Westridge One Mile Race

Candace did such a great job in her first race. She didn't complain the entire time and had a surprisingly competitive attitude about it. I'm so proud of her for doing her best!

dressing up

Joshua loves to dress up. He takes it very seriously. I took a few pictures over about a week to show just how much he LOVES it. 
Joshua came out wearing Candace's sweater and her matching tights. I asked him what he was ....



Introducing ...... the Human Brain. We had gotten several books from the library on the human body (which he can't get enough of) and this is how they represented the brain. Each section was color coated to show the different lobes. So it really does look somewhat like the following picture. 


 A  ninja. This one is frightening. 


An injured tiger

Captain Jack Sparrow. 



This is the time of Captain Jack Sparrow. 
A pirate so brave, on the seven seas.
A magical quest to the aisle of Tortuga.
His raven black hair in the ocean breeze.

Zoo

We went to Hogle Zoo during Spring Break this week. 







The baby elephant, Zuri.





 Luke in his favorite spot, seriously.









These two rhinoceroses were making a huge fuss as they fought. They were eventually separated by their trainer. They put on quite the show. 









This tiger was also growling a lot and staying pretty close to the fence. We spent quite a few minutes with him at close range. 








 The really cool black ball by the entrance.
