Petting Zoo

Marsha's petting zoo came to ELP yesterday. Adrian had a good time as usual petting and talking to the animals which included a cow, a donkey, a llama, an antelope, goats, rabbits, and pot-bellied pigs. The two little pigs were only 3 weeks old and it was the first time they were separated from their mom. So the pigs spent much of the time huddled and shivering in the corner of their pen. One pig kept climbing on the back of the other one. Adrian pointed and said, "Look a piggyback ride - get it?" I thought it was so funny. Later at dinner Adrian was recounting the tale to Morgan and Andy. At the end of the story Adrian said, "That was a good one!"

Hans's Playhouse

Our friend, Hans, recently received a Rainbow Playstructure from the Make-a-Wish Foundation and invited his friends over for a playdate to break it in. The boys had a great time playing and eating pizza while the moms had an awesome French-inspired lunch provided by Lara, Hans's mom.

Book Fair Poster Contest

Glen Loch Elementary recently had their book fair in the library. There was a poster contest with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prizes awarded for each grade level. Morgan spent a few hours on Easter Sunday making a poster. She ended up getting 1st prize for the second grade! She was so excited and we were so proud of her. She got a blue ribbon and a certificate for $8 toward a book from the book fair. She chose the American Girl book "Meet Samantha" as her prize.
