Winter Concerts and Art show

 Carson just had his 2nd grade winter concert.  They sang songs about winter and snow.  My favorite song was called "Snirt" (snow and dirt).  It was adorable and he was very proud of himself.  😃

 Rylee just participated in an all district choir festival.  It was all the elementary, middle and high schools from our area.  It was a great concert.  Rylee was in awe of the high school choirs.

Here's a little snippet from the performance...

 We just went to the kids STEM fair and art show.  Little did I know that Carson had two pictures on display and one won an award!  Proud mom right here!  😍

Happy 8th Birthday Carson!

 Instead of a party this year, Carson decided to invite his two best buddies on an overnight getaway.  We started the day at the Family Fun Center in Tukwila for some video games, laser tag and bumper cars.  

 After the fun center we went to a hotel for some McDonalds and pool time.  The boys were so well behaved.  It was a little calmer and quieter than the usual sleepovers I do with Rylee and her friends.  The boys had a great time!

 On Carson's actual birthday, he woke up to fresh baked cinnamon rolls and a room full of balloons.  Talk about spoiled!

 I brought him lunch (Subway per request) and ate with him at school.  It was fun to see his friends and watch the class sing to him.  He requested to bring doughnuts to share with his class.  He told me later that night that his favorite part of his birthday was having his mom visit him at lunch.  Be still my heart!! 😍

After school he opened presents.  He was very excited to get his Nintendo Switch.  "Best Birthday Ever!"  We celebrated his birthday dinner at Applebees (his choice).  Such a fun and special day for this little man!
