Leffers happenings in May 2016

Made a burlap wreath with my crafty friend Evelyn.

This is mine.

Before- my door...

plus some bling bling yellow...

 

I went with Lukey on his class trip to Christian Credit Union

This was his $100 bill he designed. A lobster and a Christmas tree on it. That's my boy!

Emma did her make up one day.

Sweetheart.

Trampoline time.

Our great buddy Paul turned 40 the end of April so Ken and I made a quick road trip to Coaldale to celebrate.

This is Isaac's daily journal from school. "Today I made bubbles." He went to the Telus world of science center and had a special bubble presentation.

The beginning of a season with lots of park dates.

and a new season of soccer.

 "Meow."

I did a workshop with the grade 12 class in May on resumes, cover letters and job interviews. Emma sometimes tagged along and hung out with Daddy or some of the staff while I did my workshop.

Slurpee season!

Emma falling asleep while reading craft books.

 

water playdates at the Veldkamp's.

Grandma and Grandpa came out for a short visit and we went to Clifford E Lee bird sanctuary.

Isaac had an awesome Spring concert which Grandma and Grandpa and Auntie Trixie came to watch.

Emma turns 4!

 

Our baby turned four April 23rd. She's growing up way to fast, as well as the rest of the crew. I asked Emma to not get any bigger and her response was " but I wanna get bigger like the guys (her brothers) and I wanna have more birthday parties."

She got a flashy bike helmet.

Ken took the boys to the dollar store and they got to pick out gifts for Emma. They chose markers, notebooks, craft stuff. They did great for a bunch of boys....I do think she received some hockey cards from one of them.

We had a birthday party with her little buddies and she loved it.

Jared, Travis, Cohen, Josh, Emily, Emma and Talia.

The girls!

I loved Talia's face in this picture watching Emma open her gift.

Tea party time.

sillies.

This tea set was a gift from us. I helped Emma paint it and then we baked it in the oven.

She also got a head band kit and we made lots of head bands together. Little girl you are such a blessing and mommy's little sidekick. You make things so fun and interesting in this household and just a bit girly. You love crafts, doing Daddy's hair, singing, going to the playground, shopping and being a bit bossy. You also know how to wrestle with the guys, play lego and cars, and fit right in with all your brothers. Happy Birthday Sunshine girl.

April 2016

My past neighbor and great friend from Coaldale was in Edmonton on her daughter's band trip. They had a pitstop at the mall for 1/2 the day so Gayle and I got to catch up. So lovely to see her.

Anticipating Spring weather, green grass and sunshine. These two cousins have become little bff's.

Playing in Uncle Dwayne and Aunty Trixie's park/yard. It's always a great time.

Luke taking the quad out.

Sam being Mr. Cool

Brennan taking Andrew for a ride inbetween leaf pile pick ups.

Family bike  ride in terwilligar on a Sunday night. So fun, lots of hills, river views, and a cool bridge.

This bike/walk bridge hangs underneath an Anthony Henday bridge over the North Saskatchewan River.

The Staff challenged the high school soccer team over lunch break one day. 2-1 in a shoot out with the Staff winning. So fun to watch!

Staff team!

PICS put on a learning carnival in April and staff and students worked really hard setting up the whole school to display what the students have been learning at school.

Lukey's class.

Sam's

Andrew's class did "are you smarter than a fifth grader." Thankfully mommy made a lucky guess and actually beat Andrew on his question. The students won in the end!

Our mom and sisters annual shopping trip took place in Calgary in April too. So great to see all these wonderful ladies and to purchase some goodies.

Dinner together.

The boys figured out all their hockey stats for the play offs.

Sam finished his first piano session and had his first recital.

Andrew completed his second session and his second recital. They are learning lots and it was so neat to watch them perform in front of an audience.
