Monday was William's first day back to school in almost 3 weeks.   He was excited to show us the cards some of his classmates made for him.

William now has his costume-He is a Ninja!

Ready for a night of soccer!

William was excited to return to playing with his team!

William played a great game!

Emily tells this story: " Someone on the other team kicked the ball in front of our goal...

 and I went Kabam! and scored my first goal!"

There are so many butterflies!  They are migrating through and the kids tried to catch them on the beach and in our backyard.

Thank you Mimi for helping us this week!  William should return to school on Monday after almost 3 weeks out.

The girls are making Cowboy special dog cookies for his birthday!  William does not like the smell or taste of peanut butter so he stayed in the other room while the girls were cooking!

 Hannah and Emily taste test the peanut butter

 Rolling out the dough

Letting Cowboy have a sniff before the cookies go in the oven

 The girls want to see if Cowboy will lick the bowl...

Cowboy likes it!
