Dancing with the Stars

Phedora loves to dress up in her frilly Princess dresses and watch Dancing with the Stars with me. Last night we watched the dances from Monday night and they had a great time dancing along. Enjoy!

Hayden tying his shoes

Hayden has been learning how to tie his own shoes. While it takes a little bit of extra patience and planning he is doing really good at it.

Phedora's Idea of a good time.

The other afternoon this is what I found Phedora doing in the back yard. Of course Hayden wanted a turn at it as well.

Built up Aggression

Hayden has become very much into fighting. I hope that it is just a little phase that will pass but you never know. I decided that I was tired of him beating us all up so I got him a pillow. Both him and Phedora enjoyed beating up the pillow. We may need to get a punching bag for them.

Ostrich Festival Parade

While Tom, Peg and Dan were visiting with Adam we walked up the road to enjoy a parade. The weather was perfect though it would have been better had we been on the other side of the road. We were facing the sun. It was a short parade done in 50 minutes. But I guess since we were at the very beginning of it that made a difference.

They got balls at this parade.

Where's the candy?

Washington was representing in the parade with this car.

It reminded me of Cruella DeVil.

I love old firetrucks and the kids just love fire trucks.

Lizards

This is what happens when a lizard is found at preschool.

Let the fun begin!

We almost have moving dates! We are coming home! Though we will miss Arizona and all our great friends here, we will be happy to be back closer to our families and friends up there. We are hoping to have the movers here on April 8th or 9th and be back in Wa by the 14th or 15th!

So much to do and so little time though that always seems to be the case. It makes it stressful but I honestly don't think I would want it any different.

Dan is flying up to Wa on Monday to find us a new place to call home. Hopefully somewhere to call home for a few years. I am definitely ready to "settle down" All this moving, making friends and then moving again is starting to get to me. The kids are excited to go but the reality of moving never hits them until after the fact. They like to think that their friends will move with us. I wish that was how it worked :)

I will post more as I know more but the tentative moving date for now will probably be April 9th. Sounds good to us at least.

See you all sooner rather than later!
