Risa plays with the dinosaurs!

Risa took a trip back in time to the land of the dinosaurs! Her class went on a field trip to see the"Walking with the Dinosaurs" show that is currently traveling the country. I was a lucky parent that got to tag along. It was a really cool experience! The dinosaurs were HUGE! The kids loved the show! Everyone loved watching the dinosaurs "fight" to save their babies and defend their territories and went wild when the T-Rex came roaring out! The narrator was walking around with the dinosaurs so it gave us an idea of how truly magnificent these creatures were.

Tee ball has begun!!

Brandon is on his way to baseball stardom. Our switch hitting dude has begun his baseball career at the sweet age of 5. He hits off a tee, makes it to first, as he's running to 2nd he may get distracted and stop half way there. On the way to 3rd Brandon has to avoid the cluster of kids from the other team but zig zags his way through! Finally, he rounds third and makes it to home plate. Which he promptly stands on wondering where to go next! When Brandon is playing in the field... literally, playing... kicking dirt, talking to the other kids ... there are moments of brilliance as he joins the herd running after the ball. Yes, all 13 kids run after the ball each time it is hit! At least they understand someone has to get the ball back to the tee. Unless it is just a quick game of tag that has broken out and we just pretend they know to go after the ball! We remind ourselves that even Chipper Jones, ARod, Manny Ramirez and all of those other baseball dudes started this way. Go Dragons!!
