Week in Review...

Ashlyns caterpillar became a butterfly! Yea! She named it Elsa and then we set her free. It was such a neat experience being able to see the different stages of the caterpillar!

Jacob came home with this drawing that he did of George Washington, I thought it was adorable. I believe the big triangles are supposed to be his white hair.

Rick got an early birthday present from his parents, a new suit! Hopefully he'll be putting this to good use soon with some great interviews!

We checked out a new park this last weekend, it's right outside of the Cubs new Spring training stadium. It's amazing, it has a splash pad, zip line and tons of climbing structures, playgrounds, walking trails, fountains and even a lake! The kids loved it!

Abby had fun hanging out with me in the shade.

Haley had New Beginnings on Wednesday and she had a solo part in the song, I will try and get the video for it.

 I love this picture~ it looks like she's taking a selfie! Hilarious!

 I made lemon meringue pie for Rick when I was off of my challenge, which by the way I am back on! yea! It was delish!

 Rick took the kids to the train park a few weeks ago...

 The kids discovered that there are kids living kiddie-corner from us and so they talk to each other over the fence, so cute!
