Happiness

Mother's Day 2018.  The kids got me these flowers and willingly took a picture with their mother ;) Katherine and Jonathan fixed alfredo and Katherine set the table and made it look so nice with her paper flower napkins.

 Lauren made this card...
 Hudson gave me this card....Be Good he says...haha
 And Katherine made this cute card.
 The dogs felt left out of the Mother's Day picture so we took one more ;)
Lauren and Shadow
 Yoyo and Winter are growing up so fast!
 Little Phinheas and Lauren...she was so happy holding this baby!

 One of my best friends here had her first baby!! Congratulations to Daniel and Hillary!
 I had a hard time imagining this little baby inside all of these blankets! It's 95 degrees outside!
 such a sweet face! Rei Qian or Joseph :)
 Regan got to hold the baby, too! The hospital sign said no children 18 and under allowed....but Hillary said that she looks like an adult. haha
 Look at those tiny feet.
 I am so happy :)

 The pet shop next to Benjamin's guitar class had a cat with little kittens.  Jonathan said they look like rats...haha.
 Just in case you want to protect your eyes from the screen time...hmmmm.
 The Littles (as I call them) studying clothing. I think they had fun. Anna
 Mandy
 Peter
 Emma

 This look.  I get this look often from this girl when she reminds me how "not little" she is anymore ;)
 pizza class....good to get to know this mother and daughter!
 This kid is doing awesome in his swim class!  He can now swim the length of the pool without any help! Go Hudson!
 Regan had a black belt performance. She did great!  I only have the video though.  I snapped this picture as she was walking to the center.
 Katherine decided to draw our family :) so cute!
 Hudson having class.
 Katherine had an artistic wave come over her and just went to town one day.  She had some really great ideas.
 Christmas tree anyone?
 Hudson decided this week that it was time to learn how to ride his bike without training wheels.  He can go a short distance, but gets a little scared.  He is determined to keep trying. Yeah!
 Pretty moon. Pretty sunset.
 Hudson's coach gave him a certificate for swimming across the pool!
 So the pool in the complex opened today for an "event"  They released tons of fish in the swimming pool for everyone to try and catch!
 The kids had a blast!
 And these were not gold fish!  These guys were huge!
 And these smiles are huge!
 They caught 10 altogether!
 We gave 3 away, cooked 2, and still have 5 that we are trying to figure out what to do with them.
 I love this.  Regan was helping Hudson with his belt before his VERY FIRST belt test!!  He was SOOOOOO excited!

He did great! He passed the test!! He's never been so excited.  WE celebrated with ice cream afterwards.
