Late March/Early April

A new day, a new special balloon to carry around and sleep with. 

We went to a Touch a Truck event where Isaac and Maya both got to sit on this motorcycle. Not pictured were the trash trucks, fire trucks, etc.

 

I did a run with my friends.

Isaac and Maya having a little snuggle time in Zev's hammock chair.

Isaac won student of the month! I was so happy for him.  He won it for the quality of independence which is perfect for him.

Mimi got to come and see him get his award.

We went to meet the teacher night (IN THE BUILDING!) Maya made herself right at home.

 

Isaac and his wonderful teacher, Mrs. Garcia.

 

T and Mrs. Pondrom who is one of his three teachers.  T dressed up fancy for open house in tie dye and his suit.

 

April Fun

Here are some pictures of Zev with his favorite horse, Midnight.  He told me I had to take them for his bar mitzvah slide show. 

I finally got to meet Rebecca's new baby, Hannah!

 

I took Maya to the zoo with friends.  She had lots of fun.

Here she is as a baby dino.

 

Now she was pretending to be asleep and dreaming about poop.

 

All four of these kids are in a family where they are one of four and there are tons and tons of boys.  They love to be wild and make potty jokes together.  The moms have given up.

 

I caught these two holding hands on the way out.  How cute are they?

 

Spring Break

For spring break we hung out at home, but then I took Zev and Tahl to Atlanta to have a trial visit at the private school they will attend next year.  Spoiler alert: THEY GOT IN! HOORAY!

Before our visit, I took Tahl (and Zev got to come along) to the Center for Puppetry Arts.

 

Here is Tahl with Rolf!

T loved this guy.

I have always been a Jim Henson super fan and a big Sesame Street lover, so I had to get lots of pictures too.

Even Zev got in on the action, though he would like everyone to know that he is too mature for Sesame Street.

 

Dreams come true people.  Here is Tahl with his absolute favorite, Cookie Monster.

 

 

And I have been obsessed with Grover for years.

Miss Piggy was my favorite muppet as a child. She always acts like how I want to act (or actually do...)

I let Tahl get his own puppet to take home to add to his extensive puppet collection.  Meet Brock I. Lee.

 

We went to watch Noah's baseball game.

We also went to visit the library, played with cousins, and had the best time.  It definitely made the big kids more excited about moving to Atlanta this summer.

March Fun (or not so fun.)

In the first half of March the Lund family finally caught Covid.  Consequentially, we had a boring few weeks.  Everyone made it through like a bad cold or a light flu.  Isaac got strep too, so he had it the worst. 

 

There was some snuggle and read time as we were stuck at home.  Poor Tahl had to miss Sky Ranch with the whole fifth grade. 

After we got better there was some Purim fun for Miss Maya.

We went to the Dallas World Aquarium to make to Tahl for having to miss such a big fifth grade overnight trip.

This is just a silly picture of Tahl and a horse.

We went to the arboretum for the first day of spring break.

 

Look how much these kids have grown in the past three years!
