Mom's Tea

Max's school (Jacob's Ladder) has a mom's tea each year.  It is always exciting and has so many things to do it's hard to do it all in one night.  The theme was "A passport around the world" where we went to the different continents and made crafts in each.  Here's a few pics-

In Africa-

 This is Lyla's good friend Allie.

 Making noodle/bead necklaces.

 All done! She did a great job and wanted to give it to mom.

 When in Europe we visited to Michelangelo area where we painted upside down.

 In England making tea towels.

 Enjoying a nice rice pudding in Asia.

They put on a great mom's night!

February, was an exciting month!

While Lyla went to Kansas City for her doctor's appointment, Max and Keeko had a day to themselves!  And what kind of trouble did they get into?  Well Max was able to choose what he wanted to do which was to see Jeremy at work, and then Keeko surprised him with a trip to a skateboard shop.

Max wanted to be a photographer for the day, here are some of his shots-

He sure has an eye, doesn't he? :) Then they got a nice picture together.

After we went to the skateboard shop and then went to the play area in the mall, boy was he ecstatic to have skateboards all around him!

 Of course they had to stop for candy!

 Lyla and Max LOVE the "sleep sheep"!

 And last but not least, he had to ride the speed boat.

It was a very fun day, and of course he is wondering when we can go to the skateboard shop again before we even left the mall :)
