Recap #5 -- April 2010 (Half-way through these recaps!)

Seriously... aren't they precious?!?

One Sunday morning these three boys saw that Candi had a yellow shirt on and so they decided that they had to wear the same color! Hence... matching outfits. Seth asked me on the way out to church where my yellow shirt was... and if you know me at all, you know that "matching" outfits were never something I was super-fond of... to say the least. :)

However, if they choose to match... I'll let them!

We had the blessed opportunity for Diego and Jose's entire Kindergarten to come out for their "field day" during the Week of the Child. It was actually really fun!

A hundred kindergartners, four teachers, one principal, one bus driver, and all the CVE staff that could help out... we were quite the group!!! And Limon was amazing enough to arrange a hay ride for the kidlets, which was something most of them had never, ever experienced... I appreciated all the help and everyone's willingness to keep an eye out... ;)

And for Week of the Child, you also get... Dress-up Days! All through the week the kids had to dress up for something different... [above] Candi, Diego, Jose, and Marcos pose before heading to school on Crazy Day!

Aaron and Nereida look pseudo-happy here, but actually this was a tough one... they both chose their outfits (including the face-painting), but after they had them on and were ready to go... embarassment struck. It was hard to get them out the door... but they made it!

After Tami had her baby, Kaeb, and started carrying him in a sling... oh boy. We have never had a fad catch on so quickly... ;)

This was seriously the only way the girls would carry around their teddy bears for awhile...!

And... Diego turned 6! It's incredible to me that he was only 2 years old when he got here (he turned 3 shortly thereafter)... he still has the same face and smiley eyes, but he's quite a bit taller! [About ready to pass up Aaron, if truth be told!] Please pray that Diego's heart is soft toward the things of God, and that his pride in well-doing and being "a good boy" would be taken away.

Thanks for your continued prayers, everyone!!!
