Diego won his school's coloring contest! He has really loved coloring the last few weeks and has gotten pretty good at it. As a prize he got new crayons and a bubble wand. Good job Diego!

Lowry Preschool and Coloring Contest
Diego's last day of Lowry Preschool was today. He enjoyed the time he was there- Jan. - May. His teachers were Ms. Joan and Ms. Wendy. There were several kids from church in his class, so he already knew most of the other students.
Santa Fe- May 2014
Cesar and I went on vacation without the children! We went to Santa Fe and were gone 3 nights and 4 days. It was great!
Thanks so much to my mom for taking care of the kids the whole time! We are so grateful she was willing and able.

We sat by the hotel pool and relaxed. We also enjoyed the hot tub and swimming.
These wind sculptures were fun to watch.
This is the hotel we stayed at
This was outside the Roxanne Swentzell gallery. She is an artist that we just learned about.

CREEK KID
Eli was the Creek Kid of the week in Ms. Cindy's class a few weeks ago.
C -compassion
R- respect
E- Engaged
E- empathetic
K- kindness
Ruby and I went to the Creek Kid assembly to see Eli get recognized. His teacher asked the other kids in his class to tell what they like about Eli and this is what they said
" he is a kind friend, includes others, is funny, engaged, and empathetic and he plays with everyone who wants to play."
His teacher pointed out how great it is that he plays with so many different friends!
I'm proud of him!
Spring Break 2014
We had a nice Spring Break. I'm glad Eli goes to all day kindergarten, but it was nice to have him home all week. He was really looking forward to playing more at home.
Sat: Eli and I went to one of his friend's birthday party together. Cesar stayed home with Diego and Ruby. The party was at a very fun indoor pool in Arvada- the Apex Center. There were 2 water slides that we both liked going down.
Sun: My 35th birthday! We went to my parent's for dinner and had a nice time at church in the morning.
Mon: We went to IKEA. The boys got to play in the kid play area while Ruby and I looked around. Then we ate hot dogs and pizza there.
Tues: We went on a picnic at Central Park. We even took our picnic basket- Cesar and I got it for our wedding and I think this was only the 2nd time we used it. It was fun!
Wed: My friend Halima and her daughter, Aisha, came to visit. Jibril is Halima's son and one of Eli's first friends ever, but he didn't come. He was at an acting class.
Friday: We went to Rocky Mountain Arsenal. It is very close to our house and we had never been there before. We took a wildlife drive and saw some deer and bison. We played in the kid discovery room and had fun. We happened to see Eli's best friend, Evan there along with his mom and brother.
We had movie night. We watched a new Disney movie called Frozen that Eli has been asking to watch. It was good and I enjoyed it too. We also ordered pizza.
Saturday and Sunday were General Conference. We watched it on the TV. Eli and Diego played pretty well together all weekend. They can get pretty creative sometimes and it is fun to observe. They also got to sleep in a hideout Saturday night. They took the drawers out of their train table, set up some blankets, added pillows and even a makeshift night table with an alarm and slept there all night!
Eli also entered a Lego contest at the library. He had to build something from a book- He built a treehouse from Swiss Family Robinson. It was great, but it didn't end up winning. (I really should have taken a picture- oops!)
Monday: We went to the rec center. Diego had a tumbling class and Eli and Ruby got to go to KidWatch while I exercised. It was Ruby's first time going and she didn't want me to leave, but she did fine.

My little walker!
Ruby started walking and she loves it! She is the cutest little girl and looks like such a cute little person.
She has started to resist the stroller and just wants to walk.
