Cute Little Ducks!
I know my friend Shannon will totally appreciate this post. Yesterday afternoon, I saw the bus go by to go down to the end of the cul-de-sac and turn around. And here was this cute little duck family waddling along at the edge of our front yard and the road. I had to run and get the camera. They waddled through our yard, crossed our driveway and without batting an eye, the mom marched right through our neighbors fence and waddled on through their backyard. I had no idea there was a hole in that fence! I had to round up my kids at that point so I didn't get to see where in the world they were heading. I wanted to scoop them up and take them Shannon but I wasn't equipped and didn't want to risk me and my kids getting attacked by an angry mother duck. My kids loved the little yellow one which you can see best in the picture below. All the others were the color of the mother. So cute and fluffy! A great smile for the rainy day!

Benjamin's Class Play
Presenting the Class Play!
This is Henny Penny as presented by Benjamin's Autistic Support class. They did such an awesome job!
Benjamin played Cocky Locky!
Foxy Loxy and other cast members.
Benjamin wearing one of the peddler's caps from Caps For Sale.
How I managed to get them all there and sitting for this one remains a mystery. I think it was the bribery of snacks. They were actually pretty good while we there and loved cheering Benjamin on! Even Matthew clapped at the end and said "Yay!" Fun times!Monday, June 15, 2009
Moustache!
My awesome friend Melinda sent me a pattern for this moustache and I had to make it! So cute!

Memorial Day Picnic Watermelon Eating Contest
Gathering the kids for the watermelon eating contest
Lining up and spacing apart
Once we told Benjamin the point was to eat fast, he was going for it!
Jacob, Cami, Evan and Morgan
Morgan and Anna
Andrew and William
Whitney and Cami were going for it! They ate 3 apiece. Cami was definitely the girl champion.
Jacob doing his best to eat one. I think he ate 2.
Benjamin, Morgan, Sam and Anna finishing up.
Evan chows down.
Andrew was the winner after eating 5! His siblings are cheering him on.
Benjamin ended up eating 3 but it wasn't enough to win. Still fun and yummy!
Super Boys!
Evan came to me demanding to know where his cape was last week so I went digging and found them. I had only made ones for Evan and Benjamin so he insisted that Jacob needed one. I dug out some fabric and here they are-my Super Boys!
Super Evan can ride lightning fast....
Super Benjamin can eat super fast....
and Super Jacob can eat his popsicle and make a mess super fast:)
