End of School

 Josh is off on some Fridays with his new job, so we switched our school week to Monday-Thursday in March. The new science book we tried this year was a little deep for the kids. I started to summarize the lessons for them and we did a few of the experiments. This was the Lazarus experiment with an ant.
Drowning an ant is hard! The salt brought it back to life.

Doing spelling challenges together 
We stuck with school and finished out the year. It helped us to keep our routine going. They both finished with good grades. The second half of school is usually harder anyway, so we were all happy to finish. 
Last day of school was May 14, 2020
She had to have Camo in a picture 
The kids picked out a few summer toys to keep them busy. We got a kiddie pool too, all the above ground pools have been sold out. 
We wanted to do something to celebrate the end of school, but we ended up going to Vacherie to buy a third vehicle. Josh drives 120 miles to work per day and his truck fuel was a lot. He started looking for a little car to drive for work. He found a standard Mini Cooper that gets awesome fuel mileage.

He didn't want me to take his picture. He says it's fun to drive. I can't drive a standard, so I wouldn't know. 
 It looks so small, but is bigger than it looks. Adults can even fit in the back seat.  
It fits perfect in the garage

She did a great job! The ballet and pointe dances were so powerful and beautiful this year! I always get teary when I watch and this year was no different.  I volunteered on Sunday for the last showcase I was with a class next to Jules and got to watch some of her dances from back stage.  Gianna and Jules were both in this showcase, so my parents came to watch on Sunday A long weekend for the big girls, but they love doing it

February 2025

The girls had dress rehearsal for dance. I went on the Thursday class on the 6th. We got to see a preview of the dances.  Hudson had his first driving session on February 10th. He has to do 8 hours of driving with 2 hours being at night. I waited in the parking lot until he left. We did pretty good waiting while he was gone, but we kept checking Life 360. He said it was fine, I thought he was a little nervous. Afterward, he said it was no big deal. I guess we shouldn't be surprised, since he has been driving off road vehicles since he was young.  We spent Valentine's Day at home and made pizzas.  My birthday was on a Friday and I had work. Josh surprised me with an orchid for my desk.  I had lunch with some of my family at Albashas. Dillon was in town for something else and was able to come to lunch.  We celebrated our 19th anniversary by going to The little Big Cup in Arnaudville.  The food was really good. I had the crab cake and eggplant stack and Josh h...
