Happy Cinco de Mayo!!

Today we read Cinco de Mayo books to learn some facts about the holiday.  Then we made these cute little Mexican Flags.  Ask your child what they learned...I did, and they told me some very interesting facts (parades, colorful clothing, Mexican food, sombreros, to name a few)!!

Earth Day

We recycle; we recycle.
Yes, we do! Yes, we do!
We care for our planet; we care for our planet.
You should too; you should too.

A Visit to the Horse

Today we went over to Nanie's house to visit her horse, Jazz.  We had a great time learning about the behavior of a horse (what his ears can tell us), the parts of a horse (mane, tail, horse shoes, etc), how to brush him (using different types of brushes), how to feed him (two types of hay), and so much more...it was very informative and FUN for all of us!

Happy 4th Birthday Cash!!  Thank you for sharing those yummy birthday cupcakes.  Have a very Happy Birthday!!!

Hoppy Easter...From the Bunny

Today we had a surprise visit from the Easter Bunny.  We were in the middle of an egg hunt and she walked right into the backyard to join us...then she even hid some more eggs for us to find.  And since the Easter Bunny is so nice, she gave each of us our very own bubbles.  Happy Easter everyone!!

Ready, set, GO!!  Just for fun, we had a little Easter Egg hunt...and as you can see from the picture the kids had so much fun.  What a beautiful Spring day. 

Field Trip to the Phoenix Zoo

Today we went on a field trip to the Phoenix Zoo...it's March so it was a beautiful, crowded day at the zoo! We got to see the giraffes, zebras, monkeys, and orangutans. And since it's Spring, no trip to the zoo would be complete without seeing some baby ducks. Thanks for a fun day at the zoo.
