Weekend of parties....

Two skating classes Saturday morning... our regular "Specialty Class" where they work on jumps, spins, and power skating, then a new class called "Theater on Ice". I thought it would be good for Jasmine to take the class since she is so unexpressive in her skating. Only two people signed up since there was a competition that day. So...they made the class free since it was the first time they were offering it. Suddenly there were 9 people in the class. Next off to Charlotte and Camille's birthday party- two twin sisters who are alternately in Jasmine's class at school. They always have a book exchange at their party. Here's all the kids crowding around waiting for their number to be called so they can get the book of their choice:) A dog book, of course! From the birthday party, we went straight to the end of the year Chandler Children's Choir cookout at Tumbleweed park:)

growing our own salad!

Jazzy and I decided to grow our own microgreens and salad. We already make our own sprouts in glass jars, but the microgreens are a bit bigger. I got tired of paying 5.00 for a little handful of microgreens at Whole Foods every few days when they cost about 40cents to grow. I also ordered a vertical grower for larger salad greens. Don't know where we're going to put it yet:) Here they are after only 4 days! Spicy radishes, sunflowers, and broccoli for the sulphurophanes (for increasing the detox pathways in the body). The only problem is that Jasmine checks them about every 15 minutes when she is home. They grow really fast but not THAT fast!

CEE Art Show

School art show. Jasmine had three pieces of artwork. The other kids had more since Jasmine didn't complete hers:(. The work that she completed was nice though! A recycled can! We HAVE to get these glasses fixed... AGAIN! This was a drawing of something looking like an aquarium. Upper right drawing.

CEE Spring Concert:)

The theme was "The Movies". Third grade did "Harry Potter". There were 101 Dalmations, Goldfinger, Wizard of Oz, Jurassic Park, other Disney movies:) Here's some of the Harry Potter clan after the show. Owen, Adrian, Isabelle, Sophia, Jasmine, Jacey, Sam.

Happy Mother's Day!

My present:)

More photos from Broadway on Ice...

Broadway on Ice....

Today we had two performances of the Broadway on Ice show at Ice Den Chandler. I was the mom "in charge" of five munchkins of the Level C group 1 age 9 and under...not than anyone could ever be "in charge" of these hellions. They are SO rowdy!! Eighty seven skaters participated all the way from newbies to National Champion pairs skaters. I have a million photos and videos:) Ready to go on the ice! It was just a party all day and all night:)) Just some girl talk- Jazzy, Maria, Paolina. Ha..you wish!!! We brought apples and other "healthy snacks"..but one of the other moms sharing the locker room with us brought candy, muffins, garbage...as well as an ipad. I was not too happy about that:( Of course, that's all they ate, then didn't feel well. Maria, Abigail and Jazzy looking at a skating book:) On dinner break checking out Marilyn Monroe:)
