Globetrotters!

Tonight we took the boys to see the Harlem Globetrotters at the US Cellular Center! To our surprise, one of the people that works with the team came over to us and asked if we wanted better seats and the boys obviously said yes! So, we got to sit on the bench with the team and we had to walk onto the court and high five all of the players. They announced our name as we walked across the court! The boys even got to dance on the basketball court a couple of times. It was a great show and an awesome time watching our two boys laugh and have fun! It was definitely a night to remember!!!

Conner the Artist...

Conner's artwork was chosen to be on display at a local park! We went to a little reception tonight debuting all of the artwork from our school. The Art teacher chose some pieces from each grade level. Conner was so proud that his was chosen! It was fun to see him in the spotlight tonight! He is becoming quite the artist and I frequently find him drawing pictures of racecars and tornadoes!!!

5th Grade Concert!


Tonight Conner and Ben had their last elementary school music and art show! The class performed the musical "We Haz Jazz!" Our boys did an amazing job performing. First, we got to see the art they have done this year. Then, we had a front row seat for the musical. Conner and Ben both had speaking parts and were the Dorsey Brothers (jazz musicians!) They did a great job singing, dancing, speaking, and smiling! It was very fun to watch!
