notes all over the blank spaces.

Mom and Cody had fun eating cake and playing with the camera. Silly Gooses!

"Opa teases with love" and Cody tells himself that every day he goes to see him ... a couple times a week. We had a ton of fun seeing him at his HUGE Birthday party.  

Happy Birthday Opa!

Valentine's Party

When kids make cookies. Yum.... I think.

Cody's LOVES when his Mom comes to school with him.

Very proud of his creation! Then he EATS it.

Great job Codes!

The boys made their Valentine bags into red rockets. Of course they did.

I had fun volunteering for Cody's Valentines Party this year. What a darling group of kids. We made cookies, played games, made crafts and sang songs! Cody made himself a cookie and quickly ate it. Then he made one for Shawn. He carefully decorated it, wrapped it in a napkin, put it in a baggy and then threw it in his book bag. Shawn graciously ate it with appropriate "mmmmm" sounds.

Shawn Can Really Play!

I'm so proud of my Shawn. He plays the piano so well. A bit grim today ... but usually very uplifting. he-he!
