Alex Who?

Well, it appears that Alex has lost interest in writing this blog- at least for now. I really don't blame her, she has a lot going on right now- with all the GROWING and stuff. (I cannot keep that child in clothes. I just bought her size 6 ballet shoes.... 2 months ago I bought her size 4!!!) SO, the responsibility of keeping everyone up to date on our exciting bunch falls to me. And since I am tired and don't have much to say I will just post pictures from the parade yesterday... in which Ethan did in fact ride on the float! I think the fact that it was pulled by a John Deere tractor had a lot to do with it!

Did I tell you that Hudson & Justin are out of this world?

More Storytelling....

Mom here again.... Alex talked about going to a board meeting to receive recognition for her storytelling her May 3rd post. You can read more about it here http://accelerateu.org/districts/bloomfieldcsd/Other/index.cfm?&SessionID=2734&ActivityID=8251

Curriculum Fair

Me and Hudson had a Curriculum Fair on May 16 and that was the day I had my precorder concert. (Editor's note: A precorder is a smaller recorder, aka a flute-a-phone.) Here I am with my mask from art class. It had to have at least one horn. (Mine is the purplish one with a light salmon nose and 2 feathers on the horns.) Hudson did some research on ants in the deciduous forest, and he made 2 clay things in art class. One was a monkey. You can kind of see it in the corner of the picture here.

Miss Williams Goes to Washington

Melissa,Hudson and me,Alex are now in front of the Linlcon Memorial.

Now every one who came to D.C. with us is here except Aunt Kristin and my mom (who is taking the picture). (Editors note: Harrison is missing form the picture too.)

Right now I'm close to the Washington Memorial and pool.
the water behind me is not the reflecting pool.

Hudson,Melissa and me are in front of the White House.

Here I'm in front of the

veterans wall with my almost gone coke.

Wednesday Afternoon.... just a usual day

Hi all! Alex here. Today an author came to our school, her name is Cynthia DeFelice. We are reading a book she wrote in school called Under The Same Sky. Another one of my ballet performance is coming up, its called,"To Paint A Dream." If you can't see it I'll send you a video of it. Did you all know my dog can play soccer? She's real good at it but, she's got to learn to play with her arms and legs and not her teeth! Today I'm also going to a board meeting for story telling. Right now its time to eat dinner, yum noodles and sausage!

Today Ethan said....

Yesterday he said he wasn't going to kindergarten....but today he informed his father that he wants to go to college!

Storyteller, Wizards & Batman Pancakes

Hi all. Sarah here. Alex has granted me permission to write on "her" blog. She wanted me to let everyone know that you can read about her storytelling experience at http://accelerateu.org/districts/bloomfieldCSD/bloomfieldElem/index.cfm?&SessionID=2663&ActivityID=8244 (And in case any one you were wondering- the other little dark haired girl is Grif Steppenbeck's daughter Emma. Remember Grif?)

Here are some more recent pictures ....kids playing Wizards


This is Hudson's Batman Pancake.....yummy (Justin IS an artist!)


And finally, Ethan modeling the latest in memorial Day Float headgear (and an orange Cheeto smile)...


Speaking of Ethan, this morning he said in his grumpy voice, "I'm NOT going to coffee. I'm NOT going to kindergarten and I'm NOT riding on the FLOAT!"
