Easter @ 3801

We went to 3801 early afternoon to celebrate Easter.  The kids and adults had fun dying eggs and hanging out.  Lucky for us, the weather was perfect for our annual EaStEr EgG hunt.

Exceptional Explorer

Samuel was chosen by his peers and teacher to be April's Exceptional Explorer!  The character trait for this month is "Optimism" apparently he demonstrated this trait throughout the month. :)  We are very proud of him.
I should probably mention that we almost missed the "short" reception that was held from 7:40AM-8AM.  Apparently instead of hitting snooze this morning, I hit the off button on my alarm.  Ugh....when I finally awoke it was 7:35--of all days for this to happen!  We got dressed and ready in record breaking time-- Samuel and I walked into the school at 7:50 and they were just starting to announce the students names.  We made it!    

Happy 11th Birthday Isabelle
